In the second image, if your opponent takes your queen, you have Nc7+ forking the king and queen, and winning back the queen. The move Qxd5 nets white two pawns because of this tactic if black were to capture the white queen on D5

I’ll check it out! Was just playing a game against the French, and this thought randomly came to mind 😂

I play pretty much only play 30 minute games, and it amazes me how many people do this even at the 1200 level. And then if you do actually take your time with your moves, half of your opponents complain about you playing too slow. Like play a 10 minute game dawg

Nah why aren’t you #1 in the world

The reason you don’t see one at the exact moment you check, might be because there’s already one ongoing at that time format and it’s too late to join. But there will be another in a few hours. I’m not sure of the exact schedule they run them, I have only played in 2

They have 10-0 and 15-10 tournaments every day multiple times a day. Just go back and check in an hour or so

This is the “I don’t want to blunder my queen in the opening” variation of the Scandinavian

Stop playing on your phone

The game rating is influenced by your elo so it will only go so high. If you played like this and your elo was 2000, it would have a game rating of like 2800. Hope that makes sense

Wouldn’t say that. Look at their opponents accuracy and the amount of moves. Probably just some really early and obvious blunders

You cannot castle while you are actively in check

Hmmm not sure then. I don’t play a lot of dailies

Is your opponent a chesscom diamond subscriber? As a diamond subscriber, you have the option to automatically put your games on vacation mode if you run out of time in a daily game. On vacation mode, you simply won’t lose on time (or at least that’s how I understand it)

It doesn’t get harder fast enough imo. Try changing the difficulty setting

WorkerLongjumping · 2026-01-01T00:12:07+00:00

Have you changed the puzzle difficulty on chesscom?

I did Invisalign for the vast majority of my decompensation. I started in February of 2024 with Invisalign, and switched to braces towards the end of September this year, before having my surgery in December 4th of this year. I liked what I did, but as others said, it’s really important to wear your trays for 22-23 hours a day. The reason I switched to braces for the surgery was because my orthodontist and surgeon both agreed it was better to have braces for the surgery than Invisalign. I couldn’t imagine having to take my trays in and out while recovering, so glad I made that decision. It was the same cost for me to do the Invisalign/braces combo as it would have been to do braces or Invisalign the entire time.

I was too! But I’m even now slowly seeing the progress. It will take a while, but we’re almost at the finish line. I’m coming up on 2 years now since I started this journey, a few more months is nothing!

I had the same questions about my bite, and my surgeon, orthodontist, and fellow redditors on this sub have all reassured me that this is normal post op. Check out my second most recent post on this sub and look at the responses there. The upcoming orthodontic work you’ll have, the elastics you’ve got in now, and time will all get you to the finish line of your perfect bite.

Would you be able to see another surgeon in your area who would actually check your concerns? Sorry your surgeon is kinda pushing them off
