You wait for a while after you know your move so people don't think you move fast.
Signs you're a bad chess player
Sort:
your waiting for a move after mate has taken place....
You do the classic board flip before you lose and your opponent procedes to beat you with the other color.
You call a friend who is extremely good at chess over and he starts freaking out at your position
You believe that choosing the rarest move at your every ply gives you best chance to win.
If you think you can only move a Kingston when its dark out
A knight
None of this is that bad. When I was first starting chess I ended up winning a game on time frustrated with my opponent for getting up and leaving the board with over 40 minutes left on his clock. Turns out he got up and left because I had checkmated him.
good for white
You're bad at chess when:
You lose to me after I blunder two queens within four moves.
You think the saying, "When in doubt, c4!" applies to chess.
u trade every opportunity that you have
u recently had the idea to play a strategy that involves copying your opponents moves
u always check ur opponents king when you can
u teach ur friend the rules and he beats u in the first game

lol (one of the very few genuine laughs I've ever gotten from this stupid thread).
Asking for help in getting the king and queen on their horsies,and asking if each gets two moves as there was now two pieces on the k. /q. squares...

You sac all your pieces to get 6 pawns on the b-file because you think they will control important squares on the a-file.

You play as black in this game to run when the queen comes out.

You think fool's mate should be renamed (YOUR NAME HERE)'s mate because you keep falling for it.
Signs you're a bad chess player:
1. You decide your moves based on the keys your cat steps on as she walks across the keyboard.
"backspace backspace semi colon forward slash? You're a goddamn genius, kitty."
2. You spend your clock time wondering why the next head of the Kanagi family hasn't been able to do jack shit with Enraiha for the entire fucking season.
