I play better when I'm at university because I'm alone and connession isn't so bad. When I'm at home everyone call/distract me and it's hard to focus on game. It's no coincidence that I lost my last 3 matches in a row at home
Interesting to read how you explain your recent drop in form Casso. During my studies in Sports Management I had some basic psychology focusing on athletes, and attribution theory was one of a few things I found interesting... Some of what defines a top-athlete is how they attribute their success and defeat. You attribute your bad results to external factors (that are out of your control), such as slow connection, telephone ringing, parents disturbing you and so on. I'm not buying it, it's too easy way out to explain your bad results. How does a bad connection have anything to do with how you perform in a turn-based game? It's not like it's making you screen-lag or anything. Are you receiving more calls from friends when you are at home vs at university? In that case, you could always turn off your phone for those 1-2 hours of playing.
The self-serving bias is the tendency to attribute successes to internal factors and failures to external/situational factors. This bias tends to increase as time passes after an event. Therefore, the further in the past an event is, the more likely people are to congratulate themselves for successes (internal) and to blame the situation (external) for failures.
You told me yourself that you always predict loss for yourself in EAC in the prediction game. Except in the games vs Joschi, myself and Ray. I assume this is because these were games you felt confident you were gonna win(no offence taken ;P). The games vs Ray and me were the ones where you did the most amount of mistakes so far in EAC. Coincidence? I doubt it.. If you'd try to attribute your poor results to internal factors, you might come to a different conclusion that could improve your performance later on in the championship: Did I underestimated my opponent? Did I lack focus and did I not concentrate 100%? Things like that, so that you don't make the same mistakes again (which you did vs me one week after the games vs Ray). Now you also lost your third game in a row to Almog at home, but chances are equally big in my opinion, that you'd lose to him in University as well. You're a great player Casso, you've had some really convincing wins in this championship, but if you want to be in the top with Random, Almog and so on, you have to be more critical to your own performance, IMO!

Well honestly I'm having abit trouble reaching through to Master. He is not online that much, it can go days before he reads his messages. His prefered schedule is playing during the day or the night; I work during the day and I sleep at night. Master, can you suggest a date and time this week during the evening that you could play? I can play as late as 21 GMT
