Lost on time cry babies

Only Chess


I'm sick of it. Unless your new to chess or a patzer then your excused. If you do not want to be timed out on a game then play 21 days per move and 21 days timbank. Period!


I play at another site that puts me on holiday if I am down to a few hours. I never time out there. Everywhere else, it happens when I get busy with life and fail to log in and move. Crying about it, on the other hand, is senseless.

Do what I do ... gloat and mock them for crying over it. 🙂

Guess they were too busy learning spelling and grammar!
You're, not "your" was needed in these cases.

If we're being pedantic then saying "period" after a period is also superfluous, unless of course you're going for emphasis, in which case an exclaimation mark will suffice 😉.

i am glad this is a chess site, not a grameer or spealing competition, if they were better at maths they might know how many hours there is in 3 days? its 72. loads of time to save skull, and the money saved on tissues, could go towards a sub, only 7p a day, play unlimited games to lose on the clock more tissues its a catch 22. 😀

Thanks for the grammar lesson. Is the following sentence grammatically correct? You suck.

Speaking of spelling and grammar...

It should be "QueenNabber". 😉

Thanks for that C J Horse, hunterknox, roma45 and SwissGambit. If queennabber spent less time checking peoples grammar, maybe he/she/it could get a job and purchase a subscription to help support the site. 😉

Unless you call them full stops of course
in which case "period" is not superfluous.

Possibly "QueenNabber" would be more logical but my moniker is a homage to Bronstein and Mr B S Queenabber, his final "opponent" in the brilliant book, "200 Open Games". The game/analysis is a lovely piece of whimsy.

logical, but ...

an homage ...

That's the problem with correcting people. It always backfires.
It's better to just have a little understanding and not be rude.
