A game with many errors and missed opportunites, by both sides.
I think he was just trying to get under your skin. Forget all about it, but never play him again.
Do you think I cheated?
Sort:
Your moves, especially at the end, are not computer moves. At an hour per person, if you used an engine, they would definitely have played differently. I haven't run this game through Fritz 13 to see how many moves match, but your moves are very human-looking. As far as I can tell, you definitely did not use an engine for the second half, and most likely not for the first half. You did play above your rating, but that is not a sign of cheating, but rather of improvement. Good job!
Thanks you for the encouragement and my peace of mind. I would never have thought that people could stoop so low.
Hmm....I think you could be right. I definitely remember thinking at some point in the endgame that it was slipping away from me. I suddenly seemed to be playing like an idiot, while my opponent was making all the right moves.
StampNut,
If your opponent accuses you of cheating then you can just disable chat and continue your game with a clear conscience (assuming you are not cheating!). Don't worry about accusations, just play your game. If you want you can add them to your blocked player list so they cannot contact you again :)

Discussions about cheating aren't allowed there's a forum for that if you have a complaint about an opponent cheating talk to the staff.

Nonsense.
And not once did I complain about my opponent.

This is a recent live game of mine. My opponent accused me of cheating several times during the game and threatened to report me. Although I played well, I know I can play better than my rating would suggest as I am still quite new to chess.com and haven't played many games yet.
I even missed a knight fork on move 27 which would probably have won me the game, but I messed up the endgame and eventually lost.
But. do you think I cheated? I wouldn't like to think that I may get banned for doing nothing wrong. Sorry about the link to the game. I can't for the life of me figure out how to post the game properly.
