Mouse Slip - how to react?

I would say that meme is dead but it wasnt dead when you posted it so i'll let it pass.

That happens way more often than it should. Same with golf. I can't count the times I've hit a horrible putt, knowing I missed it by a mile. Walking towards the hole in disbelief that a putting stroke could look so much like a seizure. Only to see that horrible miss curve towards the hole and go in. Had I hit it the way I wanted, it never would have come close. 

It is the same with all games. The more you practice, the luckier you get. 

i make mouseslips a lot

You were in the wrong, you must give the game to opponent if he claims mouse slip. It is only fair, mouse slip means he was about to make a great move but through no fault of his own made a bad move. You must pretend like he made a great move and resign.

Totally_Winsome comes in with the best answer! Excellent point. 

A mouse-slip is a daft move just like any other - and daft moves deserve to be punished.

where does this stuff come from. bad parenting?

Nah, just some dude requesting a draw after having made a daft move. He claimed the daft move was the result of a mouse-slip. I didn't grant the request for a draw - that's all...

there are no way to have a Solution

If I ever mouse slip and blunder even just a pawn I resign immediately resign, stop playing chess for a day and continue tomorrow. If my opponent mouse slip (which is quite obvious when they do) I always offer a draw.

I had a situation where I abandoned the idea of castling king side, and instead wanted to move my QR--but when I clicked on the rook, it castled me queen side... I was completely exposed and lost the game.  It was not a mouse slip--but it's not what I wanted to do... I asked my opponent about how to correct it, and the opponent simply ignored me and played on.  I don't blame them--but what to do in this case? 

If you click your king and then the rook, it assumes you wanted to castle. If you click your king and then decide not to castle - I think clicking on your king again will get you out of castling. Or simply click on any other piece before trying to move the rook.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, for some inexplicable reason, the chess.com setting asking whether you want to drag pieces to move or click them doesn't disable the other option, it just optimises things a bit for dragging.  So these kind of errors can happen when you had forgotten you clicked a piece.

I will agree to make a seemingly insignificant move so my opponent can correct his mistake, as long as the mouse-slip/mistake is clearly a mistake and not an after thought. 

there is a confirm move on the phone app..isnt there confirmation on the desktop version? I have accidently let go of the button in a twitch, and also done an accidental premove.. I never premove. all of a sudden the piece is moved and gone..very frustrating to lose a game you spent 20 minutes on to lose to a glitch,..

The vast majority of mouse-slips occur in Bullet or Blitz where having confirm move switched on is infeasible.  There's no real reason for mouse slips to happen in slower chess unless it is also in a time scramble so they will be a lot more rare.

Sure, rare, I don't want to lose, rarely, to a glitch. If its too fast to have premove turned on for blitz, then no problem, turn it off. That's no reason for them not to provide it. I want it. They have it for the phone so its already built in. I want it here too. I want. I want.

I assume it is there on the phone because playing on a phone screen is just generally a poor experience where it is a lot easier to make such mistakes.  No idea why it isn't there on PC other than that it would be so rarely used by anyone that they don't consider it a priority I guess.

I drop the piece, I have a twitchy hand. Medical condition. So I like to confirm it. Same as on phone. If your reading this admin, ! please.
