I supported Hans Nieman in this from the start.
Then...more and more has come out.
Let's put it in baseball terms. Gamescore. Easy, right? In chess, 100 is perfect, and the highest possible score.
There are a distressing number of games where Nieman scored exactly 100. Given the billions of possible moves, and the complexity of the game, the chances of throwing a perfect game (see what I did there?) are very, very, vanishingly low.
And yet, he has done this multiple times.
Playing a perfect chess game would be in baseball, pitching a perfect game, with 27 strikeouts, no balls, and not one foul ball. Just 81 called strikes, or swing and misses.
These games are out there, online, and being reviewed. I am beginning to turn against Nieman. Look up gothamchess, or Hikaru on YT.
Either way, this hasn't hurt the game..LOTS of interest now.
