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.

Thanks happy.png

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 tongue.png

Avatar of stiggling

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

At least he got a break!

Avatar of stiggling

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

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.

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

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

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.

You got basically a 250 point lead ahead of second place with an hour and a half left, that’s just crazy..

Props to you for hanging in there for 22 straight hours of chess

Ended up winning 200 games exactly. My win percentage was 82.7% which was basically the same as others who have won.

Highest rated player I beat and lowest rated player I lost against.
