I dont know if i should laugh or cry.

i agree, but online ratings don't matter much. Your rating is no better.

So if somebody isn't good at basketball are they not allowed to have an opinion as to how basketball players rank in relation to one another?

so you think Magnus is not a strong player...lol

 

he's world number 1, highest rated player of all time and world champion

Correct, it can only be deduced from what I wrote in my previous post that I believe Magnus is not very good at the game of chess.  Can't get anything by you it seems, but I stand by it.

Uhm guys, wake up! He is talking about the 11the game, which is the first game that never has been played. He is not serious at all. You should laugh and not refer to his rating. Did you all really think that I was seriously talking about the Hastings chess tournament of 1066?

It is like saying that you are really curious how the current reelected president will do in his third tenure as president of the United States. (Impossible by law.)

It's only funny if it's unintentional...and where is the evidence to suggest that it is a joke?  It seems not at all unlikely that he is as stupid as he seems.   My guess is that he is just an idiot, and so there is nothing wrong with pointing out just how stupid his query is.

@Porthishead93: The 11th game and intentional??? Of course he knew what he was writing.

I repeat: the 11th game is the evidence. :-)

Try to make a better guess and stop using words that might have a boomerang effect on yourself. Everything is wrong with your guess. It is a long time ago that I read that level of stubbornness. Maybe describes unwillingness your attitude better. I don't think there is a word in English that is able to describe my bafflement when reading your comment. :-)

Seems like it was a pretty obvious troll.  "my analyses" "11th game"  Clearly it worked.

Carlsen is mediocre. I am going to take game 11 of the world championship as an example. Hope you enjoy my analyses. He played against Anand obviously.  He may have won that game, but he failed to find the right moves. Seems during the opening, Carlsen was full of memorization, the moves wasn't his own. On move 7, anand went out of opening book just to try and confuse him, this is supposed to be chess? On move 20. Carlsen failed to see Rook takes g4. a move I am sure that Fischer would of saw.

 

So is he using bad spelling and grammar to troll as well?  Until he writes another thread and proves he knows how to spell, I'll remain convinced he's an idiot and, at least in this instance, not necessarily a troll.

Unwillingness, narrowmindedness and shouting by using bigger letters. Impressive attitude. Do you know where he is coming from? What is the native language of chess19788? Let's say he is Chinese, because that is the country with the biggest number of people: how good is his English in comparison to your Chinese? Take a look at 'of saw'. Would you expect that from someone for who English is his native language? His English might be very good considering the language he is used to talk on a daily basis.

Okay...so first thing, the format of my last post was an error.  Somehow my comments got inside the quote box, which created this kind of hamhanded look...whatever, honest mistake.

Secondly, when I first looked at the post, I could have sworn it said he was USA.  Tongue Out  Another mistake, entirely my fault...Loek, your point is valid. 

However, I still believe this is not a troll post.  Somehow, the little details make it seem like he truly believed what he was saying.  Mentioning Rg4 and saying he thought Fischer would have seen it seems like something a Fischer fanboy would say when trying to put him above another player, instead of a prankster.

The OP stated,"He may have won that game ,but he failed to find the right moves".

Anyone else find something odd about that statement?

I do not think this post is a troll post. Mentioning the OP's mention of the specific move Rg4 in a game which never occurred seems like something someone who believes in the sincerity of the original post would say when trying to assert the legitimacy of the thread.

 This is a troll thread....

I don't know; the OP didn't join this week and has played some chess. This is his first and only post since he joined. He doesn't fit the standard profile of a troll.

I don't fit the profile either, so that proves nothing.

Agh, I've been proved wrong!  He IS a troll!!!

He just posted again, and there's no way he could be so stupid twice...

His new thread here: http://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/rip-morgan-freeman.

So touche everyone who called him a troll, you were right, I was wrong...joke's on me.

The OP just closed his account;perhaps it was JohnClairlively or bean_Fischer in disguise.The Op must be waiting under a bridge for some passing goats.

Respect to Mandela but that is a hilarious thread title.
