@@pob-4810 And I work for google, so I know your mother's maiden name. Hahahaha. Have you ever worked anywhere? I You sound like a 14 year old. "Don't comment if you... blah blah blah" No one who actually works there would admit to knowing the identity of someone who wants to stay anonymous. That would mean that they don't care about privacy concerns for their top players. You'd be fired for this if you had a job.

[@apemonekeyman]

Rajma Chawal I definitely don’t think it’s an automated process . If that was the case there would be 1000s if not 10s of 1000s of people trying to scam chess.com into a free diamond membership. It’s either that hiraku genuinely doesn’t know who it is and can’t be bothered to check atm or he knows who it is and is just keeping the whole “mystery GM” going (it’s great for views!) I’m leaning towards the latter as you see in the vid he immediately puts down any suggestions from viewers as to who it may be without hesitation multiple times. Definitely fishy. And chess.com staff makes chess.com so I’m sure he’s privy to the knowledge as to who it may be . Especially as he’s a valuable asset to their team . And to be fair @poboy fresh didn’t actually state who the member is so he’d probably be in a job still (if he did in fact have one ) lol

[@Exodust145]

@@apemonekeyman Maybe it can't be an automated process. But I kind of doubt that anyone in the whole company is privy to that knowledge. It might be that only a small team is allowed access. Which is much more believable. Chess.com must have 100s of employees. It would be a questionable practice to do this. Unless, of course, they don't really care about anonymity.

1909 on lichess is still shit. Playing online you will not even achieve the lowest norm possible. You need to learn a ton of theory.. Half of the moves Naka plays are theory..he talks about it like he knew easily where,why and how you should move the piece but he studied his whole life + the high IQ and the result you see today.

[@nexxogen]

@67 Hannibal Funny how you completely misunderstand my point and then call me dumb. Do you always just insult people who disagree with you on most trivial things? Who said I don't know how to manipulate time? I simply said that if I win a losing game on time, I'm not happy about it nor satisfied, let alone ecstatic and that I don't understand why Hikaru is. Now, someone who's, say.... not dumb... would understand that without me having to explain it. P.S. Bro, you're not going to tell me what to do, thank you very much.

[@nexxogen]

@67 Hannibal You understand that throwing insults at people for no reason just makes you look like a total douche, right? Especially when you're liking your own comments on top of that. I have seen COUNTLESS examples of people winning online chess games by making dumb moves fast. I have also seen super grandmasters like Peter Svidler who ARE NOT ecstatic when they win on time. So please spare me your lectures on chess. Based on how you talk, I'd be willing to bet that I'm better at it than you. Btw, if you don't care about my "drama" (I guess that's how you call "having an opinion" in your village), then why are you wasting your time responding to it? Apparently, you care about what I'm saying much more than I care about Hikaru. People who don't care about stuff, don't bother engaging with it.

[@nexxogen]

​@67 Hannibal Yeah, everyone's different. What does that prove exactly? Everyone's different, so being decent or a douchebag is all the same? Also bro, I'm not sure if you're aware, but this is the KZbin comment section. It is MEANT for people to chime in with their opinions. There are countless comments on KZbin that I don't care about. And you know what I do with those? I ignore them. I don't go telling them that their opinions don't matter, because that would prove that they matter enough for me to respond to them, don't you think? It is douchy to be ecstatic when you win a completely lost position on time. It absolutely is. I never said you should not be happy, but being happier when you flag someone while having a completely lost position than when you beat them over the board is just a douchy. Especially when people win like that and then start taunting their opponent, that is just piece of shit behavior. People who aren't douchebags usually just go: "Well I didn't deserve that, but a win is a win." I have also seen very old Naka clips from other chess websites where he actually disconnected from games rather than resigning them. So this perfectly fits into what I'm talking about. And I don't have to be on Nakamura's level to be aware of this, because this is about what you are like as a person and not about how good you are at chess. And very strong chess players are usually much more decent and have much better manners than low rated ones, which makes this even more surprising to me. Kind of like this exchange of ours, where I'm talking to you in a decent way, but you keep throwing insults at me.
