- Retric 3y agoSomeone dying in a car accident is frequent/common as in happening several times a day, but it’s still an extreme edge case in terms of the average trip. If we’re talking about the average game you simply need to look at all time controls to get an accurate understanding not pick an uncommon example and arbitrarily suggest it’s representative of the general case.

- Retric 3y ago> Do you have better data, or are you just being an asshole? Last I checked, 55% of games on chess.com are 5 minutes or less if that’s what you’re asking. But at this point I’m just done with this conversation. Also, average account ELO was ~800 not sure if that’s active or just not banned.
- anamexis 3y agoI meant number of blunders per game at low ELOs. I stand by my estimation that even at 800, even a 5 minute game would have a median blunder count of 1 or 2. Which is hardly a constant stream of blunders, which is what I was trying to point out.
- Retric 3y agoI looked at a sampling and it was more like 5-6 per game it’s high variance some where much better or worse. But I didn’t find any summary statistics.
