Maybe one of these days I’ll be half decent

      I love chess, but I have a terrible ELO because I get anxious when playing online and can’t think straight.

      I only play puzzles on lichess really, due to this.

      I quit playing for like a year after I hit the high score there, I wasted way too much time on it. For all I played I should’ve been higher really, for a couple of years anyway.

      I did mostly 30 minute games, 10 minute ones aren’t enough time for me, but I played a lot of those too. They both qualify as “rapid” now if I recall, at first they were different scoring for ratings. The chess tournaments they have like hours for the traditional games.
