Behave you scallywag.

Let's all just agree I have the best fashion sense in the forum. (And not just on a Tuesday).
You do have one mighty cool avatar.

Average opponent rating of 1225. I end my case. ._.
Your goal in chess is to be defeated by stronger and stronger players, until there aren't any more left. Go to it !

I dress good and look good.
I could wear a garbage bag and make it look good.
I have the most fashion sense. Not you.
I studied the art of Zoolander.

Why don't raccoons bathe? The smell is unbearable.

Intellectual interlude:

In Japanese, the word for raccoon translates as 'washing bear.'

'Arai' Washing - 'Guma' bear.

In German it is called a Waschbaer, too, "wash bear."

I only recently started using this site, but I've been playing correspondence chess for a while. I find that when I have multiple games going, I can't remember my plans in each one. I've already made 2 game losing blunders because I forgot my idea from the day before.
For example:
[pgn]1. e4 e5 2. d4 Bf8d6 3. Ng1f3 f6 4. dxe5 fxe5 5. Nf3xe5 Bd6xe5 6. f4 Be5f6 7. e5 *[/ ...[text shortened]... ized what I had done.

Is there a way to make a premove or something to avoid this in the future?
There is a Feature called "conditional moves". At the right Hand side of the board.
You can Input the move you think an Opponent might Chose and put in your next move...in "deep" mode you can go quite far.

I was about to compose the answer warning you that this might be the wrong Forum since here is Clown area, but somehow I didn't send it πŸ™

In fairness sir, the clowning began 'after' the Conditional move info had been shared.

The first and second posts in this thread gave two solutions to the problem at hand (writing down planned moves or using the Conditional move feature).

The first fence was brilliantly cleared by a thoroughbred and a donkey.

I want to apologize to the third poster in the thread, who as you pointed out correctly gave the infromation...
