Sometimes it's illogical. When my opponent has 1 minute left, i have 20 seconds and he tries to win on time. I can manage a draw by shuffling pieces 50-70 moves but it's not the best exercise for my nerves to do it on last second.

It maybe "cheap" but it's the only way I can win. Until I can consintently win with using tactical skill, I'm mostly going to be playing bullet.

Then you will probably never learn to win consistently with tactical skills.

If your opponent blunders away his time, then it is normal that you take advantage of it

The way I see it, if your opponent has a total winning position, but doesn't have the time left to see that win out, that is their mistake.  They have a winning position because they took a long time to think things out and get them set up to win, but the timer is a part of the game and it is their responsibility to factor that in as well.  I don't begrudge my opponents winning on time, because I accept it as my own fault.

Sweetest win in the world is to win on time when you have only King and  Pawn and your  opponent has like a Queen and both Rooks and your pawn is blocked by three of his pawns and a Knight and Bishop and you get the win because your stupid little pawn could theoretically be promoted .

Even better is when his flag falls under that scenario and you only have like 1/10 of a second left on your clock. 

It's like having an orgasm.

nice job

I think you must be doing one or both of those activities wrong for that to be true...

Only a chess player would confuse a board game with an orgasm.

Winning on time can be intense:

Actually you do not have a good percentage wins on time.

Here is your rating of LOSING on time.:

YOU  should improve your TO losses and raise your ratings.

I always get annoyed when I lose on time in slow games, which happens very often. It's just because I am a slow player though.

I have never completed a 30 minute game with less than 20 minutes on my opponent's clock, and about half of my losses are losses on time in the end game.
