I've lost plenty of puzzles due to a misclick sad

I had a special problem for several times: When I play with my tablet and use the analysis tool for daily games it can happen that I touch the "resign" button instead of the "back" button. And then (and I have the function of chack back on) it can happen that I resign a game totally unwillingly. That is because chess.com has these totaly unnecessary button in the analysis tool. Very annoying.

For some reason i usually missclick castle the wrong side which causes a lot of lost games ofc.

Sometimes I misclick in analysis and have to start over.

Example with a draw

I've lost count of how many games I've lost due to misclicks and mouse slips. I want to let go, and let the force move the pieces for me, both in online chess and in OTB psychokinesis.

I'm making sure I've truly decided where I am going before beginning to move my piece.  Sometimes it still happens but for a while it was 1-2 times a game.

Yes, I do those kind of misclicks often.

I’ve misclicked for the loss a few times. Always swear, say I’ll never do that again. And then do it again

I just played a game on lichess in which I misclicked on my first move (1. e3). My opponent immediately offered a draw. Classy guy. We started another game and he beat me fair and square.

Is a (very) very funny endgame, no?

And all this is the fault of who? Of my  mouse!

Yes and it’s so frustrating because you know the phenomenon doesn’t occur in real life. I’m also playing on a phone so it does happen quite often lol 😎
