Look again: but was a horrific loss to an opponet lower then me.
ouachita and fezzik posted a lot.
I don't know about how often they post, but it seems that most of them have higher ratings.
I've lost plenty of games to opponents lower than me. I'm almost certain that it was always because I either didn't take them serious enough or they were more focused because they were facing a higher rated opponent. Probably both.
Not to mention sometimes a stronger player goes through slumps and their ratings drop. Then the slump ends and they start playing around their true strength, just with a lower rating.
Haha, nice catch eh. Didn't know I had to have grammatical ettiquette here or however you spell that word. But Then again, there are more posts Than I can deal with.
White Rabbit, do you think slumps occur more in online/live chess VS OTB?
Probably depends on how many games they are playing. If a slump is only a day or two but they are playing all day on live, then they'd lose far more games on that day then in their online games.

Define average cheater.
What about doing good against people your rating or better on online chess yet constantly losing to people way lower in live? Is there a buffer zone so to speak to get used to? Or is it just a whole new world?
Any onlookers from this point lol, question is; do cheaters tend to post on forums?

Uhm, someone who either uses an engine SOLELY to beat you or someone who, it starts with a "c"(cant remember name) that assits an engine. Or, to a more subtle tone, high rated that purposly lowers their rating.

Who knows? When a cheater is discovered..they kicked.. so the answer must be no!
Way to sum it up Stevie. -.-
What would then be considered an above average cheater, or, a below average one?
Would a below average cheater be caught by an above average staff member by reading their posts?
Nice to meet you!

Only reason I bring this up is I think I faced my first cheater on live chess the other day, could very well be wrong of course, but was a horrific loss to an opponet lower then me. Says nothing I suppose. But Topic question, do cheaters tend to post on forums??
