No, not the kind of sleep like when you go to bed... the kind of sleep where your brain just isn't thinking.
Here's a fine example where I "fell asleep". :'(

I sleep (like as night) during OTB games, but my brain still works on the position. When I am fully awake, however, I fall asleep in the sense you mean.

I certainly hope others will post their blunders so I don't have to kill myself. 😞

Thanks for sharing that with us. Not quite as bad as my blunder, but quite interesting.

I must have fallen asleep here. I was lucky he missed 20. Ng5.
