Dirty flaggers really grind my gears

Ever been up +12 in bullet with 30 seconds left, and your opponent has less than 8 seconds and just a king and a few pawns... then you watch in terror as he spams pre-moves with his king, and you hopelessly try to spam back but can’t move as fast as he does (because he’s on a computer and you’re on a phone) and you end up losing on time

Yeah... I hate that.

Yes, that's why bullet is not to be taken seriously.

That's what you signed up for when you decided to play bullet. The rules don't change to suit your device.

I know how this feels.  It's pretty frustrating.

actually i might have can't remember, but 30 seconds is more than enough to checkmate if your opponent only has a few pawns and you're up +12
