I was really enjoying chess but after doing 400 games all the games feel the same and uneventful and its kind of lame. how do i get more eventful games? always in the same end games ect

Why is the notation so big and the clock so small?!!!!

Typa shenanigans happening in 200 elo chess

I have a Chessnut Air and I wanted to play OTB with a friend. We both have a Chess.com account. How can we play on the board and have the match "recorded" on our Chess.com accounts?

I mean, I can start a match with my account challenging my friend and play on the board with her remotely, but what if we are together and we want to play OTB but still have the match on the app for both of us?

I ended up winning with .5 seconds and that brave standing pawn

I know it's not a brilliant because if it wasn't Mate in 11 I would have won material, but still felt really good to find that. Even though I made it M12, because I played one move different afterwards.

A novice and open to learning-... I know it seems clear cut- you win and ELO goes up, you lose and it goes down... but what confuses me is this- Ive got two accounts- one hovers between 275-325, the other at around 550-650. Ive played many games on both (admittedly more on the low ELO one) but they remain pretty constant and I do not notice a consistent difference in the level of play in my opponents on each of the accounts. Maybe Im overthinking it but wondering if theres anything about this a more experienced player cld illuminate for me.

I am looking for some feedback on my game(s). I regularly check my games with the engine analysis to see its evaluations and suggested lines to improve my level, but engine analysis doesn’t always help, because they don't show the full ideas behind a move which imho which isn't very helpful.

I have uploaded a game of mine here (I am playing black here for reference)

Not a question, but I hope there was a Favorite option to go back to our saved games.

Below 900, I felt like people would blunder within a few seconds. 😂
Now, above 900, people actually take their time, think for a minute, and then blunder anyway. 💀
But the difference is that these blunders aren’t always obvious. I’m starting to realize that finding them and knowing how to punish them is becoming a bigger part of the game.
I’m at around 900 Elo right now, and I can already feel the difference.
For those who climbed past 1200 or 1500, what’s the biggest thing that helped you get better at spotting your opponent’s blunders?

I'm super new to chess😓

okay i can explaing myself better. yes i am playing inefficient chess, but the algorithm clearly doesn’t know how to read tempo or bleeding out your opponents material. like for example the move he makes on 21…f5 is bad because it’s bad on move 22.Qxb5 i get a free pawn. the algorithm is trying to tell me (22.Bcd5+ is better) but i end up doing the correct sequence anyway. i see that as redundancy and then my favorite part 29.d4 is a blunder it’s only a blunder if your opponent gives up and plays for a draw. which my opponent clearly isn’t good enough to do that. so why does the algorithm call me a bad player. i would call myself inefficient but because im bleeding the opp, does it really matter? because i can just ignore it and pay the cheapest subscription and keep playing or move to a free one. i like that chess.com has a large player pool thats it.

I was hoping he would take the bishop, but I guess he had to.

Still a smothered mate i guess

Give me some tip 🥲

I knew I was going to lose, don’t get me wrong but IMO I find it weak to not just checkmate. They chased me for a while. Why bother? I guess because I refuse to resign?
