Rate the game /10

This is a good game, in the sense that you can learn from it. Look at the position on move 17: you have little to no space to develop and attack, whereas most of black pieces are in action, ready to launch an attack. I think f4 was not a good idea, as his e pawn becomes very powerful.

So yeah instead of keeping the position locked on ranks 456, it would probably have been better to trade pawns.

So 7/10

I was a little suspicious about the game in the first place but your opponent's account looks pretty clean, so not gonna make a public accusation and lock this thread lol

I just hit 2000 blitz with a new opening, the Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack! Might make a guide on it at this rate!

And you clowned on it when I played it…. Tsk tsk tsk…. “Wannabe alekhine……” is what you said tsk tsk tsk, was the opening that won me eleven games in a row and you clowned on it but now who’s laughing….

Yeah I think most people do, it’s only happened to me once or two times but it’s the most annoying chess thing I’ve had.

In people's opinions, what is a reasonable amount of daily games to play at the same time?

In my opinion there is no objective reasonable (more accurately UNreasonable) amount of daily games.

If you want to limit the amount of time you spend on chess...limit time per move.

I really don't know what you are asking.
