Hello smart chess.com members, (including non-paying members), I was just wondering how many games could have been saved, if blunders could be erased:

Wow, that's incredible, you're probably a blitz player to have played that many games!

If all blunders were erased, all the games would end up drawn.

That's an incorrect statement!  A blunder is  a silly mistake, such as letting your queen be taken for free.  A mistake could be anywhere from a slight positional imperfection to a silly blunder.  Blunders can always be fixed, easily, and yet they still happen.  Computers never blunder, but they can have a less powerful strategy.  Computers can make positional mistakes, but they don't blunder.  Thanks for the comment though, and I highly enjoy unique opinions and comments.  (Tip:  Look up blunder on the chessopedia, chess-encyclopedia on chess.com, you may have to be a premium member to do this though.)

whats the point in coming into a thread and bashing someone's opinion?

In all seriousness, how is he arguing? I see it as more debating that arguing.

See it as you will, it is what it is, isn't it?

 

This entire thread is nothing but slight of the word. Let's see who can twist around sentences with unneeded adjectives, right?

APS, quit being a troll. You know damn well the difference between a blunder and a mistake or an inaccuracy. And if you don't, you have no business in this thread anyway.

It's debating, and please be nice, I'm trying to be nice to everybody, I even said thank you for your opinion and I really enjoy it, you didn't read the whole thing, and if you did, then please don't bash out FACTS!!!  Hello?  It wasn't bashing out opinions, it was kindly stating that a blunder is different, I was nice to him, and I'm thankful he commented, however, your statement is NOT appreciated

If you're not going to talk about chess, and only say random words, please refrain from commenting.  Not one thing you said had to do with chess, and it wasn't right anyways.  You only talked about arguing and grammar, is that chess?

 Maybe if you asked a better question, you would get better responses.

I do get good responses, (besides yours), because it is a great question.  You're just angry, AND, you're not even talking about chess for the third time!  I soon will start blocking your account.  Thank you for your attempt to politely comment, it is greatly appreciated.

 This is a too subtle a way of pointing out the problem with your question.

I'm sure everyone else can count the number of replies I made. In any event, good luck with your question.
