Playing for 24 Hours

I plan to play all day Saturday in the chess.com 3|0 blitz tournament.

Goal is 10 games per hour average for 240 games total.

I thought it would be fun to track my progress to 240, so I'll reserve the post below for doing that on Saturday.

I will be watching

Thanks

I was planning on updating the image as I went, so before Saturday I hope chess.com fixes the site so we can edit our comments again.

Thanks, 2 hours into it.

Ok, time for a break, don't know if I can get 10 next hour, but I have some extra saved up

Another break, but on pace with average of 10 per hour.

saw the game against the 2082 where you pinned his queen. he stalled. poor sport

At least he got a break!

Yeah, at first people like that were annoying, but now it's kind of nice

Eh, so this user is playing, hmm

That one won't get tired.

I played him/her/it twice. Unfortunately it seemed human. 2nd game I played it, it stopped playing and I won on time (its first loss)... I'm sort of confused.

he lost on time because it’s hard to cheat in 3 min. this is him too: @STOCKFISH_CPU_AUTO. that is how you detect cheaters. their only losses are on time

I guess I'm awful at telling what's engine vs what's human

Starting to feel tired, it's the half way mark...

lol

Ok, I quit with 1 and a half hours left to go. First place and 700 points, and I'm tired, so there's no need to punish myself any more.

Interesting hallucination type of mistakes... for example I'd premove, but then I'd think that the move was actually made and it was my turn again, so I'd try to move twice only to have the pieces jump back.

Nice i wouldnt of been able to play that long!
