So, I have played this game against a not weak opponent. It's a Racing Kings variant... What seems funny though is that I had 0 ACPL, but 1 inaccuracy. I thought inaccuracy means you lost some centipawns in that move. Not sure if I am satisfied with this or not... I guess it will do for now :).
lichess.org/zboNziGD/EDIT: No, I am not satisfied, because I now see that I missed mate in 4... Omg, and I am on the road to rank 1 in this variant...
As an ex top 10 and now top 25 racing Kings player I think you played exceptionally well. Good luck on your quest to be champion. It takes a lot of hard work and determination to become a member of the #trophygang - but if you believe it, you will achieve it.

Coming from a player who manipulates the pairing system !
Timid has yet to play anyone rated over "1500?" to achieve his rating ! New players only , no live games, just correspondence and you too can join the club! Let's see him play a live game vs. an established player before making such boasts. Nothing but the facts.
Now here is an almost perfect game: 0/0/0 -2
Will NeverBeenTimid achieve the 1st ever 0/0/0 -0 ?
@mdinnerspace Why don't you spend more time studying chess and reading books instead of being negative on the forums and one day you too might be able to say you were in the top 10 and have a shiny profile trophy to show for it. You could also join the #trophygang
lichess.org/team/elite-lichess-trophy-players-eltpI recommend for you:
Aron Nimzowitsch - my system
Emanuel Lasker - manual of chess
Hans Kmoch - pawn power in chess
You are clearly too lazy to learn any racing King theory so allow me to explain that game for you. 1... Ka3 is already a losing move. Black gives up far too much material. A better reply is to counter pin with 1...Be4.
When will you play a live game vs. an established player instead of only playing new players (in a variant) in correspondence? It is a well known tactic, one everybody is aware of, to increase one's rating. Some go as far as calling it cheating the system. I don't use such terms, but obviously it is manipulation that is unsporting.
The fear of losing a live game with such a lofty manipulated rating must be overwhelming.
Correspondence suits my busy lifestyle. I notice you only play correspondence and rapid yourself so surely you understand. Anyway this isn't about me. It is about a chess player that aspires to reach the same lofty heights that I myself achieved in my career. Even though I may be past it now in terms of the top 10, I feel it is my duty to give him advice and inspiration so he can follow in my footsteps and become an immortal member of the #trophygang.
So... when will you play one of the big boys? Instead of new players 1500? who have never seen the game, playing for the 1st time and lose in a few moves? Not a single player >1500 have you played. Jeez, some might call it cowardice in the face of battle.
The term is "Scarredy Cat." Yes?
