Originally posted by Nowakowskii dont think that was the insinuation Gin for clearly all it was was an oversight, nothing more, nothing less. if you check the game you shall see that white plays excellently, almost optimally and forced black to make the best choices, in fact, sometimes the only choices, and then white plays for queen side attack and gets caught over a simple oversight. He is human and it happens, who has not lost a piece to a simple oversight? or who has not seen a mate because he has been blinded by his own attack? it seems obvious that two humans were playing that game, that is why i am surprised that the thread was removed. look at whites style of play, he is willing to sacrifice material for attacks, a whole knight at one point, that's not a computer, at least i dont think so. Black on the other hand, according to the free version of rybka that i did, makes less than optimal moves, sometimes not even in the top five, again, that indicates to me that it is a very human game. Anyone that insinuates anything other than that has either not looked at the game or is drawing unsubstantiated conclusions.
So your guy's strawman accusation game is based on the fact that this player
[b]DID MAKE A MISTAKE
dear lord...you guys are great... make a mistake... and GUILTY!
.....make no mistakes at all...ever.... and GUILTY!
maybe if your rating stays below 1000, and you never post in the forums, then your legit.
Elsewise your definitely suspect.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieI had that the other day. I awoke and thought "hey, why isn't that position an easy mate in 4, probably I am recalling the position wrongly". It turned out it was the correct position... and that I am going insane.

It was Fat Lady that got the thread pulled.
I don't think he said anything untoward it was just the fact he posted
is enough these days. He's a marked man.
It was a simple over-sight by a good OTB player lookig at a monitor, playing
too quick and playing too many games.
These stupid errors are far more common on the net and can happen to anyone
at anytime. Espescially if you think you are immune to making such errors
and rely on your in built OTB sense of danger.

Originally posted by NowakowskiCouldn't have said it any better myself. Some people on this website are convinced that anyone who plays better than them couldn't be doing so legitimately since that would hurt their egos. That's why they scrutinize the games of the top players and look for anything that seems out of the ordinary, and start throwing out accusations, thus rationalizing their own shortcomings.

Make some mistakes, often, but no big ones... and GUILTY!

Having played DanVM and lost, I can attest he is a VERY strong player. However flukes do happen. Mistakes are made and you have to pounce on them when they happen. They dont happen often, but no one is perfect now are they?
