I'm a newer player and need some advice. Here's a game in which I completely blew. I started very very strong and then it just went down hill and I resigned... [Site "Chess.com iPhone"] [Date "09/13/2015 11:08AM"] [White "Seekford (1161)"] [Black "Legnoso14 (1241)"] 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 f6 3.Bc4 d6 4.h3 f5 5.Nc3 c6 6.O-O Nf6 7.Ng5 Rg8 8.Bxg8 Nxg8 9.Qh5 Kd7 10.Qf7 Ne7 11.Ne6 Qe8 12.Qxf8 Ng6 13.Qxe8 Kxe8 14.Nxg7 Kf7 15.Nxf5 Bxf5 16.exf5 Nf4 17.d3 Na6 18.Bxf4 exf4 19.Ne4 Nc5 20.Ng5 Kf6 21.Nxh7 Kxf5 22.g4 Ke5 23.Rae1 Kd4 24.c3 Kxd3 25.Rd1 Kc2 26.b4 Nd3 27.Ng5 Kxc3 28.Rb1 b5 29.Rb3 Kc2 30.h4 a5 31.h5 Rg8 32.Ne4 Rxg4 33.Kh2 f3 34.Rg1 Rxe4 35.h6 Rh4 36.Kg3 Rxh6 37.Kxf3 a4 38.Rbb1 Rf6 39.Ke4 d5 40.Kd4 Rf4 41.Ke3 d4+ {Legnoso14 won by resignation}

How do I share a game like I see it?

Click on the chessboard icon near the Bold icon.

It's right above the space given to type

There is a "get pgn" selection beside the game, click it and it will make it so you can post it here and we can see it.

 

Don't feel too bad though. I was way ahead in one game, opponent had 1 rook, a king, and a couple pawns. I had a queen, bishop, knight, and lots of pawns.

I was actually about 2 moves away from mate but I made a move at home on my computer, and the theme was set up differently. When the pieces have outlines the black and white ones all look black to me. Anyway, I made a hasty move and was going to lose my queen with their pawn.

I just resigned in shame. I hate the ones where I start out losing pieces from the beginning. I try to follow a tactic like developing my pieces towards the center and castling quickly, but I don't do it right and my pieces get taken. It also doesn't help to have too many games going at once and making moves at work or other distractions.

But I'm hanging in there. I don't feel as bad about the ones were I blunder into a loss as I do about the ones where I meander about the board constantly on the defense.

I don't think you can post games from mobile, the menus are different. I'm on Android and can not do it.
