Here's the full set, although there could be a few others among the team who are genuine no-hopers:
User 719206 Magical Pink Pony: July 2, until July 31
User 711913 HelloKitty666: Feb 23, until July 26 (not entirely sure about her, but she's in the games list a LOT)
User 719918 CodPiece: July 20, until July 26

Those three players are all trying to be be checkmated in two moves if you look at their ratings.

The Point is that probably some Joker tried to reach an extreme Rating by Setting up accounts to Play each other to two move games.... Maybe you see the whole bunch banned in some time.

They're all using the same opening playing each other, it's one of those ones that children use for a quick checkmate (maybe called Fools Mate or somesuch, I can't remember). I think one was here ahead of the others playing normal opponents, and got drawn into the net of the two ratings-fraudsters somehow.

Why not, Stees? Our site forums already offer them. [+] & [-] = [+] or [¿] cool,

That reminds me of my math teacher: We take an epsilon which is very small, so small it becomes negative on division 😀

Sheldon, I think you should have gotten into medicine instead of chemistry because you have a terrible time letting threads die in peace..."clear"...zap..."again...clear"...zap. "it's no good Sheldon they're gone". "No we have to keep trying....clear"...zap.

Ponderable, how would you construct a meaningful formula for an RHP Member's Forum Posting Rating?

(a) Year Joined + [Thumbs Up] +/- [Thumbs Down] = (b) - Monthly Thread Kills = (c) ..................?
