Time

How can there be 29 moves at the end of the game and a players time drops half a second. Please explain?
Easy, premoving (moving while it's the opponent's turn).
That is a long game. In lichess you can premove which takes no time so that is how they reached it.
Not at all. Just seems odd that with only 2 seconds left we can make 29 moves and he still had 1.5 seconds left.
It is odd because even with premoving it is hard and it will still take at least some of your time (just take into account the mouse click times). Perhaps he was just really fast.
Premoving is very easy to master, especially in these types of endgames where one side is "Forced- Checkmate" winning.
@bruhmomentum2007 No, it's not hard and it takes no time assuming each premove is made on the opponent's turn. There are ultrabullet games of over 200 premoves. I don't have those games but perhaps someone can link.
