What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

What's the deal with my nickname. Well... a long time ago I was playing in a team chess tournament, and we were trying to decide on a name for the team. To win would require many good moves, but I figured if we each made one good move at the appropriate time that would do it. Many years later when the Internet came into its own I started playing chess online my favorite place to play is at chessclub.com and needing a nick I chose ... onegoodmove.
