And yet calling someone a cheater might possibly violate 3(c).

My rules? I burn them at the stake and throw the left over remains out to be eaten by coyotes.
The site's rules, meh, they don't seem to have them any more.

That's the ticket.

There's nothing wrong with his English (he has one forum post to his credit), but some genuinely strong players won't chat because it makes them lose concentration, so you can't make a lot from that. 18 straight wins is pretty unusual, but some newcomers have difficulty getting the stronger players as opponents so it does happen. In his case he has a resignation against Mikelom, who isn't exactly a weak player. He's certainly worth watching for a bit.

He doesn't speak Thai, neither; and I ALSO raised a ticket. Some of his B and Q moves were just too complacently unorthdox for their position, and I had a few dubious thoughts. Later, in my same game lost, it became apparent that those moves he made were poss 10-15 thoughts ahead of my poss 3 or 4. I got stuffed, quite dramatically, in ways I haven't experienced.

-m.

Nothing more to be said..... 😕 ; Maybe he's a grand player that we don't know. I prefer to give the benefit of the doubt, as the Philippines has some great new budding players. Shame for the Thai flag being displayed though! 🙁
