5 years is a long time, and i was also kinda thinking of it as an elder, point wise, I'm sure you would respect a 20 year old grandmaster more then a 50 year old chess player who's lost more games then most people play in a lifetime.

RahimK should know better then. This is all really quite silly, and cmsmaster at least has the excuse of youth, actually so does RahimK from where I'm looking (I'm 35 🙁) but even so, if you want respect act your age.

Compare my highest rating to his - not that big of a difference.

I have read this entire thread, and maybe I missed something, but what does this match solve? Rahim says he wants to play Cms to shut him, but clearly nothing is gonna shut him up, that's what makes him hilarious. Rahim has 300 points on Cms, and has forced to him to play probably one of the crappiest time controls on RHP, which apparently cms doesn't really have time for, which I don't blame him given what stage of his schooling he's in. This is dumb. That said, I would like to see Cmsmaster destroy RahimK and make him look stupid.

Actually RahimK doesn't really have 300 points on cmsMaster as cmsMaster did get a peak rating of 1725, and since he's said he's been busy recently that provides a sufficient explanation as to why his rating has dropped off, but you can imagine that he'll be putting a fair amount of effort into this one. RahimK's peak rating here is 1825 and as his CFC rating is 1880 (at least according to his profile) so I don't see any reason to assume that it'll increase by more than another 100 points or so. This means the difference in effective playing strength is more like 100-200.

I do agree with you that this solves nothing - especially if the result is a draw.

If its a draw, CMS still owns ther bragging rights --- seeing as Rahim is sooooooo confident of victory.

cms is also playing black, although outside the highest levels that can be an advantage: Game 3343363
