After 20 years of playing correspondence-style daily chess, ZorroTheFox has just made his 3 millionth move.

As a result, he becomes the first player with a royal purple shield next to his name.

He has been a tremendous member of the RHP community during this time, and we hope he continues to play on for many more moves too.

Congratulations @ZorroTheFox!


Congratulations, Z!

Indeed a great accomplishment by him. I don't know how he does it and maintains a decent rating at the same time!!!

I have enjoyed over 300 games with him myself a small amount compared to some.

He is always a Gentleman win or lose. Of course against me he does more winning than losing while blitz playing me. I wouldn't stand much of a chance in a regular tournament time against him for sure!!!

@marko-krale who was his tough opponent for the first 1 million left the site evidently three years ago with 1.5 million moves.


@Ponderable
Marko Krale was a formidable opponent! Because of Marko Krale, I decided to go for the 2nd Millionth move when Marko Krale kept playing beyond his 1st Millionth move!


Hey, ZORRO, my dear friend!
We have played many games together since I´m here on RHP.
Today I´m back from holiday - but with my restricted internet I was a witness of the legendary move 3.000.000. Who will ever top this?
Thank you, ZORRO, that you made me part of your "countdown" to your magic move - and I hope you´re marching on for a new great record!
Thanks for fair play, membership in my clan "Mythos RW Essen" and your humanity!

Perhaps this is some OCD kicking in, but the purple "3" shield could be added to the "what do all of those colored stars mean?" section of the FAQ's.

Congratulations, Zorro! To this mere 20,000+ move player, it is astounding.
