Well you have a lot of wins coming your way Siclian Smaug. two over Stroubidoul and about six over GauraV. Probably not justice for the times Stroubidoul has engined you but no longer a threat hey?

Yeh, i reported that one too, lol 😀
How did you spot him? it's easy on live chess eg at yahoo because they always seems to take the same amount of time to move! For example in say a 40 min game (when obviously there isn't time to ponder too much) they will still take about 30-40 seconds to make a blindly obvious move like taking your bishop with their pawn as I am exchanging, yet in a very complicated position they will take the same amount of time (ish) But on here I get suspicious but usually put it down to me being paranoid, because it's so hard to tell. Because of all the cheating I now just see my cc as a way of improving my otb game, which is a pity because I used to prefer cc to otb

View their first games (low graph) and watch them pile the wins. There is no magic chess pill.

Speculation on my part... but I'm sure those first games are not master level.

Just a thought, what would happen to Vertigo? Stroubidoul was the leader of this clan. Does another member become the leader or does the clan become no more?

yeah that seems fairly blatant, if you watched it otb, you would never think the winner was an 800 player (against a >2000 player)

Yep, 6 games v GuaravV and 2 v Stroubidal which will now be removed from my excessive game load. 🙂 Actually I was referring to just GuaravV when saying about all the rating points lost- I think I've lost to him 8/8 or even 10/10 excluding the current 6 which were all looking like GuaravV wins.

What a winker!

EDIT: Talent beat me to it, LOL! Great minds wink alike 😀

These friggin' jerks and the jerks that lower their ratings to enter banded tournaments are a plague on this site. Why was this fairy not kicked off the site many months ago? What's the hold up in dealing with these buggers?

The RHP Justice League is doing a great job but I wish they would pull the trigger a little quicker.
I guess they want to make sure they are right and not mistake talent for cheating. I'm glad they got him though and hope they continue.

The same thing that happens to any clan that loses a leader. Someone within the clan has to ask everyone if anyone wants to take over. That's what I did when the Dune clan lost our leader due to health reasons. When nobody wanted to be the clan leader I took over by notifying Russ.

I also reported Stroubidoul. That makes three.

Did anyone NOT report Stroubidoul?

Damn! I really need to get better so I can play some of these engine users and get my share of the free wins. Unfortunately, you don't see a lot of blatant engine use at 1500.
