Cool New ICC Command: Pstat

Finally, it is here! Check out the new "pstat" command on ICC to find your score against opponents. The ICC database now tracks your record in all rated games, including wild variants, and also sorts them by color. This record dates back to June 22, 2007. Here's an example of DanielDelPaso (NM Daniel Schwarz) against Smallville (GM Hikaru Nakamura).

You can use pstat to automatically see your record against your current opponent at the start of each new game. Simply type: "set pstat 1" into the main console or find the player statistics button under Options/Set Variables or Settings/Playing 2. This cool feature requires either BlitzIn 2.7 or Dasher 1.2 interface for optimal performance.
