    Kirk…
     Do not bullet your opening. (20mins plus 2 ni, dili ni blitz)
     Do not try to remember every line, play with your tactics and ideas in
    gaining control over the position. (if wala na nasubay sa imong gitun.an
    nga theory)
     Try to remember traps during the opening. Use your time during the
    middle, semi blitz during the end game (if and only if your time is below
    60 seconds)
     Do not give up that easily, (yahay sila ug mo surrender tag dali)
    Joshua…
     Do not stress out yourself (makawala sa focus ang way uyab pero
    mas makawala sa focus ug stress atong otok)
     Look for tactics (2 moves ahead if needed)
     Think first the consequences before putting your pieces in that
    square ( mao raba jud ni kapildihan nimo ra)
     Continue having solid defense and position. (Dako na kaayo kag
    improvement nakita naho na )
    GOOD LUCK!!!
