Is ultrabullet considered chess?

Many people criticize ultrabullet and say thet it is not actually chess. It is just a game of useless premoving which does no good to you. It is a game of reflexes. Others believe that ultrabullet is actually chess a little faster than other categories.
I consider ultrabullet chess only. What do you think?
It is chess in my opinion. You can not become a good ultrabullet player unless you are not at least some level of skill in longer time controls, otherwise you would fall for every trap. But I think it does not increase you longer time control skills, however.

It's a joke. Although I enjoy playing random legal moves in ultra as well.
ultrabullet is simply for fun, because it's all about dirty flagging. my advice, play proper bullet rather than crazy chess like ultra :p
A random-mover bot has got a decent rating in UB.

Nuff said, case closed.
