Play Bullet, it doesn't matter how much you lose but it will improve your longer game.

Good quotes, the Nakamura one probably would stick out to most people since he plays quite a bit of blitz

 

It was no pain to get them: just a copypaste from Wikipedia.

I mean, Wikipedia is not known for being a trustworthy source.

But it can definitely get some quotes right.

An ad hominem is a personal attack in the place of an argument.

My argument was that the general opinion among experienced and even elite players is that bullet provides little in the way of improving in longer time controls.

The International Master in this very thread, for example.

I also argued that his own stats contradicted his assertions, because his abysmal rapid rating quite elegantly stomps out his delusion that bullet contributes in any significant way toward Chess improvement in longer time controls.

I made these valid points which he has yet to comprehend, let alone form a cogent counterargument against, while also attacking his person for being a clown who thinks he can teach Chess while simultaneously sucking at it even more than the average beginner.

He lacks the self awareness to realize it is akin to a homeless person telling people how to run a successful online business.

Ah well my juvenile mind couldn't tell the difference, thanks for enlightening me happy.png

People that I consider much more intelligent than I have misconstrued what ad hominem means, and you seem to know what you’re talking about in most threads, so I wouldn’t say you have a juvenile mind, especially in the context of Chess.

Well I'm in high school so I'm a juvenile teen by definition tongue.png

Though I can spark a meaningful conversation once in a while, my posts have a long way to go to get to the level of some of the others here.

I am in high school as well, so by that metric I too have a juvenile mind.

Although I suppose it is technically true, given that our brain development hasn’t been completed yet.

I must say, the people in this forum who are still juveniles are actually very articulative with their words, and can write very well.

Perhaps they are, I'm certainly not tongue.png Though I believe all of my classmates in school could write as well given the motivation, as well as those of our age on chess.com. I think a lack of motivation for quality posts could be the reason the forums have begun to decline in the views of people like @batgirl...

Ah I've been wondering, would aliens (like yourself) use a binary system like we do? It would be very, very interesting to understand that more, and maybe get people to stop resisting LBTQ+ groups like some do today. Just another idea that popped into my head tongue.png

Play daily chess, it should be more helpful than plan bullets.

Hi! My name is Lauren Goodkind and I’m a respected  chess coach and chess YouTuber based in California: 

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP5SPSG_sWSYPjqJYMNwL_Q

 

I'm very curious.  How does bullet improve one's game?  When i try to play bullet, I can't play my best due to the very short time control!  

mrclashroyalemaster
I play classical, time doesn’t matter, just try to not blunder.
However, people are either cheating, forcing resign by wasting time, or copying alpha zero

Again, Carlsen and Firouzja logged more than 700 hours last year playing blitz and bullet across all platforms. That's nearly two hours a day. 

Anthony Saidy and many others have pointed out that experience in many different types of positions is essential for becoming a strong master. 

I was brought up in the old school where we were all told not to play too much blitz or bullet. But there's more than one way to gain experience and become a world class player.
