What a waste of 2 weeks work.
I play carefull for weeks at a time then I get excited and try to sneak some moves in at work.
What a bad freakin idea. I would have rather been caught and fired then piss away 2 games like I just did.
Some one punch me now.
I did the same thing... I was trying to get some quick moves in while at work and my boss came over to my cubicle. So I blipped to a different screen, then when he left I hurridly moved in a few games and dropped a piece against a player 300+ point below me!
ARRGH!!!

I only play at work, i don't have the net at home. My job isn't very demanding though so it's all good. What timeout period do you play generally? I moved from 3day T/O's to 7 day T/o's exclusively. Now when i log on i'll look through all my games and work out what i think looks good. Once i've done this for an hour or so i'll go get a coffee and do something else for a bit. Once i've had a break i'll come back and look at the games again, make sure i haven't made an obvious mistake and move. Before i resigned 50 games i'd managed to get much more consistent, i just took on WAY too many games to do this properly. It was taking me 8 hours to update all my games!!! 🙄

Marina I should go for a longer timeout period like you.
That way I can take my time and not feel hurried. I am just now settling in here at RHP.
