Am wondering what you think about 1 min chess?
I know this is a correspondance site... but still we have RHP blitz.
I am getting addicted to it... is a lot of fun. I played a 48 move game last night... and lost ! darn.
(Wonder, is it ungentlemanly to play the pirc defense as black?)
Notice in RHP/ uchess ratings, players up to 1600 are quite unsound, the difference between 1200 & 1500 is much smaller & dubious psycological tactics work as well as chess. Remember one guy sacrificing both rooks and the long queen moves made me loose on time! clever sod...
But over 1700.... I leave these one's be most of the time .... can play whole sound games in a minute... it is quite impressive.

BTW, check out Kingcrusher's 1 min blitz games on youtube. He actually commentates during them and wins the majority against 2000+ rated players. It's really impressive.

re can't belive you included chess in the title 😉 ha ha
the link does prove some proper players do ....but know what you mean.
It seems more approachable then normal chess as you can choose to play well or just click very fast.
Is my opponent disconnecting bad form? Or is that how it's played in blitz chess... that's the second disconnect (different opponent) so far... no records it seems except to copy the game pgn...
