Sort:
11. I was applying things I learned in Loomis' blog.
Hahaha, I almost used "I was wasting time writing my blog".
Those doesn't seem hard to be avoided
Hahahaha. #7 is priceless
#1 is great. Very creative and funny.
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
Those are really funny! Great job!
Very good cgheers:)
1. Fer me, ive also set it to touch move and dropped the piece in the wrong square by mistake a fair few times now :s
2. my chess buddies (Mr Shirz and Mr Vodka) whispering the wrong moves or making the board a wee bit funky looking. Occassionally they do come up with corkers though!
3. In Blitz here i have frantically knocked my mouse right off the table tryin not to run out of time. (oh yeaah i sure did)
4. My cat makes the move for me. He often likes to lounge over the top of my arms, keyoard and mouse which can make it tricky and he has made a blunder before.
5. am extesntions of numebr 2 - when those buddies reduce me to a bibbling wr3ecj, a little j like now and i shouldnt probably not play tricky games in this state..but its still fun, so i do, and lloose heh.
Dafties, im a wee dafty.

5. i hit the offer draw button, but then i see a win and i want to take the draw back so i press resign.
6. i forget wich side i am because the computer flipped the board.
7. my enemy cheats (who do those sick cheaters think they are?!)
8. i sacrifise my rook to take the enemy's rook.
9. psycological warfare
10. i do this:
Since I will soon not be able to blame a lack of Opening Explorer for my losses, I'm preparing some pre-canned excuses. In an ode to StacyBearden, I present you the top ten reasons I lose at chess:
10. The picture of the sun on my desktop background got in my eye
9. I thought the knight could also move in an "M" shape
8. I can't smell fear over the Internet
7. My bishop had a crisis of faith
6. My dog ate my sealed move
5. My opponent doesn't know how to play my favorite opening
4. The "Submit Move" button reminds me too much of Regis Philbin so I turned it off and made a mouse slip
3. I thought a rooks of opposite colors ending would be a draw
2. I used up all my vacation time trying to delay Scholar's Mate
1. My pawns formed a union and went on strike demanding promotions for reaching the 7th rank
