White is rated approximately 2367, and Black is rated roughly 2582 (after this game). According to computer analysis, White still had some play left after move 56 and should have continued playing.

That can't be for real?  I would guess around 400 or 500 for both of them.

 it must be suicide chess! its a chess variant where you try to lose rather than win. they may be very high rated, who knows.. unless they were really trying to win haha

The way I used the play was you had to take something if you could.

Iunno, maybe 2000+? Pretty complicated.

I'd hazard a guess that they were rated in the 17-1800 range.  I've never played this variant, but I liked the combo to force the capture of Black's rook with the double check and the forcing moves by White up on Black's Queen-side were good too.

Both players are between 1440 and 1480.

Playing to lose is harder then playing to win!

In suicide chess captures are forced moves... thus, 3.Qg5 would be illegal.

It's not proper "Suicide Chess", in that variant you are compelled to capture whenever possible. For example: 3. Qf4 Qg5 (3 ....Qg5 is illegal here as the capture 3 .... exf4 is available and must be played). I reckon it's Lenny Bongcloud and one of his stoner pals trying to play standard chess.

 

My guess is that both players have a zero rating, most of those moves looked random to me.
