And if you saw him on Richard n Judy earlier he couldn't even do sums that I could do as a foetus!

Incidentally, that kid called Dante apprently "uses his superior intellect to sometimes try and manipulate people".
I'm thinking he'll be ruling this planet within a few years.
Superior intellect and ruling the planet? As yet the two have never converged.
I was a child genius. Now I am stupid. Although I did retain the lack of ability to socially interact

What went wrong with me. 🙁
IQ of 167 and chess rating only 1320.
Once again I fail to achieve the high standards that I should be capable of.
Try not losing as many games. Your rating will go up. I find this is what holds me back 🙂

Think so?
The words tail, between and legs spring to mind...
I attempted to read his "thesis", too. Didn't understand most of it!
😳
I think he is taking a low profile now if he is still here. There was a dude awhile back tried to claim he was Kasparov untill he had a few games under his belt....

Watch C4 now - shortly is an 8 year old (or close) who is tipped to be the next British Champion.
IQ of 170 or something.
Could be interesting. Which would be a first for me in any forum
But the highlight was the odd family with 4 kids who didn't take the IQ test. The mum looked like a computer generated monster, the dad appeared to be Arthur Fowler in the later stages of dementia and kids didn't demonstarte anything except social exclusion.
The chess player seemed the most normal. But in the kingdom of the blind the one-eyed man is king.
