How are y'all doin? I have an inquiry  for you lot, mostly for all y'all OTB players. . .

Do you try harder on OTB compared with online chess? Do you resign games prematurely on online chess since you don't feel like defending? Do you not think many moves deep on online chess since you are just bored by the position? 

 

. . .

I, for one, am a lazy online chess player. I do all of the formerly mentioned. It's pathetic, I know.

. . .

I've found a solution which is the "Lazy Chess Players United" team group. Here we can try to boost our competitive spirit by playing tournaments among our underrated peers and help improve our OTB. I don't have a membership, so I can't really do much about it though.

I try much harder in OTB, yes.
But I may not play much better.
