Originally posted by buffalobillThat is true, whats the point of doing thousands of moves when they're all crap. But the real question is 'are the moves he has done so far any good?'.
200 000 stupid moves is not the same as 2 000 good ones. Quantity doesn't count - well, yes it does in this case.
He has won over 5 times as many games as he has lost, but look at the rating, that speaks a thousand words, he takes on crap players.

One forum thread said he works for the government. Obviously has plenty of spare time. Should be sacked - then he can go for 500,000 moves. He only takes on players with lower ratings - look at the Open Invites he puts up.
I think it is all a bit pathetic.
You are taking this all a little too seriously.
Originally posted by jayaitchSame here. I think Cheshire Cat's accomplishment was better since he played people at any level and kept moving quickly. Helden just plays loads of games against people rated around 1200 and lower.

No one is claiming Helden is a great chess player. His opponents rating does not matter. People play here for a variety of reasons, improving your skills needn't be one.
His acheievements should be measured by the dedication he has shown to the site in the last 14 months. I've always found him to be decent, honest and online.
Originally posted by invigorateIf Invigorate wonders what his life would be like if he didn't spend so much time on RHP just think of Helden. To spend so much time at the PC...he is a real sad case
