In a recent blog post I made the offhand comment about short games
Probably my favorite line comes from one of my own games, in "Accelerated Jerome Gambit Declined"perrypawnpusher - NNblitz, FICS, 20131.e4 Black resigned
I just discovered that another one of my recent games was over before it began, before either my opponent or I had made a move.
By way of explanation, I found on the game site
On chess.com, a game is aborted when a player cancels the game before either player has made their first move... When a game is aborted, it is canceled and neither player is credited with a win or loss. Aborted games are also not recorded in the player's game history. However, some players may also abort games intentionally, especially when theyare losing or when playing against a higher ranked opponent.
Heh. "Higher ranked opponent." I kind of like the sound of that.
