Sergey Klimentiev a regular 1700 player suddenly started beating IM's
at the Botvinnik Memorial Open.
"players and organisers claim that after a game Klimentiev is unable to show or
recall the moves he has played. Apparently he did not even know the names of
the openings he played..."
So they took away his pen and briefcase (beware of the briefcase carrying chess player)
and moved him onto the stage so they could keep an eye on him.
He lost his last three games.

DB go into great detail (with pictures) how you can use a computer to do
a Blunder Check to see if a suspect is at it.
I'm not up on all the details of Blunder Checking, perhaps one of the lads
could explain how this differs from match ups before some of the boys on
here try it, screw it up and flood the MODS with FTP's.

My OTB rating dropped some 250 points in the 18 months after our nuptials.
All this time I thought getting married messed up my game, and now I learn that I just got the wrong pen.
