Well,

I know Weyerstrass hasn't lost yet. I know he's had some position where he has had to really pull it out. However, I think Seadevil may have just got the best chance for a victory that I've seen since i've been watching his games. Their games are always full of fireworks, and this one is no different.

he plays in several servers, and he has several losses in all except RHP. you can check out his games in gameknot. maybe he doesn't take them as seriously as he does in here.

I had asked him how he developed that kind of tactical and positional mastery, how did he train when he was back in 1600s etc, but he didn't answer. I was really curious.

Yeah! Really, first starting out, how did he manage to never lose a game? I know for sure that my play has developed since joining this site, but could he really have been 2400+ material since he first joined? That is quite hard for me to understand.

perhaps too many questions would take too much time to answer you , wouldnt you ? maybe you should answer a single question to him. Few weeks ago I wrote to Wstrass and he was quite polite and gentle talking about a single game he won recently. I guess he is very charm and generous , the same apply to Akizy who answer to me too .

he is not an otb player actually. he is a cc player, and has an international master norm in cc.

Well he has kindly sent me his games archive played at gameknot, but he didn't respond to me later. I wasn't going to leech on to him or anything. you make it sound like it's my fault. It's not.

he has said in PM's that he played OTB... never stated whether it was rated or not. However he has been playing for a long long time.

He's an ICCF master so yes. When I was the leader of the french defense clan he kindly annotated a couple of games for us. I think he has a very extensive database based on some of the annotations .

Hmm. Very interesting. I've never had the experience of communicating with him. I have tried though.
