Posts from To Vigo or not to Vigo? That is the question.

I'll post two games by Vigo, one with Alone in a tournament, and the other with SEM_56 in a league match. They were played around the same time. And it's funny that the castles are the same. It's even easier to compare.

Petya, do you think that only complete idiots have gathered here?
It says, "Thank you for the game, you played great, excellent pace." Who is this addressed to? Who is he saying "thank you for the game" to? He's praising his opponent for a great game, and you just pieced together phrases from two different places and started making fun of it! Don't do that, it doesn't suit you...

The statistics are ridiculous. Look at my game statistics in the season and in the tournament. About 40 percent in the first case and 100 in the second. So what? Maybe I was maphacking on Slagfest?
And for 1998-1999, I think I had about 55 percent in regular chess games and 100 in team games. So what? Maybe, fellow statisticians, I was maphacking my opponent's brain, or maybe I was disguising myself as Kasparov?

This trial is simply disgusting. When one person openly maphacks in front of everyone, he gets away with it. But the other is ready to be erased from the face of the Earth just for suspicion. And you know what? I know, and I won't be erased so easily!! In reality, those who lost, let's say, to Vitalik, are so confident in their own invincibility that they are ready to assume anything, except for one simple fact. In this particular game, he played better. They can't even imagine that, the disease of "megalomania" hasn't been canceled. So they start making up anything. Then they'll say that Vitalik hypnotized his opponents through Hamachi. And with their logic, this is a normal next step.

It's useless to try to silence me. I'm fed up.

In reality, those who simply lost to, say, Vitalik, are so confident in their own invincibility that they are ready to assume anything, except for one simple fact: in this particular game, he played better.

The thing is, there was one piece of evidence. A photo with a date, from the Phoenix meetup, where Vitalik was present, but Vigo wasn't, and on that day, Vigo had a game. It's extremely difficult to reconstruct this, very difficult. In principle, it would be possible to try to do it if we knew for sure that everyone who made the decision about Vigo, both here and on the Portal, would first offer official apologies after being presented with this photo, and then go and serve the punishment that was given to Vigo.

Thank you for such frankness. In fact, that's why we gathered here, to understand who "presumably" played under the nickname Vigo.

To be continued.

))))) Funny. Wasn't I making a valid point? The guy was accused of cheating, and one of the arguments was that he didn't immediately start defending himself and screaming like a stuck pig. I, by stating the basic principles of legal proceedings, wanted to convey that this argument was baseless. So, in your understanding, "making a valid point" means only the accusations against the guy, and the defense is not a valid point?)) And never mind, sort it out yourselves. You can delete this message too, I give you permission.

Too lazy to go into details, but the title of the topic is great.

I may not be in the loop here, but I'll allow myself to point out that you forgot about one thing:
