What is the psychology behind this attitude?

They need to implement something so that each move takes at least some time off the clock as well. According to the games record on move 73 you had 7.9 seconds, but on move 156 you had 5.9 seconds. Nobody can make 83 moves in 2 seconds without benefiting from some sort of bug.

In any real-world situation, NOBODY is going to move, hit the clock, wait for the opponent to move & hit clock & repeat 83 times only losing 2 seconds even if you took some black belt martial artists with the fastest fingers in the world. It's bug exploitation.

The clock needs to drop at least some on every move.
@ezasucanget Show me the videotape of any chess player making 40 moves in 1 second, hell show me them making 10 moves in 1 second and I'll buy the "pre moves" excuse. Even top GMs in time trouble moving as fast as they can hardly move 5 times in a second in real life. Even if you premove you should lose time. Premoves don't exist in the real world.

Seriously try to move as quick as you can with a friend and a chess board. Both of you be just lone kings and start at opposite sides of the board and you both keep to your side totally away from the other just to move as quick as you can. You are not gonna be getting 83 moves in only losing 2 seconds I guarantee you. Maybe 8 or 10 moves in 2 seconds, but not 83.

This is what Magnus does with 30 seconds. He went 48 moves and drew on time while promoting. During this time he also fumbled the pieces up a couple of times. Let's argue and say Magnus could go a little faster and didn't mess up at all that's still like only 60 moves in 30 seconds. About 2 moves a second. Your telling me someone does "83 moves in 2 seconds on pre-moves" is not a bug?

It is a bug.
@lurarose You know what else doesn't exist in the real world? Looking at previous moves in the game. Many things in online chess don't exist in the real world. You can't draw arrows either in the real world.

If you don't like lichess premoves then play on chess.com where you lose 0.1 sec per premove.
In both of those games, it seems like you were the obnoxious one first. After you go on that king walk in the first one, it takes a lot of nerve to suggest that your opponent is the one with the weird psychological tick.


A victory in an ultrabullet game of mine that proves just how retarded premoves are. Premoves make chess super weak. You don't see this level of stupid when folks got time.
