I won a extra knight, bishop, then the game after losing my queen.

I mean, you were still completely losing until your opponent played the utterly braindead 19. Re1. Low Elo is fun.

Yeah. But I think I could still countinue the attack

You're pasting this everywhere the last two days, on topic or not. The word for this is 'spamming' and it violates the TOS you agreed to respect. Knock it off.

In a lost position I resigned the other day ….I often fight on to the bitter end ..not out of disrespect…but a tiny hope that my opponent may possibly blunder 😏

nah dude i would resign respectfully if i just blundered my queen i would just resign. if i did it on purpose i wouldnt but other way around it will just ruin the whole match i would blunder more pieces

#12 no never resign. Once i checkmated my opponent while being 17 points down - that's almost 2 queens.

I can't remember the last time I blundered my Queen, but when I feel I've been beaten, it's, "Congratulations, well done, good game... next!". Losing doesn't much bother me but I don't to stick around thinking about it for another 20 minutes or whatever.

Come from behind wins are the best but with chess, when you're losing more than a little, it can be a snowball effect. The equivalent in, say, baseball, would be like: it's the 7th inning, you're not only down seven to zero, you also no longer have a first baseman, a short stop or a left fielder. Or football, new rule: every time the other team scores, you lose the ability to field a player... it's the third quarter, you're down 27-0... worse, they have 11 men on the field to your 6.

I never resign because losing is good for me.
