He sucks pn GK, and GK usually has weaker players....

How can you know that strongest GK players are weaker than strongest RHP players? Also dont forget about cheaters (some of them banned in RHP).

Also beaten 4 times at ChessHere.
Perhaps this proves that RHP, whilst not perfect, is the cleanest. Many thanks to the Mods, keep up the good work!

remember, "Akizy" was akizy´s cat, only he died a while ago.😉

I find it fascinating looking at Weyerstrass's games, that he has a tendency to develop his kings knight to the 2nd rank (both in English as white, and French as black), and a willingness to weaken f3 or f6 by pushing both the e and g pawns. These are things that with my scattered gleanings from various books and such I try to avoid - not really knowing why. I almost always put the N on the f-file! If I play the e pawn, why would I then play the g pawn as well - I already have a place to put the KB. Any comments on "non-standard" development welcomed!

Intresting.You should make a seperate thread about it,then you'll have more chance on getting some input for others.

why don't you ask Weyerstrass. I don't know how friendly he is, but if I were in your shoes and knew what in the world you are talking about, I'd ask him...

He responded to a message I sent him, he's very nice and friendly, but I'm in the same clan he's in so I don't know if he responds to random people, probably people he knows or fellow DUNE members.

OK - started a new thread, and will PM W

He is now three points away from the highest rating legitimately achieved on this site (to my knowledge).

the best game i saw so far on RHP is this one :
Game 1682902
