Chess - The Inopportune Scale
Fairness comes into play by numerous factors, ranging from fair play policies to touch moves in actual games, penalties in order for blunders and illegally played moves (as in checks gone unnoticed or moving a piece out of order) and more, but it doesn't seem very entertaining with the downfall through lagging internet connection, which is far too familiar for my progress in the online termed tournament routine. Here's a look at a recent game where I happened to be playing and winning against a far higher rated opponent only to be interrupted with the most immodest connection lag within the last fifteen seconds with my being a piece up and regulating the position at hand. It does feel frustrating in every way. In the optimistic side to things, why should it? Technically it might not, given that losing a pivotal championship standard match online in this manner doesn't go misunderstood. In a perfect world perhaps, should it seem that losing a part of hard earned money and well shaped rating wouldn't be an area for concern. The stakes might in fact lower themselves should the idea of proving oneself every now and then just settle down.
