Me vs Weyerstrass

Place your bets!! How many moves before I will resign? (I'll resign when I dont feel I have any reasonable chance). My guess is im already lost but ill be super lost at around 12 moves, hopefully not though....

I think you'll last ~25 moves. 😉

Move 1. 😉

Which means what, exactly?

It means that he doesn't speak on here for fear of being found out.

Either that or he spends all his time playing chess and improving rather than waste time reading and writing in these forums.

I plump for number 2.

there are 10 000+ active players on rhp, of which maybe a couple of dozens post in the forums.

He has also played a couple of games (drawn one and won by timeout of the other) against Jean Hebert who is a high profile IM.

I am sure that if Jean suspected him of engine use (which an IM or GM can spot quite easily), he would report to the relevant mods.

I suspect Weyerstrass is also an IM.

Innocent until proven guilty, and I suspect, due to his record, that the mods have taken a good look at his games already. The climate of distrust on here by some takes the shine off an amazing record that we should all be applauding.

On a side note, he does take performance enhancing drugs, though that's not against the rules.

Trains44 posted in the forums all the time, look how that turned out.

Weyerstrass is an IM Ronald Weyerstrass.Look him up

I think one move sounds about right.....He is NOT an engine I've spoken to him quite often and plays for the ICCF where engine use is monitered extremely well....

He is an ICCF master, not an IM.
