Off the top of my head... yes, but I'm guessing it might take close to 50 moves.

The process I use for time scrambles is like this

Obviously these weren't best moves. I was trying to copy how it usually looks during a game.

Keeping the king and queen together does 2 important things:

1) Your queen wont be lost no matter what your premove is
2) Your moves are a short distance, so you can move faster (this is useful in any time scramble).

your playing the queen like it's rook and king vs king. you don't need to move your king so much. I'd really consider refining your technique.

I don't think you understand what is going on in this thread. Read the first post at least.

No, if you don't know what will your opponent move

I read it, you're trying to premove. My point is you can still play with the queen.
