    The Vedas gave mankind numbers and God gave mankind intelligence.

    The chess you play is from the Vedas.

    Science began with the Vedas......the science of living. (the true and only science)

    If it seems like I am picking on you, you will have to understand where I am coming from. I think the way ...[text shortened]... people liars without cause is ridiculous, especially when you are not being truthful yourself.
    You say that I "parade around the forums spreading ... ignorant drivel
    and calling people liars without cause"
    . I spread intelligent drivel and
    when I call people liars it is not without a cause. In my opinion it is you
    that are guilty of what you have charged me.

    As for numbers, I do not know what the numbers stand for or if they are
    true numbers or how they were obtainied. So your guess is as good as
    mine as how to explain them. Like Huckleberry Finn, I don't take much
    stock in them.

    With Love,
    Ron

    How come you have significantly higher engine matchup rates than the current world number 1, and for that matter every world champion there has ever been? What would you put that down to Ron?

    You could be making this all up for all I know.

    P.S. The only reason to use a computer engine would be to win.
    I would play the very best move in that case. That should mean
    100% mactchups, shouldn't it?

    I could've made it up, but i haven't. You have higher engine match-up rates than any chess world champion.

    You need a stonger engine.

    No, the engine you use, is clearly not the best chess player in the world. As you point out, it doesn't win every time. Many positions in chess have several good moves available (otherwise all matches between experts would be identical). If you have 100% matchup with any other player whether computer or human for more than a game or too, it is absolutely certain that one is copying from the other.

    Well, I do have to admit, I do sometimes copy from master games, but
    that usually only goes so far.

    When you say "admit", you mean you have been hiding something, or that you are admitting your guilt?
