Fake points

Here's a solution: play with longer time intervals.  I guarantee that if I play a 30 minute game, I make better moves than you do in a 1 minute game.

I do not take online ratings/points seriously. Yes, they do indicate skill level to a degree, but they are not completely accurate.

In my opinion, blitz/bullet chess is bad practice for your game. I would rather take my time and think. Bullet/blitz invites too many blunders. And if you get used to playing that way, your chess may not improve. And that is why I do not play bullet/blitz chess.

So, I dont think you should take online bullet/blitz points too seriously. Save the hair-splitting time controls for OTB.

Just the opinion of my unrated self.

You are precisely correct.

I saw a little humour in it, as well. :)

You are right! I play alot of short games for fun but to really get better in the game the longer games are much better. Games when you really think about the position, not just premove some shit untill you win on time when your opponent is going to checkmate you in the next move!

I played two bullet games this morning after several months away from the demon. The first was on my iPad. I lost on time when up a knight. The second was on my laptop with a rodent in my palm. I had 2.3 seconds left when my opponent (two rooks and a knight ahead) could not find the mate in two in his last five seconds and ran out of time.

Moral of this story: the better player always loses.
