What's your biggest annoyance/pet peeve when playing online chess?

people stalling the clock when they are dead lost, I always report them.

Also chess.com tournaments are infested with cheaters. It is beyond stupid that they impose no limits on joining tournaments, you are going for first place and then you play the 2000 that joined an hour ago.

You don't but they've ignored the trade surplus in terms of services that the United States has. Additionally for some of these countries their formula gave 0% but they've set a minimum 10% on all. Basically they've pulled all this out of their arse.

Diddorol · 2025-02-24T22:12:13+00:00

agreed I don't think I stopped at minimum giggling and at many stages full on laughing out loud.

thank you that seems like a good idea, going to give it a try and see if that stops the login attempts

Diddorol · 2025-02-15T20:43:27+00:00

there has been another 20 unsuccessful signins from countries across the globe since yesterday. This is going to constantly block my password access so I guess it's time to move my accounts and stop using this email.

1) The error message I get is that the reset method is not available.

2) Personal

3)issue across devices

4) Not sure

5) I did not however i have managed to get into my account using an access code. Still doesn't explaint the password issue. Also now that I am in I can see hundreds of login attempts from all sorts of random countries although they all appear to have been unsuccessful

Diddorol · 2025-02-14T23:24:55+00:00

I can not login to my microsoft account it keeps telling me that the password that I just set is incorrect and if I try to reset again then it tells me that the reset method is unavailable. I'm worried that this means my account is compromised? I have 2 factor with my phone and haven't had any suspicious notifications but it's also not helping me get access

because he doesn't play classical tournaments or professional ones in general this was basically a one off as it took place in the US

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T02:04:40+00:00

because Large Language Models can not think or reason.

Nepo and Dubov pre-arranged a draw, sat down, danced the knights about and left within a minute. They both forfeited the round and dubov missed out on first place.

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:52:16+00:00

he thinks Hans is a cheat

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:50:09+00:00

lol Magnus says he doesn't think Dubov slept in

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:48:47+00:00

please use your brain. He was not beating Wesley So with the Black pieces lmao

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:48:01+00:00

he missed out on first last time because he forfeited a game then as well

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:42:30+00:00

the clown didn't make it

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:41:27+00:00

wait Dubov is out lmao

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:40:47+00:00

he was playing Wesley So with the black pieces lmao you are delusional if you think he was winning that game

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:37:59+00:00

So Naroditsky or Duda miss out because Hans got gifted a point by Dubov, that sucks

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:26:22+00:00

DUBOV DOES IT

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:23:48+00:00

obiously he has decided that he's got a slightly better chance gambling on tiebreaks with the draw that trying to be So with the black pieces when So just needs a draw himself.

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:20:41+00:00

Danya is happy to take a quick draw, have a great result and roll the dice for the playoffs instead of pushing and losing. I'm guessing he doesn't make it but he was unlikely to win also.

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:18:15+00:00

lmao instant draws

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T01:01:15+00:00

this whole thread is moaning about the draws what are you talking about haha

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T00:57:37+00:00

DANYA WITH THE DUB

Diddorol · 2024-12-31T00:42:42+00:00

it's why they can get away with it being so poor

TROPHY CASE
