SPR Apr 2021 5:07pm, 28 Apr 2021 34,058 posts	0 SPR Congrats Joe. Nice to have a win. Monsenb - daily games definitely make you risk averse. Blitz and rapid on the other hand. Group appeal is a non-starter. Has to be the person involved really. All we'd be saying is we don't think this person cheated which they probably get all the time. You'll need more than that to overturn it I'd have thought. Think if I was caught up in something like this I'd be sending links to videos I'd watched etc as part of my appeal.
BanjoBax Apr 2021 5:52pm, 28 Apr 2021 5,055 posts	0 BanjoBax If inconsistency was an algorithm cue I'd have been banned ages ago (perhaps I'm safe, as even at my best, they can't believe anyone cheating could be as bad as me ) Lots of opening courses now are based on traditional lines revamped based on computer analysis, how do they know your not following one of those? Rather than using an engine?
MisterTea Apr 2021 5:56pm, 28 Apr 2021 5,738 posts	0 MisterTea It can't be inconsistency as I have some games where I've managed high 90s having just struggled to get about 20 in the previous game

Joophy Apr 2021 7:20pm, 28 Apr 2021 383 posts	0 Joophy I've had 2 games in the last week with 99%+ accuracy. If it'd happened a few weeks ago I'd be really chuffed, now I'm just worried they'll think I was cheating! (I wasn't, opponent made early mistakes that I capitalised on based on analysis of previous games combined with having watched 6+ hours of chess YouTube every week for 2 months!)
JulesR Apr 2021 7:32pm, 28 Apr 2021 26,155 posts	0 JulesR Anyone fancy a game of 960? I’ve not played a full 960 game yet & the rating system is rurally separate to daily chess.
