Do you have actual evidence of any mistakes RHP has made during the Game Mod process?
That's not what I'm trying to say. I have said quite clearly that I support the decision RHP made. My 'evidence' is what I believe, and all I am stating here is that, my personal opinion, a simple doubt. I repeat that I do not think it would be appropriate for RHP to allow simple personal doubts to overrule what the science says. Were I a lawyer making a case for Ironman31 I would be expected to present the evidence you refer to but I'm not, and as I say, I'm not questioning the efficacy of the moderation system other than saying that it isn't 100% infallible.

Has this guy been banned for cheating?

No computer would play this badly, surely?

No one would cheat their way to a rating of only 1100, surely?

I don't think I could find a computer to play chess this badly. Was he using an old programme on a ZX81?

Thank you.

I have looked at some of Ironman31s games. Pretty weird.

If thats a computer playing then bring it on - I have no fears!

No, it comes from an old lawyer's trick/story about asking *Have you stopped beating your wife yet* and only letting the person answer yes or no.

You said quite clearly, "But we do make mistakes.". Now if you were just meaning people in general fine but I read that as the system has made mistakes and wondered if you knew something the rest of us didn't.

Come on, there was a 1200 rated player who went to their house and they had a LOT of books. Ironman even beat them in OTB!
