You should play the Greco Attack. 99+ against greedy rook grabbers every time.

I consider over 90% a good game even though I'm not so good, however, I once played a 99% accuracy game before

It’s harder in timed chess

Obviously it's a good game when you win, no matter the accuracy percentage.

95% accuracy is still 5% INACCURACY.

... 98% isn't all that hot, either, come to think of it.

98 is good, really anything above 90 should be considered good

Notice in that print-out - a 31-move insanely complex tactical melee, with pieces literally being sacriced back and forth by both players, and I played ONE move that wasn't either Book, Best, Great or Brilliant.

I like to aim for 100.0% accuracy, and 100.0% at the most.

I regularly play moves that preserve the win when they're given as an inaccuracy but all the moves preferred by the engine drop the win. Or i used to when I took Daily seriously.

Correct.

One of the main reasons that the computer's "accuracy" stat is almost meaningless is that Humans and Engines have very different priorities.

Once a Human player gains a winning advantage, his number one priority will be to suppress the opponent's counter-play (eg: by trading down into a clearly won endgame) and to prevent the opponent from "muddying the waters" with complications and perhaps escaping with a draw.

Humans go for the CLEAREST win.

Engines have other priorities. Engines go for the SHORTEST win.

This necessarily means that a move that is (not just "seems", but "is") accurate from a Human perspective is considered inaccurate from an Engine perspective.

As a 700 ish rated player anything above an 80/85 is good.

No. I don't even OWN an engine. I've never used them for prep.

I think anything above 80% is good

92.5% for daily. And the other time controls? whatever, just the win.
