Computer2-MEDIUM is the biggest troll on chess.com

Check out this game, particularly moves 58-79, and judge for yourself.

It certainly played with you after it had you beat, didn't it?

You are allowed to resign, you know.

Well, it seems like the computer doesn't know how to checkmate with K+Q vs K, so I was going for a 50-move draw before my time ran out.

On another note, I just played another trollish game against the computer, definitely one of my wildest games ever. I was tired, the computer was in a charitable mood, and this was the result:

No. YOU are the biggest troll on chess.com. 

I was. These days I'm not active enough to be considered for that title. But thanks for the compliment!

No worries! 

Don't worry, pdela has replaced you...

Nope. Actually, Computer1-EASY is the biggest troll. Check out this game:

Good Troll!

It's well known that chess engines are NOT good at endgames.

That's why we use tablebases for endgames.

That's true, but I still don't understand why the computer always promotes its pawns at the last minute possible (or why, in MSC's game, it decided to promote to a bunch of bishops for no particular reason). It's as if the programmers intentionally programmed it that way - maybe as a joke?

Obviously. It's a pretty lame computer.

IN order for you to have a chance to beat a computer, I thas to intentionally make mistakes. Perhaps this is what's going on with something like that.

Yeah, Computer1-EASY does a lot of weird things:

• It always sacs its knights for pawns, rooks for knights and bishops, and queens for knights and bishops (I've seen it move its rook directly where you could take it with your bishop, so that when it takes back, it gets a nice pawn structure)
• It values its pawns greatly and is always protective of them, sometimes willing to give up a rook to keep a couple of pawns
• It never promotes its pawns until it has to (which often means waiting until the 50th move of the fifty move rule), and it often promotes to bishops if it can, after which (on the 49th move of the fifty move rule) it always purposely drops the pieces it promotes 
• When it sacs, it often plays "hope chess" - for example, if you're white in the opening with queen on d1 and pawn on d4, it might play Nb4, then you play c3, then it plays Nxd4 in the hopes that you do Qxd4, in which case it wins the queen with Nc2+
• It often plays openings that are effective against beginners, such as h4-h5-h6, scholar's mate, and fried liver attack
• If you offer it a draw, it never accepts unless it has only a couple pawns remaining, even if you're up a queen and rook, or you're threatening mate in one; similarly, it likes to offer draws when it's losing

Here's a troll game by Comp3-HARD:

It starts off playing beautifully, then on move 28 decides that it wants to get rid of its minor pieces ASAP. Then, after I blunder in the endgame, it offers me a draw in a better position.

I've had multiple experiences against Comp2 (and a few against Comp1) where I'm ahead by a ton of material, but end up losing because I can't stop the computer's connected passed pawns. So in this game I wanted to do everything I could to prevent the same thing from happening again, even if it meant sacrificing a bit of material - because I could afford it. In the end the strategy worked - I had a winning endgame until I blundered by rook.

Try not to spend so many moves taking pawns.  Use your stronger pieces to direct an attack on the king.  Also try not to grant your opponent counterplay!

This made me laugh, thanks!

Nope. ChessPsych0 is a bigger troll

Who?

A NM who is a complete troll and isn't afraid to publicize it  he's really funny though I like him
