Why do people wish to post their blitz games?
I do not understand the value of posting a game that took under 10 minutes to play. The standard of chess will be poor and the result decided by tactics and mistakes.
What is the point in other people looking through such games? If you cannot spot the tactical errors yourself then you ought not to play so quickly.
Please, no more threads full of blitz games.

I would like to add to this and say if you must post your blitz games - can there just be a single topic for them instead of new ones springing up here there and everywhere.

I don't have very many regular games, I have 6 to be exact. I find it fun to look at blitz games, because it could be pretty interesting to see what moves you or the other player may have missed. Or to see how perfectly you can play under time pressure.

Speaking of blitz I should be at a blitz tournament right now, but I can't even get transportation right now, so I'm here 🙂

I made my thread to try to consolidate all blitz games into one thread
this would reduce the vast number of individual blitz threads, and provide an opportunity for people to correct their play.
for example, tactic misses, endgame help, and opening corrections.
blitz quality, overall, is poor, but if we focus on individual aspects of any given game, blitz analysis can be useful. especially since blitz games can be produced for analysis much faster than regular games.
