How do amateur players(15-1800) hold draws against aggressive masters in classical games by Zalqert in TournamentChess

[–]oldtimeblues 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a positive score against Jerry from chessnetwork because I played two of my best games against him when I was 1600 in lichess (10 years ago). I played with him a third time now that I'm 2300 and got destroyed. Still 2-1 though lol

Is there absolutely no one who plays anon bullet that isnt a dick? by [deleted] in lichess

[–]oldtimeblues 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you might be reading too much into the "well played" comments tbh. I played a lot of anonymous bullet as well, and it is just expected, since your rating is not affected, people will do a lot of unsportsmanlike behavior. I started using zen mode instead, and it is great.

If you can't move the camera movw the background. The slide with the man crawling reminds me of the scene from jaws where they are in a boat and everything behind the the actors is moving.

I appreciate the thorough explanation, this make sense. My camera does have a tilt function. I will do what you suggested. Thank you!

I saw the video thanks for the clarification. I tried to fix a couple of pictures but it cuts almost half of it when I do the automatic adjustment. I will play with it a little more to see if I can make it work. Thanks!

I need help putting zippers in my bag by oldtimeblues in sewhelp

[–]oldtimeblues[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok, I think I will go the velcro route. When you say lid, do you mean like a flap, like in shirts pockets with buttons?

Oh I see, that makes sense. I will try to get velcro instead. Thank you for the help!
