The above post is in no way an accusation. It merely shows the results I got for this game on my pc.

That does not count - everbody has beaten Dragon Fire 😉

On the flip side. In 1983/84 I'm graded 2010 and on a
9 or 10 winning streak. I lose to a player graded 1430
in a league game in 22 moves.

That's how clever I am.

Just curious the best player (rating wise) anyone from RHP has ever defeated. Mine was nothing spectacular, I believe a 1700-ish rated player who just didn't see a mate in one. I'm sure some people on here (Northern Lad, Korch, Greenpawn, etc.) have maybe beaten CMs, Ms, or maybe even an IM or two

If we're talking about serious OTB tournament games, I've beaten three GMs (highest about 2540) and drawn against quite a few others. I once beat Psakhis (2600+) in a blitz tournament with the Wing Gambit!

On here, maris61.

Game 4923801

In real life, I'm not sure. I don't play a whole lot of rated games. My best result is a draw of a 1900 (USCF), which I may have been able to win, but didn't chance it.

Heh. Well, it was the best I think I've ever done, and I was proud of myself.

Is that a joke? If it is, it's not very clever.

I did - many years ago when he was an IM. Someone calling himself Jean Hébert joined RHP some time ago, but he was almost certainly not the real deal!

But that raises the question - are you the real Northern Lad? 😀
