Meglet Dec 2020 3:27pm, 17 Dec 2020 21,394 posts	Quote Pin Meglet The problem with that, I find, is that you don’t get time to think and really consider it. And the jeopardy is not there!
jda Dec 2020 3:27pm, 17 Dec 2020 9,034 posts	Quote Pin jda Time controls are there for a reason, I usually play fast but no-one is online and available to play full time and especially with the difference in time zones I wouldn't give it a second thought if they used a full 2d over their moves. My match opponent is in the USA I think.

jda Dec 2020 3:29pm, 17 Dec 2020 9,035 posts	Quote Pin jda TBH I've been more surprised at the speed everyone is playing in games that are billed as 24h per move...not that it's a problem.

bish Dec 2020 3:38pm, 17 Dec 2020 158 posts	Quote Pin bish Hello JulesR. I was graded about 130 on the ecf system when I used to play regularly over the board. I think that converts to just under 1700. I’m incredibly rusty though.
iRicey Dec 2020 3:48pm, 17 Dec 2020 435 posts	Quote Pin iRicey Gobi cracking game - felt really tight, and I was behind I think until you made that error.
Gobi Dec 2020 4:21pm, 17 Dec 2020 72,537 posts	Quote Pin Gobi indeed Ricey, after our first game it was good to show you that I do have an idea what I am doing, we can play again any time you want
