    I did forfeit a ton of games, but yes easily a hundred of my defeats have been like that, or worse.😵

    It doesn't help my chess, but playing fast is fun.😀

    Well as as long you are enjoying yourself DC that's all that matters.

    (pity though, you are getting into good positions through natural
    ability, investing a wee bit of time at the crucial parts of the game
    could see you pulling off a brilliancy or two.)

    When you think you see a good move - that's crucial.

    Look for a better move. Most good moves can be brightened up.

    Look for an in-between move that will turn your good move
    into a killer move.

    I was up to almost 800 games but decided to cut back.

    If you go onto 'Players Tables' then select 'Most Active Player'
    you can see who is the most active player and who has made
    the most moves this month.

    This month (which is three days old) at the moment it's User 447274 who has played over 2000 moves,

    an interesting profile.
