You'd be surprised by the number of people who play 1. Kd3, thinking they just won.

Probably about 1/5 of the testing games I tried to get started with that move, and I knew, without even continuing, that the next two minutes would be worthless.

You should've used a wazir!

I've thought about that, but I decided that the ability for the king to be brought out in the endgame is too good for that to be removed by changing the piece to a wazir.

Wait, was that sarcasm?

No, that was a genuine comment. After seeing 3 players do that 1.Kd3, I thought, "Man, BlueYoshi could've made it wazirs. I mean, the kings are really used to only defend the hill [I don't bring the king out during endgames], so why not?"

When you get into endgames with high level players (like, really good ones; a lot better than me) they will use a different piece to guard the hill, and use the extra king to either escort a pawn, or other things that high level players do that I don't understand. I personally have only done it once or twice, but I've played against multiple people who have regularly.
