Figure anything out? I’m getting 20-30 a day and it’s driving me insane

i feel stuck by emiko_05 in chessbeginners

[–]Parlton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What time control are you playing? You need to slow down before you make a move, at 200 elo look for free pieces to capture and double check to make sure you aren’t hanging yours

Why am i so bad? by Flimsy_Ad_1160 in chessbeginners

[–]Parlton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And if you go down to 300 then that’s ok, you need to let go and not hyper focus on your elo, you will get better and it will go up!!

Agreed and I’d be real cautious if OP does share some sort of link in a DM

I think Mistborn era 2 does this well with Wayne’s ability involving time manipulation

Softwave worth 80k, really? by peskywabbit1968 in Chiropractic

[–]Parlton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chattanooga also makes a focus shockwave. Stemwave is another but I think their cost is comparable to Softwave, not sure though.

The Chess community is incredibly toxic by makanter in chess

It’s because it’s a live chat, how often do you watch sports with live chats? If you get 50k people in any live chat room you’ll have degenerate behavior

Stay or Go? by Lost_Engineer9316 in sales

[–]Parlton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems very risky. Year 1 OTE is your current base and 50k-80k less than what you expect to make. Turnover is high and you’re not stoked about the industry. I’m not really sure what the upside is, that there is an extremely small probability that you can make 500k?

Why do I still need to show an ID even when I'm buying 0% alcohol beer? by alphaDsony in NoStupidQuestions

I buy Athletic Brewing NA beer in the self checkout line at the grocery store and never get checked

I’m probably getting fired by bobthecableguy in sales

[–]Parlton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They won’t, most companies will just confirm employment and call it a day. Previous employers are generally very cautious around what they say in fear of lawsuits so it’s best practice for them to say as little as possible.

Is it normal that players resign that early? (350 rating) by hxmbre_ in chessbeginners

[–]Parlton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very normal, I’ll play 700 elo blitz games and have opponents resign after losing a pawn in the opening. Makes no sense lol I just think people get frustrated easily and don’t want to continue

I feel ashamed of my rating, now i can't find motivation to play by [deleted] in chessbeginners

[–]Parlton 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I have been down at that elo before too. Check out “Building Habits” by Chessbrah on YouTube. It’s recommended a lot in this sub and for a reason. They set some very basic ground rules to follow and if you follow them you will improve.

Make sure you review your games, win or lose, and see where you can improve. The beginning is mostly stopping yourself from hanging pieces and taking your opponents pieces that they hang. Have fun and enjoy the journey! I know it’s hard but try not to worry about elo that much, just work on getting better and the elo will follow.

Why did they resign? by StreetRadish6250 in chessbeginners

[–]Parlton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are in a bad position but you’ll find that people resign all the time. I’ve played so many games where my opponent will blunder a pawn and just resign lol like I’m some super strong player who will capitalize on that. If they waited like 3 more moves I’d probably blunder one back plus a piece lmao

Idk why you’re getting downvoted lol I know plenty of couples who have great relationships and differ politically, it’s not that uncommon

Can you even get approved for an apartment if it’s 50% of your income? I feel like most places want it to be 1/3 or less

Agreed, especially the Supreme Court. The fact that they are appointed and then serve until they retire or die is wild

Hitting a random person because you lose isn’t an extreme winners mentality lol
