He’s comparing blitz to bullet, not to normal chess. Bullet is even faster. ---

Bullet has helped my blitz. I almost never lose on time in blitz. I can’t say blitz has helped my bullet. ---

Rather than moving the rook. I think we both figured he would lose his rook at that point, but he would run his pawn. ---

I think Dan has you on ignore. I don’t know, though. ---

I know he has me on ignore. So it looks like I’m going to have to depend on you or someone else to convey the message. ---

Perhaps someone else. I am assuming that since he has you on ignore, he doesn’t want to talk to you. He’s free to take you off ignore any time he pleases but I won’t be conveying messages. ---

a win is a win… so nice job but please dont brag about that end game lol: giving away those pawns: urgh giving away your bishop pair: inexcusable lol they are gods in an open endgame strange that your opponent decided to give away that game without being in time trouble but you did very well to give yourself that chance to steal it back ---

You are unusually insufferable today, Nico. I wonder if you realize what a total tit you come across as. Actually, that would require a higher IQ than you have so obviously not. ---

i take it that was directed at me lol interesting, why do you think that? does your extremely high iq (lol) disagree with my analysis or do you sense that nickscafe wont appreciate my honest free chess analysis and congratulations? ---
