Am I Reading these Stats Correctly?

I'm currently searching my Blitz Stats.

When I click on Result and Select Mate
Then Check Winner: BreakReign

It Shows me as having 142 Checkmate Wins.

Then When I deselect BreakReign so it shows all checkmates it shows 190 Checkmate Wins.
So Heres my question:
Am I reading that Right?
So, I Only 48 of my losses are from Checkmates?

The rest of my losses are all from Time or me Resigning?
Good Grief; thats ridiculous if thats right. Let me know; if I'm not just reading it wrong.

Sorry, you cannot see breakreign's chess insights.
Maybe ask them to change their privacy settings ?"
You use advanced search, not chess insights for this. I think you've got it correct. You've played a total of 798 Blitz games and 190 have been decided by checkmate. You've won 142 of those checkmate endings. You're even better than you think, 10 of your Blitz games were draws and 5 were stalemates. So, you've only been checkmated in Blitz 33 times.

Overall, you do have slightly more losses than wins in Blitz though. So yea, most of you losses are from time. Kind of makes sense though. You're taking slightly more time to make better moves and it's giving you more checkmate wins, but taking slightly more time to make better moves is making you more vulnerable to loosing on time.
I just did a little more digging and found that most of your loses in Blitz are not from time; most of you loses are from resigning.
Didn't know about that setting in insights, great graph, love the colors.

Thanks Rise.

Yea thats what I meant; It wasnt a post of self congratulations it was a post of shame hahah.

I got to stop resigning so freakin much.

That being said; I'm usually not the type to resign with checkmate incoming. (Unless the player clearly has checkmate and they are just letting the time tick for whatever reason; after about 30 seconds of that nonsense i resign)

A Good percentage of them are time losses; where I'm down to no time and the other player also has a heavy lead (or a heavy time lead and I have no checkmate available in the next 10 moves [that i see])

I have to stop doing that though; it'll make it a lot more useful to know how many time losses I actually have vs how many timesI was checkmated.

Early new years pledge; no more resigning.

Thanks for the help and confirmation ya'll
