Bullet

Hello. Explain me please, how do you play it? I've lost many games because of clumsiness. Sometimes I literally can't move a pieces especially if it has a long route or i slip very badly. Sure point and click is safe but time is the essence. Looks like i had wininng positions in most of my games but I've lost most of them. People are you cyborgs?

Some people are very accurate with a mouse. A decent and clean mouse with a mousepad helps.

Remember pre-move. And remember some people play bullet a few hours every day... for years!

Accurate mouse? What is it? Sometimes i just can move because I'm clumsy. Bullet is not the chess but skill who is better with mouse.

It is not who is better with the mouse. I sometimes play bullet with my laptop pad and do fine. It is a matter of the moves you make. Play moves that are accurate and pay attention the the squares you control and don't control.

I respect the people who is succesful at this, but it is definitely not for me and I don't give a damn about this fact.

Hey now, it just takes practice and getting used to you know. Keep practicing and you will get the hang of bullet, seeing more oppurtunities, and winning.

There was a time when I played bullet with a mouse that had a roller ball. Dust caused me to lose games. Optical mice are more accurate.

It's not only matter of mouse precision or quality of games for me. It requires good reflexes. Under them i mean how you move pieces. For intance it's difficult for me to make a long move because I need to drag mouse very long distance which is difficult and there is a chance I drop it prematurely. Or sometimes piece doesn't want to move but jumps back to the original square which makes me mad especially if it was long move. I have plenty games where i played well and fast but coudn't do anything because many such events. I've seen videos how people play bullet and I'm impressed how easy and precise they handle their mouses but it's a torture for me.

I always set my mouse speed so that very little movement is required to get a bishop from corner to corner.
