Chess will never be solved, here's why

Ironically, you don't understand the subject matter and you don't have the logical ability to make anything of it if you did, although perhaps not understanding the subject and not having logical ability are not unrelated.

I think it is poor terminolgy, yes. Are you featuring high on the list of "The Confused"? Seems so.

I completely disagree with Elroch, by the way. You don't have to look at obviously bad moves. That should be fairly obvious. What is necessary is to develop better algorithms. In my opinion, if I disagree with Elroch then he is 85% to 90% likely to be wrong; therefore there's a confidence factor of 85% to 90% but in reality it's about 100%.

FOREWORD

Irrespective of the tortuously inept output of some poor souls here, of which more may be said later, the real situation is given here.

There are two camps. One camp is led by someone whose ego is the size of Mt Everest, without an intellect to match. It consists of the belief that chess theory, expressed mathematically, will solve all and is indeed the only way forward. This rests on the hare-brained idea that chess will be solved mathematically, therefore we can guess what the result will be. This must be kept secret from those approaching the subject with any degree of honesty, which is why I'm pointing it out. All we are likely to see is a very dense smokescreen.

The leader of the cult of mathematics has been known to claim that there is no way that solving chess can be regarded as a scientific project. This, of course, may not be part of the doctrine, except inasmuch as it may be pretended as true, from time to time, in the cause of expedience: for instance, when he's losing or has lost an argument. He loses arguments so frequently that "special methods" have been built into the received doctrine of the cult, in order to deflect outsiders from discerning that he is fairly useless at debate.

Since chess exists as an entity, albeit one constructed by humans; but since it hasn't been solved; the only way forward is to approach it scientifically. That means it's necessary to devise tests to try to discern what should be the result of best play (or good play). At first, there are no "shoulds" in science. It is only when scientific investigation proceeds sufficiently that definite correlations are discerned, which may be interpreted as "cause and effect on the chessboard", that a good scientist will adopt the "should" approach, in that s/he is testing theory, which in the first case is created as hypothesis. If and only if (iff) the results are such that they support the theory, can we say that they have occurred as they "should" have done. It other words, the results support the emergent theory in that they conform to those results that the theory would predict.

EPILOGUE

I wrote the above for a bit of fun. It goes without saying that there are several people here who won't be able to understand it because they don't have the intellectual equipment to do so. Therefore they will attempt to portray it as nonsense. That is for two reasons. They are obviously unintelligent, since if that were not true, they would be happy to concur with a pretty good bit of writing which points out some truths rather accurately. But also, they don't want other people to understand it because then, those people would change their minds about who is right in this little discussion.

They would realise that, despite the occasional mistake, tygxc is correct in the large picture and his detractors are completely wrong and are merely ego-driven. Thankyou.

Since Elroch nor many others here cannot follow me when I make an abstract argument, I don't think that can be used to criticise tygxc!

My dreck is correct.

Horrible, American word, though. In this context, I am superior to you because I have a lot more brain-power than you. A LOT more, and in this context, that's what counts.

What's an M prime??

Ooh we ARE getting noisy! Telling other people what they can do and can't do, while you yourself claim to be able to post what you want when and where you want. You've also made a very convincing argument that you're not completely crazy, somewhere, haven't you? Would you remind me of it?

You can continue to post what you wish and how you wish and you can continue to make a fool of yourself if you so wish, dear.

Are you just another member of the rank and file? Doesn't sound like it, does it? Continue to make a fool of yourself if you so desire by projecting your craziness onto others. Funny how you latched onto the "corrupt mods" line, wasn't it? Strange how you tell others, in bold blue ink, what they can and cannot do and how they are "just another member". Sounds like you don't see yourself as that, doesn't it?

Ooh we ARE getting noisy! Telling other people what they can do and can't do, while you yourself claim to be able to post what you want when and where you want. i believe you need to look at your postsYou've also made a very convincing argument that you're not completely crazy, you call everyone here crazy or a troll your arguments don't have any logical points f you just accuse everyone of the same thing somewhere, haven't you?no he's just ignoring your insults and calling you delusional  Would you remind me of it?why does he need to ?

I don't like telling people they're making a fool of themselvesyou say that every other post if you don't like it just ignore them 😑 but your perceptions are in no way reliable and I'd rather have no conact with you. I don't want to tell you in greater detail what I think of you so give it a rest.yes they obviously troll you but then again you so insult them ekroch and dio blocking everyone is a bit silly though 

The only reason it gives the perception of txgcx not winning is cause you insult the smithereens out of everyone actually it seemed like we were making a tiny bit of progress when you weren't commenting instead of whining about other people's problems mostly because we could actually talk about the subject I also like how mega completely ignores you

OK you've proven who you are.if you think you have proven something you are mistaken  I was initially wrong about who you are but I knew itwas someonefamiliar. You're the fourth cartel member who comes and goes .you mean I'm an alt ?🤦

Your bias and dishonesty is now visible and nothing you write can be trusted. Goodbye.

OK you've proven who you are. I was initially wrong about who you are but I knew it was someone familiar. You're the fourth troll cartel member who comes and goes. Your bias, unpleasant nature and dishonesty is now clearly visible and nothing you write can be trusted. I never trusted you one bit and I was right. Goodbye.

Well tell me this. After you start your arguments, why do you get more and more visibly upset the further they go on and then start to deliberately reverse realities, as you are doing in this post? If you can't handle the arguments you deliberately cause, emotionally, why do you start them constantly, if you are indeed perfectly sane? What am I missing? Is it some Kudos thing?

Of course it isn't against me personally because I know it's been going on irrespective of who it is. It's most likely insecurity makes you and a small number of people attack others. I hadn't visited this thread for a good few weeks and when i looked, a couple of weeks ago, there you all were bullying tygxc. It there was someone with mental impairment it seems you would bully them. I found it distasteful and i objected to it as any decent person would and Lo! and Behold! I was elevated to crackpot status and considered a fair target. A psychiatrist would have interesting things to say. And elroch gets a lot of things wrong, which is something you don't wish to accept.

I can tell when you're upset. Your inventions become more extreme and there's a kind of manic quality. There's no point you commenting on "brilliance". You're a good rhetorician and a passable computer expert. I'm not interested in what "posters from all walks of life" think unless I respect them or like them, which usually come together and which actually covers most people on this site.

Some of the people I respect are most of the people who are on that thread combatting what they call "climate alarmists". Patriot Games especially and she sees in you what I see. Ghostess but also a number of people stand out. Most do not care to involve themselves with malicious people. And in general good people all over are what I like. I admire toleration and also the willingness to stand up for oneself. Not things you admire at all.
