I, Patzer

Was I a little too hard on this poor computer?

So, the question is, was I too much of a patzer to the computer? Feel free to share your opinion, and if you say yes, I won't be offended.

no, you were not too hard on the computer -- or if this was a human competitor.

people must realize that our opponents have all kinds experiences during the day,week,month, years  that affect our moods.   Sometimes we feel like this, taking our time winning, in however a style we wish.    Opponents should never complain about how someone defeats them.   They can always resign......lol....

Too often I hear, oh, you had a faster mate.    I say, big deal.   As long as you see a way to win and exercise the technique needed, that's great.

Keep winning my friend.   Don't let anyone criticize your winning style.   If you need to demolish the computer on this level 10 times or 100 times, that's all good.   If you ever wish to challenge me  or  accept my challenge I might enjoy playing you.......

"was I too much of a patzer to the computer?"

no, in fact the computer played like a patzer, not you.   early on, you took advantage and quickly gained an insurmountable lead -- occasionally toying with the computer, as it nibbled on a few "free" pieces.   However you always held all the trump cards.    And you knew it, as evidenced by your very confident, informative annotations.  Knowing you are superior to your opponent is one thing.   But actually playing that way is another.    You did not overstep your bounds, as then you would have been upset -- losing or drawing.   Position was very close to Stalemate several times, but computer had no chance, as you knew that was machine's only chance to salvage the game.

I respect your play.   I, myself, usually play out games where I stand worse, till I am dead lost.   If you get a winning edge against me, I am curious how you would bring home the win.    Playing against a human the way you did against the computer could yield big psychological gains in future games -- as your opponent realizes what you are capable of.

Have you ever played this computer I before ?    Feel free to send me those games.

I have, in fact played against this compuer, with many wins like this...

you dominated this computer program.    It is a great way to boost your confidence knowing you can crush it.   very well done, and pity the fool who you play that you can administer such punishments to.    

Personally I have won many games on chess.com, but am always willing to acknowledge people better than me who outplay me.   Let's play some games and see how they go.

Basically to ask the world if I'm too much of a patzer towards the Level 1 AI.
