Bullet

It's a pity that most of the players are totally focused on winning by time instead of winning by playing an impressive game of chess.
That is because trying to play for a time advantage is the better strategy at bullet time controls.
If you try to play good moves you will get a time disadvantage that outweighs the advantage you have on the board, so it is no surprise that most players don't do that and instead play quickly to win on time. Players tend to use the strategy that increases their chances of winning and decreases those of losing.
If you want "an impressive game of chess", choose a slower time control like 25+15 instead of bullet.

well, i guess you didn't get my point excactly...what i was driving at, is discribed on another topic, regarding time discrepancy between playing on pc or tablet or iphone. it's about between 20 up to 30 sec difference in addition, i figured out. anyway, who gives a rats ass what liberty is saying...he can just kiss my whatever
If people are playing for time and hence suboptimally, just checkmate them?
