Chesscube Quitters

This post is for those who quitted or hate chesscube or those who love chess.com more.

What is your reason to hate chesscube?

Mine is that in chess.com, we have ratings. Even if we think that it is just an online rating, we get really irritated when we lose continuosly. It is not about the game, but about ratings going down very much.

Chesscube adds a second factor which mentally irritates us

!!!!! Cubits !!!!!

I stopped playing chesscube now.

Now I like to play chess as guest on playchess.com because there is nothing to worry about even if our internet connection gets disconnected.

I hate losing won games(mate in next few moves or big material advantage) by disconnection.

Moreover, chess is a mental struggle and these kill the spirit of the game.

I don't like that every single player there just stops moving when they are losing.

What????

What do you mean, what?

You mean opponents who disconnects while losing??

Well, let their timer run down.

I did not say about them. I told it really irritates when my internet connection disconnects when i am totally winning.

chesscube really sucks. The ratings over there are much inflated. I am 1400s in FIDE and 2200s in chesscube. This shows the height of sucking of chesscube.

You asked a question. Scottrf answered you.

Why did you ask if you did not want an answer?

Don't you feel irritated when you have 1500 cubits, you play with 500, hoping to win but lose due to tension. 1000 left. Rematch. Again lost. 500 left.Rematch, a final attempt to get back some. Lost. Bankrupt

Let whose timer run down?

Don't play 500 cubit games then.

and then wait for another day to get ur 30 free cubits :)

Yes. I stopped playing on chesscube days before. Its only ruining my game.

I only used to play 20 cubit games...and presently have around 6000 cubits over there.

do you still play

nope...I stopped playing over there a year ago.

I don't have time to play chess. I have lots to study and coming online here is like a stress reliever for me.

You are from Banglore?? Studying in 10th Std??
