Overly generous evaluation?

I am at best an average player but the chess.com computer analysis gave me 10/10 excellent moves for my most recent game. Granted it was a 10 move checkmate and my opponent's moves helped but I didn't think any of my moves were anything above standard.

Does it award excellent for any opening move that isn't known to be bad?

P.s. I would post the game but I can't work out how on my mobile. I have used the insert game icon but can't see where my archived games can be selected on it.

I don't know how the chesss.com analysis decides a move is excellent but it may just be that the moves you made either maintained or increased the advantage/score that was evaluated after your opponent's move.

 

As to inserting a game, the insert dialog doesn't pull from your archive and games have to be entered manually or inserted by pasting the moves/PGN text. Last I knew, that didn't work for mobile correctly (at least not for smaller screens).

 

Though a feature to pull from the archive would probably be useful.

I am sure your opponent made it very easy to make the winning moves. Facing an opponent who lets you win in less than 15 moves is always nice and makes you feel good about yourself but really it was not you who made it great, it was the opponent. Also I seldom get good moves. The computer gives excellence unduly.
