Marc Lacrosse
I am 46, married, two sons.
I stopped playing OTB ten years ago.
I began to play at ICCF for the millenium open but ICCF timing is a bit too slow for my taste (three or six months for a game is OK but more than one year is too long).
I like playing unorthodox openings in correspondence chess.
