You are playing better do you know how to castle though? a lot of the games where you move both rooks to the middle {still way better than lifting them move 3) you could have castlesd instead. drag the king two spaces over to castle.

tried the 5 min games played 6 lost all - guess i need to goback 10 min games -- its just they are so so slow  the players take a long time just to move one piece -- as in the 5 minutes it clips at a good speed -- but its much harder i guess 6/6 loss's as yesterday  i did 6 -10 minutes games and won 2 

oh well of to some puzzles for a while

this evening 6 games played one win 5 losses made 25 moves in 4 of them one i went to 43  i guess improvement  is a little streaky to say---- but any thing going up is better than nothing cause being at 100 all the time  does get boring ---- i really can see why now-- so many people quit this game  the turn over must be massive - at the beginner level- thank god the puzzles keep me going -- ok off to try one more idea then thats it for the night

last two days have been a downward trend even for me lower than low i guess - seem to be not lasting more than 7/8 moves lost yesterday 6 games won one - today 4 games lost one won will try a couple of more games  today will try different tactic than before  

Avatar of cokezerochess22

Well the games you lost in 7-8 moves you moved instantly on each move stop doing that and think about why you make each move before you move.  You hung a bishop to a pawn that just captured in 1 second slow down.

upward trend tonight 7 games played 2 wins all games where above 25 moves some close to 35moves much better result maybe there is light at end of the tunnel after all -------maybe  

Avatar of dokerbohm

saturday morning 6 games  6 losses only two games over 20 moves -- still 100 score -- going to give it one or two more days then on to another game -- this one has  beaten me down - wish lessons where more helpful they don't seem to teach how to play the game only moves are taught but that only works when the other guy playes the way you want not the way he/she wants
