It seems none of the GMs on chess.com actually play. However, I would bet one of them is the best player on chess.com.  FIDE  ratings are more reliable than net ratings.

The Topic Forum is named:"Best Player".

So,it is not about a blitz, or highest rating now player, at all!

It is about Tournaments mainly! 

Play serious Tournament Games, fight, create Art, and grow up!

 If you cannot fight and win dozens and dozens of the Tournaments, play ink games around a real Chess, as most did!

 Thank you, Ray_Brooks! You are one of the real players, who did not afraid to put all his time and efforts into the 64 board of life...

If anybody think that he is a best player, just prove it in the hard time game board! Orthewise, diskuss a Stats!

 But the way, I have to finish more than 100 Tournaments, yet>>>...

 See you later!

 Greg.

Too bad there's not a stat for "tournaments delayed". You'd be leading that too!

Actually the same bug that shows Greg with two false timeouts also has lowered his time/move ratio. His move rate is actually quite long.


I'll take your word for that and withdraw the post (he's always played quickly against me).

Awardchess, are you saying I don't play chess on this site? Most of my games have not been tournament games, so quoting my tournament states is not meaningful. I typically have between 10-20 games because this is how many I can play comfortably. Even then I sometimes have to put games off longer than I would like because I don't have the time to focus on them the way I need to. I feel a little bad when I do this to someone -- clearly you don't.

 Ah yes, now I remember.

"I'm the best" and "Who care?" are the two main topics in the bestselling "How to Avoid Friends and Alienate People".
