"none of your arguments or claims appear on any chess media"
++ Many grandmasters have stated Chess is a draw: Steinitz, Lasker, Capablanca, Fischer, Kasparov, Kramnik, Nakamura, Carlsen.
Sveshnikov has stated weakly solving Chess is possible in 5 years and he has outlined the method: good assistants and modern computers, from the opening to a technical endgame.
@8310
"a tempo is an advantage"
++ It is, but not enough to win.
White can afford to lose 2 tempi, black can only afford to lose 1 tempo.
In the initial position white has 19 moves that draw and 1 move that loses.
To each of those black has less than 19 moves that draw and more than 1 that loses.

none of them said that. none of them said that it was proven that chess was a draw.
"1 e3 e5 2 e4"
im sorry. i dont think you have reading comprehension.
@tygxc please tell me what I explained how black would respond to e3.
"1 e3 e5 2 e4"
im sorry. i dont think you have reading comprehension.
It's pretty clear. tygxc is quite right. Elroch is wrong thinking this is an "all moves" situation. As I pointed out, only one move has to be lost at one point in the game an he seemed to disagree.
i dont think u understand the context.
remember the chomp strategy stealing argument u saw?
tygxc is falsely trying to apply that to chess.
"1 e3 e5 2 e4"
im sorry. i dont think you have reading comprehension.
@tygxc please tell me what I explained how black would respond to e3.
You're thinking e6
correct!
"If 1 Nf3 Nf6 were a symmetrical position black win, then 2 Ng1 Ng8 3 Nf3 Nf6 4 Ng1 Ng8 is a draw and hence not a symmetrical position black win."
black doesnt have to do 2... Ng8.
your strategy stealing claim is that white can lose a tempo into any relevant position. i am demonstrating how that isnt the case. I dont need to give the black response to force a win, i just need to give a black response to avoid gaining a tempo.
It isn't the point. If e4 e5 were a win for black, white wouldn't open 1. e4. Elroch isn't entirely wrong if he assumes that "any" opening move loses for white, I mean regarding the logic of such a ridiculous scenario. But if you believe that, you'll believe stuff like 1. e4 e5 2. Ba6 may not lose for white and other rather ridiculous things. It is not possible that chess is a game where the player with the opening move is zugzwanged. It doesn't need a proof, since a proof is impossible. Much more complex than Euler's Theory, which is intuitively correct.
im not speaking in terms of sun is not made of eggs truth/proof, remember. goldbach's conjecture holds for integers up to at least 10 ^18, but we dont know for sure whether it holds for all.
tygxc, you claim at some point, after N amount of moves, that white can lose a tempo.
during those same N amount of moves, black can also lose a tempo.
so theres a net change of zero.
by the way, I noticed you made the mistake of mentioning moving a knight back and forth.
thats 2 tempo. not one.
We can go by experience. If chess were a forced win for black, then the game of chess would be a move losing game and would very much completely depend on the ability of players to lose moves. The opposite is the truth. We know that chess is a move game gaining game, where the player who can gain the biggest advantage in time often wins. Time is a chess term not related to the clock but related to development and the number of moves needed to land a mortal blow.
oh yeah for sure. remember when i said stuff on conditional probability with regards to my opinion on chess's outcome? this is what I meant.
however, tygxc is claiming absolute proof of position, not sun is not made of eggs proof.

OK - they do work; they just give the wrong answers. I understand now.

Chess is a complex game with billions of different moves thats why even Magnus isn t playing like a computer
