the nerve..

Just played a 15 minute game with a player rated higher than Me. I played well and would have won with more time. That said, how do You play a quick game as far as the fastest and most time saving? I kept having to click from my games and back, it was very frustrating.

This site is not really made for games that fast. Most people I play here seem to do about 2 to 6 moves a day per game. One to two moves are more common.

You might try adding 1 min per move to account for the time involved in just realizing it's your move. There's really no descent way to plan fast games on the web, because the only way the server can tell you it's your move is for you to constanly press the re-fresh button.

I take full blame. I knew the terms. I feel like the faster pc won and that got Me aggrivated. I offered to pocket a knight and play Him again in a 'longer' game. (ignorance just made it better for Me) :?
