I remember back in high school, my senior year, at the fourth and final round of the postseason tournament. I had won all 4 of my games and was awaiting the result of a match between 2 strong players that also had perfect records so far, to see who would actually get the trophy, since they would have better tie breaker scores. Luckily for me, they drew, and so I won the tournament and the trophy. And later one called to me, "You only got that because we were both equally better than you." (I couldn't deny it, either.)
"Also, what is your comeback to end all comebacks to someone who accuses you of cheating in chess, saying things like "cheater!!!" online?"
Maybe something like "You could have taken my queen on move 12 - do you really think my cheating is that bad?"
I realise that blitz tournaments, particularly face to face, allow the use of another strategy, namely calls and comebacks.
I would like to expand my chess vocabulary, and I'm very interested in what you guys use in particular situations. Here is one example I am planning for future use, with respect to Dark Knight Rises:
1) opponent very low on time, but winning in position and starts smiling:
"when your time runs out (pause, make a move) ... then you have my permission to lose"
Also, what is your comeback to end all comebacks to someone who accuses you of cheating in chess, saying things like "cheater!!!" online?
