Seriously, it has to be rated. That’s the best way to ensure that you’re both trying your hardest. Especially the higher player.

Wait…since I have 9 adoptions and will surely soon have 10 adoptions, does that mean I will also have done a form of adoptception? I will have won at least 10 games each per adopted person, and will have adopted 10 people. So that’s 100 won games. Is that adoptception or is that adoption squared? Or is that just having a big family and I’m overthinking? Lol


nah adoptception is 100-0 against the same opponent


I’m trying to think of an opponent who is so bad that I cannot not win but willing to play me 100 times. Because even with over 1k rating gap things sometimes go wrong as I’m sure you know from all your adoption @LunarLightning. Of course I wouldn’t play them 100 times in a row, don’t think they’d let me, but I mean over time getting to 100 wins 0 draws 0 losses vs them


i think i can adopt u every single day for 10 days, that seems doable but 100 games in one sitting is crazy

Felix beat me on the 7th game. Pretty nice endgame by him lol


I lost the 1st 6 games but won the 7th so avoided adoption. 7th game I played fine but conversion so bad, I didn’t underpromote to a bishop. Making a queen still worked but ridiculous that I didn’t see that bishop also works. I was stressed out when I figured out I was winning so wasn’t thinking of any fun conversions, just “I can’t throw this.”

Dear @felixg711,

You keep missing/refusing this. It's free with no drawbacks.

That's fair. But this can be something he can learn from. Then he can offer a quick queen trade on d5 - or swing the queen to h4 where's it annoyingly sitting in White's camp ...

If you’re talking about Qxd4 in the Caro, yeah I caught onto that later in the match. It’s bullet so I’m premiving and stuff and don’t expect that pawn to be hung so I often miss it

Gotchya. thumbup

I thought you were scared to take it, because of falling behind in development. But in this case, there's no quick Be3 stuff on the queen (b2 hangs), so it's just plain free ...
