When my opponent doesn't place their pieces in the center of the square! They got all their pieces sloppy as can be, hanging over the edge of the squares... this drives me nuts Lol

 

Me too. I wonder if people do it on purpose to be annoying or if they just don't care.

It's because they don't care. It's really annoying though...

hey guys so do any of u guys have any tips for going to a tournamnet for the first time cuz i might get to go after corona.

Do you have a clock?? I would try playing a few games with a clock and writing down all the moves as ya play. This will get you used to the OTB process. My first ever tournament, I forgot to hit my clock after many moves Lol

8h of sleep.

at least 8 hours of sleep, i would recommend more. If they're long games and you finish with an hour or two to spare, a nap wouldn't hurt happy.png

Oh man such an underrated advice. A good night sleep and a good meal/breakfast. Everything else comes second.

The only thing I'm distracted by is my sweaty hands that always make some stupid touch move violation.

Also me every game. It doesn’t even bother me now that. I just accept that I will get zero break before the next game

Yeah, there was a huge controversy over that. Also, I kind of have social anxiety out there cause if u mess up or break the rules everyone kinda goes a little crazy. I didn't really like it because all the kids told me to play my twin because I had one, I don't know why they didn't want to play with me, but later they assigned us to specific people...but i mean this was at elementary school, i hated chess that time, but i find online more fun just last month.
