What is your Morphy Number, and from whom did you inherit it?

ah sorry forgot about that

Engines are going to undercut the whole point of "Player numbers".

If a 4 plays an engine, then the whole world is a 6.

"You got your MN from Rubinsteins son?"
++ Yes. That makes me MN = 4. I had white and played the Italian opening. I did not dare play the Evans Gambit against him, so I played 4 c3. He chose the Euwe variation 4...Qe7. We had a long positional game and got into an endgame. He offered me a draw and I declined. Then I went on to lose.

Poof goes my Morphy number.

I should have a 7. Hikaru's MN is 4, and my Hikaru number is 3.

according to reddit hikarus morphy number is five, which means mine would be 7

same

Excluding engines my hikaru number is 5

I played @hapaxleg, who played @Neurosurgeon6, who played @SelfishEye, who played @ChessMeister8745, who played @Hikaru

On WIKIPEDIA it states that hikaru is a 4.

I would be happier if we DON'T count bots or engines, because if we DO count them, then everyone in the WORLD will be a 6.

Rozman? He's a 5, same as me.

Check the Wikipedia.
