Ruining somebody's unbeaten record...

1. ... Ne3 !

If they think you think it's the Budapest, it may help.

You obviously need a deeper combination though. 🙂

But then they would have to move and if they had an unbeaten record they would probably just cancel the game... unless you are a good at composing problems like SwissGambit... then you can make it look like they are winning but have a sneaky win in there.

Game 5541491 Have a look.

He has seven played games and six in progress which adds up to 13 games but if you look in his public games he has 15 total. The logical conclusion is that this game did NOT affect his stats.

Because set pieces don't affect stats. Also, when I play him I play unrated anyway. I know him and know I can beat him. I play unrated so I don't ruin his rating.

Which means you cannot ruin somebody's unbeaten record using this method. 🙂

You can't affect the rating but it would show up as a loss. So somebody with an unbeaten record would no longer have an unbeaten record.

If someone challenges me to a game I would assume I get the option to accept or decline.From what is said here I understand the game starts anyway and I get the option to delete.Correct or am I misunderstanding things?

I don't think people understand... You can start a game with anybody accepting challenges... You can start a set piece game where you can win without them knowing anything about it. It will count as a loss.

I don't think you understand. If you look at the game it will say one "White wins: Checkmate" but it will NOT show up as a loss on their win/loss record.
