GM Within 6 months?

It is particularly interesting that he speaks 46 languages given the fact that his grasp on English is so tenuous . He can't seem to write even one or two complete sentences without making grammar and spelling errors.

Impossible

I don't think he is trolling. I think he is truly as dilutional as he appears. Trolls get a kick out of getting reactions--especially negative ones--from people. Their primary goal is to get under people's skin. But when Polymath gets a well thought out negative reaction that he is unable to adequately respond to (which are many), he blocks the poster. A troll wouldn't do that. A troll would love the negative attention.

magipi, Again, the lazy wokeness shows through. First off "I clearly said 32 not 46 languages", second both me speaking with people ONLINE LIVE and my 14 channels are ALL listeded, indexed, etc on YouTube. If you just went to ONE of my channels you'd see the links to ALL other 13 on the main page. I mean seriously dude are you truly that lazy.

I mean if you don't care "or give a sh*t" about me, my channels, etc then just say so. Don't make a post like that showing you're laziness in not even having the ability to spend 5 minutes to check YouTube. Oh wait? You're not knowledgeable enough to use Google, YouTube, Reddit, etc to do research on me?

I mean seriously I've been online sense 1996 "longer than you've been alive probably" I am NOT that difficult to research "maybe a little difficult because of spending 17 years as a security research" wait I get it now. It just came to me. No one here knows how to research something difficult because 62-polymath doesn't connect to me personally other than the YouTube channel and the website?"

You all say I'm a Troll and I get it now. No one here has the intelligence, knowledge of technology, and problem solving to Dox someone. Actually I'm going to bet that know one here even knows what Doxing is? Dudes, this is what "experienced" people do to trolls on the internet, Discord, YouTube, etc but you all ONLY know chess. You don't even know how to truly embarrass a Troll? Too funny.

Ok, I'll leave you all to your little game. Seems to be the ONLY thing you're all good at in life.

Random word #1: wear!

You can wear a shirt that says that you love chess!

Just wanted to change the topic to something more cheery.

jesus, polymath. give it a rest. you are not convincing a single person, other than yourself, that you are a man of extraordinary learning abilities. stop telling us how smart you are and show us. maybe you can start by ramping up your chess rating into 4 digits?

Oh, no.

Please tell us, Lonnie: how does it feel to be a genius?

If you were that good at chess, the difficulty might be in finding high enough rated players to get points from, not to mention the fact you would probably have to go overseas. You also have to get 3 norms.

I am confused now. Is this guy becoming a GM or not?

Nobody could be GM in only 6 months.. Unless I'm mistaken, humans are restricted... For their own good.

The OP of this thread may have made the single most ignorant post in the history of chess.com forums. That is quite an achievement.

Even less likely than Andrea Botez becoming one...

Hello

Know a little about what you're talking about before you publicly post something. For one Andrea Botez is already a woman FIDE master. Will she reach GM before me? Maybe but not likely simply because I'm a male. I'm not racist, prejudice or anything it's just simple stats.

There are 41 women GMs in the world amount over 1600 rated players, probably higher now this is an old number. The highest ranked women I know of is Judit Polgár and I would love to go into some background on here. Maybe on my YT channel one day.

But yea, to be honest, if I was to start rising very quickly in the ranks "just saying" the sky is the limit simply because I'm a male. Chess skill has nothing to do with it, or else if it did there plainly would be more women in the top ranks than they are, so obviously there is some invisible barrier.

Good advice. You yourself should have followed it, and you wouldn't be in this predicament. If only you took 10 minutes to google what a chess GM is and how hard it is to reach it...

Well, that ship has sailed.

It seems Andrea Botez does not have ambitions to be a GM and you no longer have such ambitions either.

But if you were both trying, going by statistics and assuming the correlations are causal, Andrea would be more likely to get there because she's much younger and has a higher starting Elo. This has a much larger effect than sex does.

Of course, the correlations may not neccesarily be causal (although I would be astonished if starting elo isn't).

I know perfectly well how hard it is and have mentioned this over 200 post ago. I also covered the whole NOT being able to reach GM in 6 months also "and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with skill, being able to, etc. It has to do with not enough rated games to reach GM within 6 months, not even a year, and that's great for making money which is what the people in charge of chess are only out to do. It's the Boeing effect. Make money for the shareholders at ALL cost. Even lives if it needs be and for Boeing it needed to be.

Dude you should probably just stop posting because everyone understands that you don't like me and everyone gets your view of me so it's just narcissism on your part to input your opinions when you're not even in the discussion. Way to put yourself at center and get involved. Yes if it makes you feel better and more important we know you're following the thread and want your opinion to be heard. I mean I am literally that important to take this amount of time in your life. Do you know how many others just made a few negative post, insults, and moved on? A lot, but that's NOT you. You're one of those who lacked attention as a child, or had too much attention as a child "one of the two", and feel you need to input your thoughts into every threat to let everyone know you're still here.

Well glad I can make your day. Soon though I'll be absent again for 4-6 months and you'll have to find some other thread to feel important in. I guess their's not a lot to do in Hungary!

All that nonsense that you wrote here shows perfectly well that you have no idea how hard it is.

It has everything to do with skill.

The skill required is so extremely above your skill level that it would take 5 or more years of very hard work for an very dedicated, very talented person. Saying that you can do it in one tenth of that time is just extreme ignorance on your part.

Or (more likely) just trolling.

OMG. Can you really be this obtuse? You seriously think you have an advantage in chess over Andrea Botez because you are a male? It isn't self evident to you that the reason women, as a group, tend to perform less well than males is that they tend not to take up the game in as great of numbers as males? You say you are going to live OTB events in Las Vegas. Haven't you noticed what sausage fest live chess events are? You just can't help making a fool of yourself.
