Ziggy Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I’m currently playing 2 games for Scotland against Germany in some league. I’m absolutely skelping some guy who has obviously decided that his best tactic is to try and bore me into just giving up. The time control is 3 days per move and even when he only has one legal move to play, he is taking 2 days, 23 hours and 30 minutes to make his move. Absolute shithousery. I miss OTB play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe ahead in material but I managed to put on some pressure by getting an advanced pawn to force the king about the board. Almost missed the mate though and was hovering over making a different move completely. That format of chess takes a level of skill I simply don't have; I was ahead on points almost by accident, and had no idea where the attack was coming from next until the surprise checkmate put me out of my misery (literally about 30 seconds before my flight took off, the timing was unbelievably perfect). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
