NOTE: I only play correspondence chess. And this rating is correspondence chess. I don’t know what my elo rating would be in time controls. I have a disability that affects the mitochondria (energy production), and I’m unable to concentrate for a whole game so I play correspondence.

This game was pretty cool. I managed a centipawn loss of 19. And to win by +3 when my openent made 0 blunders (1 mistake, 3 inaccuracies), and I managed to scrape the game by with only a single inaccuracy (0 blunders, 0 mistakes).

I tend to spend a long time analysing moves and even take notes (which is allowed in correspondence chess), so perhaps my rating is more of an indication of the effort I put in than my true skill. But I’m quite proud nonetheless.

    Cheers. I’ll message you on lemmy when I feel like starting a new game.

    Yeah I had heard of this aggressive line responding to Bg4 with Ne5 (which the engine treats as an innacuracy for white) that can be punished by black if they play perfectly but leads to some interesting lines and a few possible traps for white and I pulled one of them off haha. Can’t remember where I saw the trap, maybe a chessable course? or even a youtube short? but it worked out haha.
