Yup, you got lucky there not to be punished for your mistakes, although the ending is one to love, good game!

Nothing personal, but is THIS your immortal? Was your opponent blindfolded?

Hilarious! Laughing

The tactics trainer on chesstempo or chess.com would help you.

There is perfect play, which unfortunately nobody has ever seen yet. And there is also perfect luck play, a great example of which you just saw!

I don't care what you call the level of play, that was a really cool mate. Nice job.

I'm done being nice here. What, are you proud of the "great game you just played" (the forum title description)? There is no such there as perfect play because every chess move has an advantage and a disadvantage. This isn't perfect luck play this is perfect stupid play from both sides. A 1200 clown on chess.com (probably less than a 500 in uscf rating) is gonna try to defend their own bad game, come on why are you trying to attack my comment I was trying to be nice on something bad which is hard


now now, have a joint, lets all calm down.

Go get 'er tiger. You're right: no one with less than your rating should have the temerity to boast about an accomplishment.

Dude, you totally missed the point. See the OP posted in Game Showcase? See that posts in here hardly call for analysis or pedantic criticism? So be a doll and stop overreacting over a game in which the OP already claimed luck played a major factor over his/her play.

Go crazy on something else, like...chill pills?

This game was interesting for several reasons. The players ratings are low yes, but the game was a shoot out. It wasn't the typical high rated player positional pawn pusher game. I liked it and the mate was beautiful. Like the God's granted her life. OK I am a bit much I know. Have a great day guys and be cool. Its just a game.Cool

Are you being sarcastic cause I can't really tell mostly because your rating is only 1500...

My chess.com rating sucks because I rarely play on this website anymore, ICC is much better if you are really serious about chess. Chess.com ratings are off by hundreds of points. My bullet rating used to be 2100 and on ICC my highest was 1700. My blitz on ICC is 1800 and that took me a lot of effort to get compared to chess.com. I never said that and why would you brag about something horrible - Why brag at all because that's not the point of these forums.


...and so, like I said, you're saying that no one below your rating should post something they're proud of in the game-showcase-forum or you'll be "done being nice".

I'm sorry if you felt attacked by my answer to your comment, seems like you missed the harmless humour in the expression "perfect luck play". It's ironic that although you don't seem to have a sense of humour, you think you know what a clown is. Buddy, clowns do one of the best jobs ever. Next time you feel attacked by someone and need the urge to complain about it, just feel free to do that. But avoid complaining and at the same time doing the same you're complaining about, because it makes no sense.
