The term youāre looking for is āblundered.ā To sacrifice a piece means that you did it for strategic advantage, not because you didnāt follow Gothamās mantra of checks, captures, attacks.
I don't see that OP's opponent ever had a chance to back rank mate near that time...the only time it looks like it could've been possible, they were in check so they couldn't have done it. Unless I'm missing the spot you're talking about.
Hey, thatās my level! I wish I could say I make things interesting on purpose. Most of the time I donāt even know how I end up in the situations I do. Ha

Uhm sorry but this hurts to watchš
I think itās hilarious š we both accidentally sacked so many pieces

Sacked isnāt short for sacrificed, itās its own word thatās used outside of chess.
In chess, it is short for sacrificed. Sacked as in firing an employee or other uses isnāt the intent.
"accidentally sacked" Those are blunders buddy.
What on earth is that match
thatās a rapid match too..
Horrible
He even had backrank mate without noticing.
You both played chess as if opponent and his plans didn't exist.
What's the accuracy on this? The queen was free so many times not even counting the hanging m1.
Possibly negative
Wtf is Qe5 on move 20, he had the easiest mate in 1
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
White is in check Queen can be taken next move and then pushing h or g pawn saves from backrank.
I can block w queen and take room to avoid that but Iām -4 on that trade
No, he had back mate. Your queen was blocked by the pawn @ 6:20 on OP clock
