Finished bullet game of 17 moves in less than second

Hi,

i just played a 17 move game, and once game finished, I noticed that I had only used 0.30 seconds. Kind of concerned that if it going to flag me as cheater or anything. Any help/assurance will be great. Thanks.
No, you won’t get marked. With the premove, I assume your opponent was a bit slow causing you to spend little time.

This is an accomplishment that I suggest being proud of. Congrats!
I think there was a change in the premove settings lately. There used to be a minimum amount of time for each move, that now has disappeared, so totally premoving many with a fraction of seconds is possible. Not sure I like it too much, even if I got my share of wins due to that...
It's kind of unfair, especially to those with slow internet. Some players around 1700 I have played against, they had totally losing position and down to a second and I had more than five seconds. They still managed to win on time, 2-3 seconds difference is ok but anything more than that is unfair.
