yo question to y'all. what would happen if I use stockfish during the openings so I can learn how to play them and stop using stockfish at the start of middlegame would it be considered cheating?

Dont do it, that is cheating, also those gm’s with those so called speedruns should be banned, people should play on their own level
Derek-C-Goodwin

i am greatly opposed to speedruns, as far as i can see they are damaging to peoples confidence to inflate the egos of a few. I I made an accound and only played noobs I think it would fall into fair play rules.

so if questions like these pop up we are all suppose to believe that players are not using engines, to "learn" any other part of the game ? close the thread already, it is bad for business

They’re not learning anything watching an engine destroy people. They’re not even using their brains.

Initially it was a simple question and I thought maybe it could stay open.

Since that's not the case, locking.
