Ugh, not only do you say that you don't use 'machine analysis' and do anyway, you go ahead and say that.

Qc2 was not 'the winning reply.' Qc2 isn't some crazy tactical combo that wins the game. It is a positional move which is equalled by a couple of others in the position. Certainly it is not the one 'winning reply.' There are many combinations white has here on the kingside in order to convert his winning advantage.

Also my ability to switch to the king side was much better than yours. My Rooks could have swung over in a single move, but you seem to be rather blocked up over there, with only your king and knight, holding the fort?

I still don't understand how you can't see, even with the computer analysis, how badly you played up to move 17.
I don't really care about anything else in the game, I just want you to understand that you didn't play better like you're saying.

There's actually a way on the kingside, perhaps somewhat difficult but it's there.
Point is though that I don't like how he's trying to assert that he played more accurate chess for the whole thing. Yes I resigned but that is irrelevant.


I don't see it but that's me; if there is then fair enough lol. Well if you go down it says you made 1 mistake and 1 blunder and he made 3 inaccuracies and 2 mistakes, I'd call it more accurate on your part I suppose (noting that the "blunder" still maintained an advantage)

Wait a minute did you just write this: "You made four major blunders whilst i only made one."
Love the fact that white is better for the whole game and that what you said is not what the computer analysis says.


the computer analysis gives you the better position, which in this case means you had a better opening. But also you made major blunders. And yes it is the machine analysis which told me this. I am not playing you again because i don't know if i could win another against you. So thanks but no thanks.

And the fact that the evaluation was always better for white! That is definitive evidence. To say that black played more accurately would make literally no sense.

'Inaccuracy' , 'inaccuracy' 'mistake' and 'blunder'. And yes it is the machine analysis which told me this. I am not playing you again because i don't know if i could win another against you. So thanks but no thanks.


"I am not playing you again because i don't know if i could win another against you"

I knew that was the reason. I knew it. Good to hear it from you though.

As for the fact that you seem unable to read numbers, I will parrot the computer analysis to you:

Me: 1 mistake. 1 blunder, AFTER WHICH I was still much better.

That is not four major blunders. What the hell...

Yeah. I suppose the best measure is average centipawn loss.

A game of chess is also decided by factors other than accuracy, such as time, pressure and originality. The first two of which, lichess computer analysis doesn't accurately reflect!

Look, if you want to say that you actually played well enough to deserve a win because of 'factors that a computer does not take into account', then go ahead.

But until you reflect and look back at actual play rather than results, you won't get much better. Your play was very inaccurate, you seem too arrogant to admit it, so there's nothing more I can do here.

The one thing I'm happy with is that I got you to admit you won't give me a rematch because you don't think you could win another game. So I'm alright now.

Nope. Nice try.

You played well, i'll give you that. There is even a case for saying you should have won, and you did have the clear advantage from the opening. But I played defensively and you weren't able to find the break through. Plus you were getting in to time trouble if i remember.

Let's try and end this on a good note okay?


Well I can't register lol, registration email didn't send

True.


Do you wanna have a game at some point (not today)? Dw I won't make a big deal of it, that was only because I was a bit frustrated with his false claims.
You seem to have a decent understanding of chess, so I think it'd make for an interesting game.

I'll play you if you like too. Just tag me if you want a game (I'm about 2000 rated).

Yeah if you like. Tbh, especially being online, I'll rush moves and probs make ridiculous mistakes as usual. My play is, I think, usually below my understanding. So don't expect to not win quickly. :colonhash:
