Man, this is deep.
Why I actually don't want chess in correspondence chess
Sort:
These are good points. I also find that there are a lot of discussion points related to chess, and these can get in the way of threadjacking attempts. I think chess.com should cease focusing on chess altogether.
Yeah, all this focus on chess is really ruining it for me. Resigning in correspondence chess is also not cool I've heard.
When I am the one who is losing:
- I don't want my opponent to beat me.
- I can still win/draw on time
When I am the winner:
- Winning a won game is not fun.
- Without chess, there's no conditional moves to avoid chess.
