So let's see, there are six conspiracy theories:

1. Cheater_1 was set up by chess.com

2. I am the reincarnation of cheater_1

3. I am a noob at SSBB because I don't play it. This also makes cheater_1 a noob also.

4. firehusky created SSBB

5. I'm a bot.

6. macer75 is Daeth reincarnated

ANy more?

I won't dispute this claim, but i do doubt you're Cheater_1 as i think he has been back under the radar.

But seriously, after the major derailing, does anyone think that some of it might have been staged? Glorious drama!

It might not have been a pre-conceived plot, but just something that was allowed to run its course.

Hey Chess.com Community!

If you're an older memeber, (or like me and was rummeging around in some older chess.com stuff, you may remeber this guy: http://www.chess.com/members/view/cheater_1

If you have some time on your hands this guys story is a great place to spend it.

Now, I've always been skeptical about the whole situtation! One thing to note, whatever the case may be, this dude generated some serious chess.com traffic. (Me personally spending lots of time just reading his stuff)

In fact, he generated so much upheavel, that I'm willing to give some credit to this theory:

"cheater_1, and all his legacy, was a pre-conceived plot devised by chess.com to draw attention to cheating and provide entertainment."

 

Call me crazy, but the founder of the site, erik, never gave anyone NEAR as much attention as this guy. I mean erick went all out on this guy. He even let him play a vote chess against the ENTIRE chess.com community! http://www.chess.com/votechess/game?id=7623

What say ya?! Am I way off?

well, I think Erik had more spare time at that time, site was small and it was some charm attached to this fact. I don't think cheater_1 was a fraud, but sure he was used as a piece of the show-bussiness, till he became unworthy or disturbing

Maybe, but man cheater_1 was GREAT throughout the whole thing. I mean, even if he tired to bring as many people to chess.com as possible, he couldnt have done better.

Hmm... I've never thought of that, but now that u mention it... that is a real possibility!

Avatar of samtoyousir

Exactly... Maybe I should just go all in and say cheater_1, and GM Phoenix are both Boris Ivanov...
