| Whitehat1963: What the heck is this thing (assuming a mythical computer program) that is supposedly rated 3418 but has no games listed? Perhaps someone has hacked into your system, <chessgames.com>. |

| norami: It's actually God! God is rated 3418. A top grandmaster will occasionally play perfectly and draw God, so His rating is not infinite. |

| dakgootje: Scorpion83 is the username of GM Varuzhan Akobian on ICC. Since his blitz rating on the time of writing is 3362 (with best ever of 3565) I think it's safe to assume by accident one of his online blitz games was submitted. Either that or God speaks in 1337-tongue... which wouldn't be too extraordinary since he is supposed to be all-knowing and thus able to speak all languages. Or it's the Holy Spirit. Makes you wonder whether the prophets that were able to speak in foreign tongues due to the Holy Spirit would have used 1337-speak as well, obviously with the compulsory amount of rofl's and omgwtfbbq's included. |

| dakgootje: <Thrajin: <dakgootje>, I find the thought of the apostle Paul telling me to "GTFO!" quite hilarious!> haha, to visualize that is awesome! Just have to wonder whether no one else has come up with such an idea for a comic or sketch yet. |

| ChessEscudero: THIS CAN VERY WELL BECOME another argument for the existence of god. A)Number of games in database: none
B)Years covered: none
C)Highest rating achieved in database: 3418
Therefore, God exists. |

| dakgootje: Disagreed. Aside from the point that we have to doubt whatever our senses give us as stimuli to know the outside world an sich, we have to doubt the internet as well. Since it isn't material in the general sense nor to be held at one single place, the idea of the internet is much more suitable for a place in the world of ideas. The very existence of this world has been questioned by numerous philosophers so at best we could state by this interaction that we currently live in a shared dream. Since Gods of any kind often speak to their people in dreams and there is this obscure part of information about 3418, it would be most logical to assume this is the year the world will end. Therefore the only thing left to do is decide on which calender. The Berber calender is most nearby, currently in the year 2959. Worst care scenario therefore is that we have roughly 450 years still to go. Nothing to worry about. |

In my opinion, this "ghost page" is a prank, put on by <chessgames.com> in observance of Halloween. |

| dakgootje: Yes I know <SamAtoms1980>. I don't think they'd put this up as prank page though due to a couple of reasons. It was put up too early, the name has no obvious halloween-connection and if they did they would have had it appear on the recent kibitzing for there is little fun in a prank if none notices it. Could be in theory that player-pages without games do not show up there per definition for instance, but I don't know really. |

| SamAtoms1980: <dakgootje: It was put up too early,> Not nearly as early as companies start putting out commercials for Halloween stuff.... :-| <the name has no obvious halloween-connection> Scorpions don't scare you? Really? I know if I were ever to see a live scorpion, it would scare the #$%& out of me..... :-B <and if they did they would have had it appear on the recent kibitzing for there is little fun in a prank if none notices it.> Well, judging by this page, it is a far cry from "none" who have noticed this :-D Plus, it DOES appear if you go into the "more kibitzing..." at the bottom of the list. I think, for this week at least, it will be kept mysterious, much like Halloween things tend to be.... :-O |
