That's now how you pronounce compulsory.

Im still trying to figure out what complusory means

All the clouds turn to words
All the words float in sequence
No one knows what they mean
Everyone just ignores them

When you claim your opponent cheated with a engine,  you have a case of losing to a computer, or in concise terminology, complusory.

wow!  never say never good luck to you

 

There is no luck in chess, so you are supposed to tell your opponent, "good luck". But, don't say "good game," if you beat me, because it was obviously garbage on my part. I always say good game after my opponent drops a queen.


In other words, don't take yourself so seriously. This request for rematches is an example of taking yourself too seriously. Just play chess. If you play enough, you will play the same opponents multiple games over time. There's one player here I've played over 400 games. I do know him IRL.

I've played the good old @MSC157 exactly 400 games. scoring an amazing 29%.

 

I played a match against @MSC157--two correspondence games. Neither of us could find a win.

I neither give nor ask for rematches. I don't chat.  I just play chess... lousy blitz chess, but chess nonetheless.

rematch should be obligatory - hand people a game and then they disappear; cowards; too many [censored] around here

Rematches should be banned — hand people a loss and then they feel entitled to try again. Egomaniacs; too many [censored] around here.

When doing a mockery, I prefer to copy their poor grammar as well. tongue.png

"Whenever I lose I must have rematches!",

The Patzer repeatedly, heatedly cried.

He continued to lose still more games in batches,

And rematched and rematched until he died.

The kid is good.

I've played close to 600 games with @imronilm1204

Pulpofeira

How it was?

llamonade

Oh, well, not all at once happy.png

Maybe at most we played 100 in a single day, but we did this for a few weekends.

Pulpofeira

Ah, long time controls, I see. If I'd play those vs the kid my score would be maybe 1 per cent.

llamonade

I guess that's sarcastic. Yeah, they were 3 minute games or faster. I've lost about 30 against him, but often one or both of us were screwing around in various ways, so it's not a totally serious result.

Pulpofeira

I see he's not very fond of the queen's pawn. Well, I don't go around saying 1. e4??, I prefer 1. d4!! instead, less offensive. grin.png
