It takes a while as I think he is allowed to appeal his banning but I've never known it to be revoked. Then the games get awarded to you automatically I think.

Its interesting to see ih8sens is playing on schemingmind.com and already has a rating of about 1950 and is unbeaten. Seems to play the Traxler.

yeah, well... when creators of rybka are seriously considering giving material odds against strong grandmasters to give any chance, it doesn't really matter much what opening an engine user plays against amateurs.

Speaking of it, is rybka the same as hydra chess engine ?

rybka is a piece of software, hydra is hardware. I think hydra is running proprietary software, although I'm not sure.

I went to chess.com, and saw weyerstrass there looking for games and actually got two games with him!

I also saw Ih8sens and dutchdefense there. Sens said he just analyze his opponents games with engines.

Which would, of course, give him an almost prescient advantage over his opponents, and would neatly explain any tendency to play like an engine. 😕

I knew it!!! I had played several games with him, I won but he played rather tough for where he was origionally at. I PM'd him and he said that things just clicked. I was very doubtful and now proven right!! VINDICATION!!

he stated that he was ovverrated too so i dont see him cheating to get 1900 when at chess.com he is 1800 it isnt worth the reputation or the time to do that this is a game he enjoys and cheating would ruin it...

According to his chess.com profile, ih8sens is now rated 1926 & his status is "21 games without a loss!"
Glad he has settled in well over there. 😵

If you have a look at his full profile he has actually lost 74 games out of a total of 259. The status thing is something players write themselves. I have occasionally put my status down as "Very drunk, please ignore all challenges".
