Ive played some games on gameknot and i dont like it near as much as rhp. But does gameknot have stronger players? They currently have one rate 2502 and 4 people in the 2400's, and around 25 in the 2300's, our hero here on rhp, Weyerstrass has lost four games on that site and has a 2300 rating, hes still climbing, though.
what are your opinions, would it be possible to play our top on rhp vs gameknots top???

One problem: known engine users who played here still play there, I think Ironman31 is one, forget his handle over there but someone should know that one. So you would have a high probability of playing an engine there.

have a look at ironman31 - about 2500 here and there.

also look at degraaf - he is higher there than here.

Wow, GK is a joke, I just went there - can there be more obvious engine use?

It's quite well known apparently, I've heard this here before in fact.

I seem to be taking more of a beating in here then there. My gameknot rateing is over 1700. Then again I am maybe about to lose to a 1580 or so player.

Why do you call them top players? They are mostly useless to the commnity as they never tryi and help others. David tebb is most helpful!

His picture is the same as the one he put up at RHP faces, that's how we know cyrano = IronMan

Cyrano's top at Gameknot, followed by the guy who plays here as Mythrir. The guy in third is a Swedish player who (I believe) has topped 2300 OTB.

The playing strength probably is slightly higher; whether the players are stronger is another matter entirely...
