An example. I just played a game, it lasted fourteen moves, ended with a check. All White's moves were pawn moves, because, it transpires, my opponent was trying to see how many pawn moves they can make in a row.
Ho ho very amusing, but how amusing is that for the opponent, in this instance me? They've had a laugh - I've had my time wasted. And it seems to me that that's a very childish way to approach a game of chess, or come to that anything else - all that matters is whether I have a laugh, never mind if I annoy anybody else.
"Do you play chess?"
"Yes, but I prefer a game with a better chance of cheating."
