They could both be GMs perhaps. But making 1,000,000 moves on RHP is understandably more important.

What would be hilarious is if someone got the million moves by rigging up a bot to start as many games as possible and play the first legal move it finds in each game.

Having hundreds of games [b]must
effect their concentration to some extent, certainly.
But I know from first hand experience that Zorro is a decent player, I've had some good scraps with him (strangely i've never played Marko).
These guys will just be blitzing, spending no more th ...[text shortened]... around 100-200 points.

... But all that aside, they have a race on!

So's mine - according to his profile Zorro was born in 1947 which makes him 66 or 67 and presumably retired. Based on the picture that he used to have up Marko is much younger and presumably still has to work for a living. So Zorro has more scope to do this.

If Marko Krale has paid $39.95/yr for 11 years he has made about 2,205 moves per dollar! By that measure ZorroTheFox has made 2,406 moves per dollar!

I hope Zorro has the sense for the dramatic when he gets close to
the millionth move and set up a mate in one and saves it up.
The millinth move should be a checkmate.

Marko 974000 moves
zorro 969000 moves

honus. 887000

myself. 12000

We have 12 black stars today, no one of them has more than 1700 of RHP elo rating

but it seems could be more people at the end of this month

They are going to collapse before the 1000000 moves

This month zorro has made 7000 moves in just 15 days (marko just a shy 4700)

Maybe he or she wants to be the 1.000.000 dollars baby

Marko crosses over 980,000 in the next few hours; Zorro is under 5000 behind. With only 20,000 moves to go, Marko will cross the line in about seven weeks (mid-Oct) at current rate of progress. But Zorro is moving faster. She (?) will cross the line by mid-October too.

It's very very close!

It wont take Marko 7 weeks to knock off 20,000 moves. These fellows knock off 15,000 per month, so on that basis, the millionth move will be made easily by the end of September.

Marko's on holiday! How could he at a time like this? Hasn't moved for four days!! Meanwhile Zorro has surged to within 1500 moves
