This was a timed game I played at chess.com, which is part of why I made a mega blunder at the beginning, as black. I had thirty total minutes, yes, but still. Thanks to all the "sac" threads on RHP lately, I came back up with this:
This PGN could not be parsed.
- line 5: Unrecognised token '.Qb5+'
- move 11 could not be played: Invalid PGN : Error converting move c6
[Date "????.??.??"]
[Result "*"]

Originally posted by Fat LadyThanks for letting me know. I saw other posters using OTB for non-correspondence, and thought that was correct; but I always thought it was strange. I'll refrain from using "OTB" when not playing face-to-face over a real board.
OTB = Over The Board, i.e. played against a real-life opponent with a real-life chess set on a real-life chessboard. I think you're taking OTB to mean non-correspondence chess time control.
