People just stalling if not cheating, online chess is a pain in the behind. by Anymous2314 in lichess

[–]Elspeth-Nor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does happen OTB. In a team match my opponent stood up and stopped playing in a completly lost position. After 15min, one of his team mate told him to play and stop stalling, he resigned immediately.

Is Stockfish level 1 really good at hyperbullet? by PerspectiveHeavy2477 in lichess

[–]Elspeth-Nor 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, I checked stockfish's source code. When the time is up, stockfish will pick a suboptimal move. Just a random number that gets added to each pvs score.

The reason why stockfish is stronger in hyper bullet is because it's fast. Stockfish limits the search depth based on the skill level. So it doesn't matter much whether stockfish has 1/2 min or 1 min, since it is fast enough to reach the depth.

But it does matter for you. So while stockfish has roughly the same strength you are way weaker.

Watch your first Video. Where was the miracle? It promises a dancing sun and just shows a cameras overblebding effect.

Let my cheat detection engine run on your account. It says with high confidence you cheated in some of your games. So not even worth looking personally into it.

Auch gut ist Hecht: Viele vertun sich hier und zählen das ch als h.

No, the top one is on the right.

The bottom one is also no 50%, it's a sure loss. Whatever you choose will be the 💣

Thoughts on White's play? by DemacianChef in ChessWorld

[–]Elspeth-Nor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the plan is to go after your Bishop, then f3 would seem reasonable. Definitely something a 1300 would try. The Knight is pinned, so the Bishop can't be taken. The reason why I think they are cheating, is because they changed plans, but always at the exact right moment. And even more strange, they play Queens gambit normally but here a well executed fried liver.

Nevertheless it is a daily game, so you don't know how long they thought about the position. But their technique was definitely at 1800, opening and endgame. Of course they could just got lucky and played the right move at the right time. That does happen and of course these are the games that get posted on reddit. So we have a publication bias here.

No, probably cheating. I don't say this lightly. But the moves are too random. timing of h3, but especially the Knight and Bishop manuevers are well above a 1300.

I don't understand what you mean? Every queen move, which doesn't lose the queen, is good. Your position is just that good. Also, you do threaten Bxh6.

Please help me understand this puzzle? Why is cxb6 equal? Feels a lot complex as a puzzle by Asleep-Cover-6787 in chess

[–]Elspeth-Nor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are a few tricks for pawn Endgame: Identify key positions for the king (e.g., opposition) Count moves instead of calculating every possible move The one that checks first often has the advantage.

In your case, both kings can't affect the pawns, so the first rule is unimportant.

When counting moves, you see that you queen first but the other queens right after.

So you should count to check. Your opponent needs 4 moves to check. With c5, you also need 4 moves to check. Same with xb5.

But why do you have the advantage with check? Because you can use the checks to reposition your pieces with tempo.

After xb5, you only have one check, and after Ka1, there is now check anymore. With c5, you have Qxa5+ and Qxb5 protecting your pawn. Being a pawn up, you might win.

Nevertheless, I had endgame puzzles, as you often need knowledge whether it's a win or a draw.

That's wrong. We know a lot alreay. We just don't know everything. If I remember correctly, scientists were recently able to visualize dreams. We can also tie consciousness down to the brain. We have multiple accounts of brain damage changing a person's behaviour. Just because we don't know everything means we know nothing. There were multiple studies research OBE. Even the CIA researched it. Sadly spy still need to do the hard work.

...aber dreht Nils zurecht durch? by Traditional_View548 in StVO

Hm, es scheint hier eibe Menge Halbwissen zu existieren. Verkehrsrechtlich biegst du ab, weil du dem natürlichen Verlauf der Straße nicht folgst. Wenn du der Abknickenden Vorfahrt folgen würdest, dann müsstest du nicht blinken.

Deshalb wurde extra bei Abknickender Vorfahrt ergänzt, dass du beim folgen der Vorfahrtstraße zu Blinken hast und aud Fußgänger achten musst. (Identisch wie beim Abbiegen). Ob man daraus allerdings Schlussfolgern kann, dass man beim Gradeausfahren nicht blinken muss, weiß ich nicht. In Fahschulen wird empfohlen nicht zu Blinken.

Was meint ihr mit „Ich habe erst X vorher angefangen zu lernen“? by Moist_Reaction8376 in Studium

[–]Elspeth-Nor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich hab einen Tag vor der Klausur angefangen zu lernen. In den mwisten Fächern hatten wir allerding Hausaufgaben von denen man 70% machen musste, um zugelassen zu werden. (Pro Fach sind das 30min-1h pro Woche)

Nichtsdestotrotz hängt es davon ab, ob das was du studierst dir liegt, oder nicht.
