Again...
Supose chess is about intelligence and you compare it as a measure of intelligence as it could be IQ tests or all your definitions of intelligence. According with your tesis, GMs are the smartest persons on the world, ergo Kasparov , Magnus carlser anre the brilliants person in the world. And not tot talk that a peron that is even 100 points elo more than you should ofc more smart than you.
I disagree with your assertion. I thought I'd made that clear, when I answered, that accuracy is not necessary in fast chess but it's completely necessary in IQ tests. I didn't think I had to explain that point. Both fast and slow chess have different demands that are not part of general intelligence but IQ is the best measure of general intelligence that's been devised, although of course it isn't perfect. I assumed you'd tried IQ tests. The answers tend to be "only one is right" whereas chess isn't at all like that. Chess is more of an art form, involving accurate calculation, than a science. I disagree with the pattern recognition claim because, again, patterns would have to be exact rather than general, for that to work in chess.
At least it's possible to have a proper discussion with you so thankyou for that. Not so with the other one and I'm glad you're not like that, more for your own sake than anything else. I really have to work. Thanks for the discussion.
