Here's a Vote Chess game we just lost in our group. I recommended what seemed like a harmless move at the time as I didn't analyze, but it proved fatal in just three moves. I tend to think I can play out of any bad situation because when I was young I could, but against better competition you have to play EVERY move well.
Another problem with Online Chess versus OTB is the distraction factor. I listen to music, switch over to Youtube, play with my dogs, eat, check on the news and so forth.
When I used to play OTB my concentration and focus were so different, it was like I was a completely different person.
