Im pissing my games away by playing at work!

I will punish myself now.

My rating sux cause I keep playing the same guy, who is a friend but way better than me.




... OH i thought this was a thread where people could complain about how much thier life sux 😀 .. sorry ...

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 piss games away by being pissed. No pun intentended, of course 😛

I retired because work was too stressful and because I wanted just to play chess. Lately, I have taken up watercolors for relaxation because the chess is too stressful.

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.

I threw away a game this arvo... after five, too tired, just having a quick look before leaving and I thought, "Oh, this'll win me an exchange"..... then on the tram home I had this terrible sinking feeling...

When I got home, I confirmed it... it'd win him a bishop...

bollocks.
