Where, How Long, and How Many?

Post by AdminX »

I was looking at my stats on Lichess and was shocked to learn how many blitz games I had played there. Plus the fact that it has already been close to 7 years of membership. :shock: Man how time flies by.

Member since March 3, 2015 and Played 14,688 blitz games so far. Just think, that there are members there who have put in way more work than I have there. Where do they find the time. I know for a fact that I have spend more time playing chess there than anywhere else and I have had accounts just about everywhere that chess is played.

PS: Except Yahoo, I never touched it, not even with a stick.

Indeed, Blitz is a great way to grow old and not remember doing so...

Lichess:
Blitz: 141 games (2182)
Rapid: 19 games (2134)
Classical 9 games (2258)

I play less here than anywhere except Chess24...and haven't in a few months at either.

Mostly: ICC, Chess.com, and Playcess. I haven't looked up up stats on those but I would presume in that order.
