I meant the time you spent thinking about all your moves prior to the slip move, because in your words "it sucks wasting so much time on a game only to let it go by a misclick".
Obvious Slip-ups....
Sort:
oh yeah,
you got a point...
but some people are just lazy.. :P
Just say 'damned iPhone!' a few times and move on. Any more talk of takebacks and chess.com will have to create an Avon Barksdale .gif.

Sorry for your mistake. You might be better off not expecting any take-backs and be glad when it does happen.

Well i was on my IPHONE and since i didnt have submit move on i accidently clicked my king and i wanted to click a pawn instead so i clicked somewhe randomley so it cancels my king but me being stupid clicked on the square beside the king and the king moved..
well it was so obvious it was a slip-up cause i wanted to take the dudes bishop.. im not a ****** idiot i know when theres a bishop diagnol from the pawn.
Well the guy didnt want to do takebacks.. what a sore winner, if hes only here to win he should quit chess or something, he wasted 1 hr of his life playing this game against me only to let a misclick end this whole game.. think about it... in real life you dont slip-up and let his bishop roam.
The guy ruined the game for me, i hate ****** like this, only looking to win, they have no sportmanship, this is the reason online chess suck cause these ******* idiots care about winning and dont care for the game at all.
Just venting... feel free to agree or to flame.
A similar thing happened to me.
Three or four moves into the game, my opponent makes a routine move and I spot that if he had made a different move, I would have a forced mate-in-nineteen. So I say to him: "Hey, Patzer, do you want to be immortal? If you change your move to this one, this game will go down in history and it will have your name on it".
It was an unrated game and the punk was losing the majority of his games anyway, so it was no big deal to him.
And do you know the jerk says to me?
no?

You made a blunder on move 13 and should have lost the game at that point.
aah i see, i only calculated Bxh2+ and then white gets his pawn back, but i never looked at Bxe5.

Haha,
well ill try to be more careful,
but it sucks wasting so much time on a game only to let it go by a misclick, thats why i was pissed off.
Yes, it was my fault but ill be more careful next time.
Let this be a learning experience...
Hey, what a great attitude about the whole thing.
I'm also lazy\impatient like you...I tried to use the Submit Move button for awhile but...nahhhh, I'd just rather misclick and be irritated once in awhile than click Submit Move for every single move.

or there must be one or two who would pay me to go away.
Oh,this reminds me of a few months ago when i did touch move and left the computer on the screen and went to school.My 4 year old brother made a couple of random moves on different games and i lost like 12 games cos of taking a protected pawn with my Q,giving away random pieces and stuff like that.Lol
I didnt think about it at all actually, i was pissed for like 5 minutes then thats about it, i actually felt sorry for the guy for wasting his time.
For me on an iphone it would take me 4 seconds to make my move and drag my screen to the submit button and then click it, its not worth it :D
