Hey chess sises/bros.
Do you have any time preference of a day when you feel most fresh-minded/energetic when chess playing?

I feel like for puzzles I am best in the mornings and seems like games go better also in the mornings. After work my brain is overloaded and it seems I blunder my queen away all the time :D

By posting in the forum, you are already answering the question.
Showing a global answer is even better.

Wait an hour and let someone else post the results.

Day time! I think it would be an interesting experiment to have two accounts-one only for day time games, one only for evenings, and see where the rating plateaus for each. I am convinced my evening account would be at least 200 points lower. (I know two accounts aren't allowed though, I am just speaking hypothetically.)

Nitpicker note: "At what time you feel most fit to play?" and "At what time you play most often?" are two different question which may have different answers.

I like playing in the evening, but I'm actually best in the morning. My chess skill is like so much higher than my actual play and it only comes to shine when I have slept, eaten, total silence and so on. However I don't play in the morning cause I need my concentration for other things.
