Game on!!!

 

[Chipmunk]

We had a surplus of players in our team, so keen to arrange a couple of friendlies so club players can get some games.

Suggested matches:

Filthy Sanchez - FilthySanchez32 v MWPP - mwerps
goaldrush - goaldrush v Baller40 - kober3742

Good luck!

Let's lick these pussies.

 

[pickler_mz]

My man timed out, I notice he's not the only one. Nice easy points but why do people do this?

Yeah I'm surprised there's not more of a penalty in club matches for that.

 

[Santoz]

Busy at work & just blundered my queen making a move on the fly.

Lol.

 

[pickler_mz]

I've got a guy in a match I'm playing for another club, and he just made his moves - inside the last hour of his allotted 3 days. And he does this every time, the wee shite (his avatar looks about 8 years old). Here I am thinking, maybe he will time out this time, but he never does. The way I'm playing just now time outs are my best shot.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

This format is such a grind, my opponent uses his maximum allotment of time every single turn.

I see your opponent has 830 games on the go. No wonder they need their maximum time.

It’s annoying as you lose track of what you are trying to do. My opponents higher ranked (1833 ranking in blitz as well!) but I’m looking pretty good in both games.

I’ve had to use the ‘notes’ section in a couple of games.

just don’t get it confused with the ‘chat’!!!

 

[RalfM]

Solid games for me so far. Have crawled my King out of a sticky situation in one and just had my opponent spring a trap for their Queen in the other - going to be interesting to see how both play out.

The second one played out with a resignation. One more point for us.

 

[Jaymin]

My opponent has gone on vacation the move after I took his queen.

I saw that you were doing very well in both your games... They've only got 6 weeks vacation time, so just watch a couple of cricket re-runs, and then you can clean up ;-)

 

[Jaymin]

My opponent is now accusing me of cheating....because he is losing.

 

[Chipmunk]

Yeah, because it’s your fault he missed losing this Queen in both games.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

The dude back from abusing the vacation function?

If you were using an engine it would've shown rook to D8 as soon as he moved his knight, you wouldn't have traded the bishop before the rook move. He could've saved his queen if he were a better player.

Strangely enough he didn’t have time to make a move before he went back on vacation....

Surely you'd have a case to ping him for vacation abuse

What is vacation abuse? - Chess.com Member Support and FAQs

Vacation abuse occurs when players use vacation time simply to prolong games that are completely and hopelessly lost. Please use vacation time in an honest mann

support.chess.com

He went on vacation immediately after blundering the queen (in both games), then came off vacation just to accuse you of cheating (presumably this was done in the chat) and then went on vacation again. Not exactly what the feature is designed for.

It feels like like your best option if he's being abusive would be to report the person:

Chess.com is full of wonderful people, but like any place on the internet there are sometimes bad apples. If you encounter anyone doing any of the following:

I imagine they would look at the game as part of the complaint.
