Glory be to those who linger.


As I've started my new job, I've tried out playing 5 minute blitz matches rather than the more leisurely 30 minutes slogs. It leads to funny moves and stupid moves. My opponent made a stupid move early on, but kept playing through. This lead to them nearly winning on time, as I had but 1.4 seconds left on the clock at the final move!
