This is a scam. Ask the guy to show his OTB credentials and an ID, and see what happens.

pfren nicknamed it Applied Random Bullshit.
It's a phony "system" to win chess by someone who probably has a three-digit OTB rating.

I tried a match game against A.R.B. (where I was operating the engine) and you can see what happened (after he delayed the started of the game for months and decided to make it a "correspondence style" game, instead of a live one):

(he chose Fritz because he said that that he had already defeated all of the other much better engines..., so he saw no point in playing them...)

Actually 10... Nd7 was always the top choice of Komodo 8, but who knows knows why is that relevant to anything, it wouldn´t chose such horrible opening in the first place.

Thanks. I thought it would be something like this.
I remembered some other thing, in one of those threads a guy made an "engine correlation analysis" using 3 engines in two A.R.B. games, he got that A.R.B. have more coincidences with the engine... than the engine.

Somebody had already analyzed the game...
And of course the way of "defeating" the engine, is by making it play moves that it wouldn´t play in the first place.
An example: 25... Bd6?!

Stockfish never had (at any point of the analysis) 25... Bd6 as its first choice.
And the Stockfish 5 used by Buckeye also showed the same result, Stockfish wants to play 25... f5.
Only paszczaks use the A.R.B. System.
That's the troll world for you.

Back already? When do you go back to school and stop bothering the adults?
Edit: Wow, that was super fast mods.
Anyone want to guess his next name?
I'm guessing ChessTruthSeeker
What actually is the A.R.B. Chess System? (Where can I find a full information about it? Is it reliable?)
