Pro tip: You can skip the games and just go straight to crying!

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

I thought that was the whole purpose of your Stats page.

Do you really only play blitz?

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

No, I'm actually a daily game player.

Bullet and blitz stress me out.

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

Then I can't guess your username for chess.com lol

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Was there a Picard Maneuver? Lol

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

Yup. 1300 blitz! And that was the only style

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

I guess I can surmise that either you don't play on chess.com or your user is not "picardmaneuver" all one word all lower case.

... Or you are gaslighting me... :/

And I thought I had come up with a unique handle when I signed up for Lemmy... But I guess I shouldn't underestimate Star Trek fans. They're everywhere.

Also, damn! That Picard has been playing on chess.com since 2012! I only got into chess in the post-pandemic boom. I wish I had when I was a kid, but I didn't appreciate the game like I do now.

Same. I found chess at 36. I mean I played as a kid, but I didn't get serious until now :)

How about 10 minutes of games and then 90 Bullets?

[-] jia_tan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 7 months ago

I was going to say 10 games than 90 minutes of crying, but yours is way better. Although one bullet would be enough.

[-] Linsensuppe@feddit.org 3 points 7 months ago

Its not enough to equal the pain I felt in those 10 minutes

10 games and 90 minutes of crying

This establishes “a fun loop”.
