Please people,
Calm down on this issue and stop posting wild guesses here ...
Remember what happened the last time people started wild allegations about two great players - Dantes and Prawn Sarnie ???
THEY BOTH LEFT
Well I can only speak for myself here, but I'd say these people leaving was a huge drawback for RHP as they were both extremely strong players.
If they are indeed back (and I'm not participating in wild gossip here), then all of us should respect if they would like to remain anonymos. They are not breaking any laws, and I'm sure Russ is happy to receive another 2 membership fees...
So please stop predicting things that you cannot be sure of.
Thanks a lot,
Regards
Boris
Hello,
All this fuss over nothing, If Ironman31 is ed, great, its good to see him back on the site. If he feels he needs to play under a new name, thats fine too. Ed had his reasons for leaving, and IF, and I repeat, if this is the real deal, then im sure he will be welcomed back accordingly.
As for Prawn Sarnie, yep, its a a fair kop - he was me in a past life. from my point of view, i felt it necessary tro take a break, but found it very hard to, hence the alter ego.
I personally hope Ironman31 is Ed, as he never managed to beat me in 6 attempts last time (4 of which were abandoned whilst in progress), I should be able to put him on my easy to beat list 😵
the player formally known as Prawn
Hm... this could mean nothing, as you can easily change this, but ED is an Italian Master, IM is from Wales...
Anyway, if he indeed is ED, so what? He isn't braking any rules, as his other account is no longer active!
And yes, Akizy will whoop you all! 😀

p.s. IronMan/IM, IM for Iron Man and Italian Master/International Master... hm... I'm seeing a pattern here... 😛
EDIT: IronMan or not, ED IS moving again:
"Last Moved 13 May '04 00:32"
Originally posted by dan182You know this rumor about Ironman31 is scaring me!
if indeed it is mr dantes playing as iron man, then surely we have a breach of the T&C (i think anyways).
now given that russ maybe able to tell, would ironman/dantes then be expelled or forced to reveal himself ???
besides why would dantes return and risk the T/O making his stats look not as pretty ?? & why did he resign the majority of his games but c ...[text shortened]... play Exy.
either way it has bugger all do with me, so i will just watch with interest.

Edmond Dantes isn't his real name. His real name probably isn't Matthew though as he's Italian.
Edmond Dantes, for those of you who should have been reading literature instead of playing chess, is the main character in "The Count of Montecristo."
As for speculating whether IronMan is Edomnd Dantes, or whatever, and who will be the next great RHP star, it smacks of mindless fan adoration. I'm sure none of these guys care one whay or the other whether patzers are gushing over their unblemished record.
How about trying to figure out how you guys make the next step up and improve your own play?

A draw after 13 moves... 😕
Anyway, he doesn't look good in his game with LittleBear...:
Game 495987
It's logical though, after all, LittleBear is an Apostle!
