Curious, where's everyone playing from and what's their setup?

I'll start... I typically play from my desk for a few minutes at a time, I just open up Chess.com on one of the screens for a few quick games.

I play online on my phone, and I get notifications is why I move so fast.

I've been playing badly at my computer. I'm better laying in bed, half-asleep playing blitz on the iPad

I've never tried Chess.com on a tablet, are you saying you're better on a tablet than at the computer?

I do not play on chess.com at all except for 2 exhibitions [centaur chess] and 3 vote chess games.

I do not like their rating system, so play on another chess place.

I just watched the games on your profile, that win against the GM was impressive.

Yes, that's what I'm saying. No, it's not true. I'm much faster with a mouse. But, as I play 5 0 on the tablet and 3 0 on the desktop, I sometimes make fewer bad moves on the tablet.

Didn't think it would matter but it's actually caused me to fudge up not just in chess

Typos. Reading things wrong

Damn I wanna get it fixed

I mostly play on my phone, as I rarely get much time to sit at my computer without a child wanting to repeatedly press the Windows key. But I do prefer to play on a computer. Also, with the commute to and from work, the phone is the easiest option. And no, I don't play at work. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I don't think my boss is paying me to do anything other than my job.

My boss happens to be a gloriously handsome, intelligent, and savvy man who understands that every now and then he needs to decompress with a game of chess or two.

Either you're self-employed or I need to find a boss like that.
