What you are doing now (intentionally losing in order to decrease your rating) is considered cheating.

things where going better yesterday -- but back at 100 again 6 losses in row-- 2  games below 10 moves-- the rest above 25 moves - playing alot of 200-250 players - some 100 players but mostly a lot better than me --  going down that rabbit hole again i think --only its darker than before

that rabbit hole is getting deeper and darker now need to stop completely this game - at least a time away --

This is something you need to share. Keep me updated.

that niche i found was all for nothing --- as soon as i thought i was doing well up to 139 and even higher i crashed back to 100 just as fast -- seems my moves o was thinking about didn't work on most people just complete idiots which i can beat - idiots just like my self 

so back to 5 minutes games and maybe there is something i can salvage before just give the !@#$% up

i have decided  to now just play to get 25 moves in on  a game  and forget about winning or timing someone out to win -- just get 25 /30 moves in before i am defeated and lose -- even when i lose my queen i will still play to see if i can stall the opponent from crushing me. think this is the best course of action so i don't just give up on this game as it is sooooooooooooo depressing to lose every single game  except when someone  throws a game -- thats even worse and it  happens plenty of times here . so 25 moves  is the goal for tonight games  each time i play

today three  lost games so far over 25 moves and one win  morning going far to luck warm so far

Just keep playing!

Avatar of dokerbohm

this afternoon played four games all where over 40 moves so that was a slight improvement  with fifth game a draw so i wait till tonight to see if i can  continue getting between 25 moves and 40 moves for maybe 3/4 games we will see
