Hi

I just wanted to watch some others' 10|0 game and I joined this one.

Maybe just some beginners' game?

Both players were rated about 2000! And then I checked their profiles and saw that they play each other only a few moves and then one of them resigns (there are some quick mates, too).

Within 8 games, one of them got from 1647 to 2208 points, and they are still playing.

Is this allowed?

Some people would sell their mother just to get another 20 points, let alone 500.
