If I am too good, everybody will hate me and nobody would want to play with me again.

So I pretend I am pretty crap so people win against me and feel superior to me.

A good rub on people's ego can't hurt 🙂

What's your excuse?

Can't be bothered to concentrate enough. Booze, sex and drugs - better use of time!

well i could have been honest and said losing is part of my nature, but then i have to deal with self-esteem issues and given my lack of patience, stretching the truth seemed a better option 😉

I'm not visual enough. Once moved my queen into a nice position where she'd be protected by a bishop -- wasn't MY bishop (and he wasn't feeling very protective, either). 😲🙄

Hehe. Things like that happened to me a few times when I started to play with black (in the beginning I only played with white to make things a little less confusing). I kept thinking that the white pieces were mine.

Is it better to be accused of 3(d)?
