There goes my ratings again.


watch out for people who are agreesive you have to play smart when they try to go for the kill play defensively and wait for them to make a mistake.

Nintendo I think you should take chess lessons or play with me. If you play with me I will find out your mistakes!! Also, ratings don’t matter Nintendo. An unrated player can beat the world 🌎 champion Nintendo. Also in a chess tournament I had the lowest rating (by the way the tournament was the nationals) and got 6th place!! This shows ratings don’t matter. Also Nintendo use the thinking process and think before you move. Also think ahead(like after your move figure out what your opponent will do, so you see if it’s a good move or not.
Thanks Nicholas, this will also help for sure.
Anytime

Hi Jay (Will), you've got some good advice there, yes play slower games, bullet &
fast blitz is fun but you don't get time to deep think your moves, so it's difficult to learn anything especially bullet, fast blitz now & again is fine.

I've just checked & you've got 102 Daily Games going, try & get this down to a more manageable 25 before accepting any more, use vacation time on your turn on your when your time gets low (time management) then don't let it get above 50.
Take your time on these daily moves, try out your ideas & variation lines using the self analysis mode before making your actual move (you can use this feature whilst in vacation mode
).
With your membership you can save this analysis.
Do all your Tactics, don't worry about time, just concentrate on getting it right.
Learn your Lessons
Practice anything & everything (moves, tactics, lessons) you get wrong, then come back to it a few days later just to make sure

But an NM tells me NOT to play slow games!

IK I'm trying to knock them down to the floor.
I suggest you get a book and study. Also try playing one 15 minute game at a time. Focus on one game.
Quality over quantity.

NO! A real chess National Master! NOT a Nintendo Master!

Not sure if you had clicked on the link in #33: https://www.chess.com/article/view/longer-time-controls-are-more-instructive
IM@Silman (Jeremy Silman) "Playing 3-0 games isn’t very instructive. Bullet and three-minute, though they are really fun, lead to endless blunders and very little time to think about what’s going on. Thus, since you want to improve, I recommend you play longer games (30 minutes for a game or even one move every three days), then study each one".
Most chess players agree on this advice, here's another: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/how-blitz-and-bullet-rotted-my-brain-don-t-let-it-rot-yours
As already said by others definitely go for Quality over Quantity

I looked at your profile and saw how to play many daily games. I want to recommend you play more fast and blitz games because in this way you suck your brain to think more quickly. Tell me what are you doing on your chess mastering?

It just goes to show, you can get any answer you want on the internutz...

Everything you need to improve is in your games. Forget blitz, bullet and this kind of stuff, and play Daily Chess, investing a lot of time to find the best moves.
But before this you really should go through three or four of your games! Go first through one of your Daily Chess games you lost, comment every single move, post it here and a lot of people will help you.

Thanks, nice idea.
Okay, I'll try to follow that advice. I shall remember that.
