Here is my most recent game. It was a one minute bullet game. … 1. e4 c5? 2. c3! Nc6?! ...
"... d5 and nf6 do provide much stiffer resistance than any of black's other responses. I, however, believe black is still lost even after these moves. I will post an analysis shortly." - staples13 (August 27, 2018)
Nezhmetdinov has said that "he, who analyses blitz, is stupid". So it seems fair that you described yourself as a moron a few posts above: you are analysing bullet. Actually Black is fine in that line after 7...e6, but this does not matter at all. Nobody would really care talking with you seriously.
and Bobby Fischer once said,
"I beat the Jews in chess. I beat them badly too, I beat them very badly... Plus, on top of that I exposed them as cheating in chess! As outright crooks. Plus, I exposed the holocaust as never happened. Totally made up. The Jews are liars. There is not a shred of truth to this holocaust."
So you see Pfren not everything that comes out of the mouth of grandmasters should be taken as absolute truth. Fact of the matter is that people can absolutely learn from blitz games, and there is nothing wrong with analyzing one, especially ones that are as instructive as the ones I've been posting.
"he, who analyses blitz, is stupid"
There are two superfluous commas. Good English is "he who analyses blitz is stupid"
Just trying to help. Incidentally, Fischer used to be proud of his blitz games and even of his bullet games. Often, they were worth analysing and people did so.
I usually play the Alapin against the Sicilian (I like practicing the active IQP positions that rise a lot), but it is far from an actual refutation of the defense:
Replying to staples' FIRST comment (IMO the Sicilian is...) or I am unknown
I’ve noticed a massive increase in the number of people playing the Alapin. Clearly our hard work and brilliant analysis here is paying off.

I’m not playing Grand Prix anymore
@staples13 I love this so much.
Thank you. You are very kind. I worked very hard on this thread.

Have you read his next comment? I don't think that counts as "very kind" xD
I don’t think he’s taking about me, I think he’s talking about those who still haven’t gotten onboard with the Alapin
im dying after watching the last comments lol
I don’t particularly like these 2. Nf6 lines against the Alapin. They lead to a much more boring game than all of blacks other responses
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
By the way how would you explain your results against 1. e4 c5 2. c3 Nf6 3. e5 Nd5 ? You scored roughly half-half against this line, but you claim that 2... Nf6 is winning for white.

Just because I’m a moron who frequently blunders winning positions in the 2. Nf6 line doesn’t change the fact that it’s winning
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Let someone beat Carlsen, Caruana, Aronian, etc. consistently with the Alapin, then we'll talk

I posted games of both Carlsen and Kasparov being destroyed against the Alapin
"consistently"
