How is this possible?
funny in the position Qf1 and Qf3 lose to Bh3+, meaning the opponent truly missed the tactic and couldn't have been a mouseslip. 2nd and 3rd could prob be mouseslip.
i can see why you're not improving at all bunwithgun
There exist manifold reasons why thine adversary hath committed such a grievous blunder. Firstly, it may be ascribed to a most unfortunate misclick—a mere slip of the hand, as it were. Secondly, perchance a tactical miscalculation hath gone awry, leading to dire consequences. Thirdly, one might surmise that desperation or sheer exhaustion hath clouded their judgment, a lamentable state often brought on by overindulgence in prolonged play. In all my years at the chessboard, I dare say mine opponents have never relinquished their pieces with the folly of a simpleton; nay, they possessed intellect, though at times obscured by circumstance. ☕
these are cherry-picked, I checked a bunch of his games and found tactical errors, but not outright hanging pieces. also, this isn't proof you can get to 2400 blitz just by chomping on hanging pieces, but it only proves that 2400 occasionally blunder pieces.

I don't care about blitz. True improvement comes from 15+10.
how come it doesn't seem like you're improving at all then? maybe try chomping on hanging pieces and you would be much higher rated.
how come i reached the 99.9% percentile on this site by chomping on hanging pieces? kind of hard to improve more than that.
And also, blitz 2400 doesn't count so much as rapid 2400. I get prizes for reaching milestones but they are only for rapid

people above 1900 only make tactical mistakes about once every 20 games, most games at advanced levels are decided by strategy and knowledge of what results occur from what endgames
Im 2050 and I blunder/mistakes every 2 games. Mistakes will happen, need to improve and learn from them

wrong, i went from 400 to 2400 here. also 2400 blitz is much more respected than 2400 rapid on this site
No, #38, rapid 2400 is MUCH harder to get and MUCH more respected than blitz 2400. Blitz is just about who has the fastest thinking. Rapid is about who has the best thinking!
