Evidence for crediting Silman with "some nonsense that's found nowhere in his books" or retract your statement and issue a full public apology and forever hold your tongue!

 

bwahaha called out and floundering about the forum like a well spanked bottom, you mortals can't touch the BYP, he is too awesome, just admit it and let the healing begin.

It seems that I answered your challenge six years ago. The ball’s been in your court for a long time.

Of all the people who have made chess videos, he is by far the weakest.

 

That beginners gets sucked into believing that there is any reason to watch his videos is the principle reason there are several threads on this site attempting to warn you of his errors.

This kind of reasoning has been identified to be plainly wrong several 1000 years ago.

His videos average around 2K views now. I started a Youtube in the summer (I didn't advertise, or get my friends to join, and only posted 4 videos) and I have 500+ views on video. That's more than a tenth. Done.

you are cherry picking data, these latest masterpieces have not yet had time to filter through the interment to the BYP's legions of fans, look at this one here which disproves your outlandish claims, 173K views, you mamas boys cant touch that.

I produce static content of high quality for a limited audience. That’s my preference. My students eventually surpass me in skill. That’s a better measure of success than a few bucks of advertising revenue.

I watched three chess videos this morning: two by Danny King, one by Tryfon Gavriel (kingscrusher). All three concerned games played this week in Wijk aan Zee. There are thousands of chess videos of YouTube that are worthy of your time. None of them are made by a patzer from southern Idaho.

The top player in Idaho is FM Jim Maki. I’ll likely analyze some games with him on Saturday because he’ll be working the analysis table at a youth tournament where I’ll be running the pairings. The number three player in Idaho is Michael Cambareri. My blog has a game in which I beat him in 17 moves with home preparation.

You want to keep offering uninformed psychobabble, go ahead.

I'm choosing the most recent ones because its more fair seeing as i just started youtube, didnt promote my channel, and didn't have thousands of subscribers to start with, since i had a limited amount of time

The video description you pasted here challenges my claim that he has a high school education. I thought he had graduated.

Maybe if he were backyard "professor" it might sit better.

 

It would sit better if he called himself “the slow learner”. He appears to expend a great deal of effort trying to understand chess, but fails to make more than minimal progress.

Indeed was it not DaVinci himself who stated, "its a wretched pupil who does not surpass his master"  You could watch everyone of Kingkrushers videos for a thousand years and not gain a single rating point, he's an engine junkie unlike our hero the BYP who relies on pure unadulterated humanity.  I wholeheartedly reject your silly premise outright as being outlandish in conception and impractical in praxis.
