“My greatest wish is that rather it will be best solution ifThe trollers, plus all dishonest admins, mods etc. sureWho support these fake accounts; to get an importantPunishment by majority of chess community, such asMake boycott via NOT sharing on non-serious sources!For what? Just for our Computer Chess progress as well”
“Strong men those who fight for freedom, who demand their rights,Being always silence, taking it so easy..is a destiny of weak people,And such 'weak personalities' are doomed to lose, even to perish...”
“When the water becomes clarify the impurities are gone.At the foundation are seen the beautiful, shining stones.Therefore instead of swampy, choose clean flowing water.And God forbid! A drowning man will clutch at a straw.”
“People who feel, share the pain of others are called humans,And on the contrary, they are called animals. But I admit too,The more I get to know people, the more I prefer to be alone."
“In my country, you cannot even become a Shepherd without a diploma,But unfortunately everyone in chess, can do whatever he wants, right?However, against 'Double Standards', I hope 'one' day (not for my side,Now is too late..actually I kindly request 'SCCT' to be not mentioned..)I refer for all other good sources, who they still being underestimated..To be available a great, fair rule in chess, who will defend the right ofAll good and trusted tournament directors, testers, plus book authors,Because without us..the eng programmers would not exists as well!If Eng programmers have GPL license, what about TD/Book license?Praising just Western sources lead to nowhere, exception dead end.”
“Anyway, it's in our nature because we are the people who are wronged,And thank God, we are not weak either... We know how to show respect,To thank to all kind people or when necessary to congratulate as well.”
“A professional, real expert never prefers double standards.
But on the contrary is destiny of amateur, dishonest people.”“A real and serious tester prefers strong opening lines forever!Using weak openings is destiny of unbalanced, hopeless people.”
“There is no greater fault than preferring the weak openings,Where the strong openings play as golden key to gain points”
“It's pointless, if using just weak openings for Whites or Blacks,Since chess is a game for two sides, besides the weak lines areNot useful for majority, at least for the serious chess players.”
“Via weak lines for determining eng strength is needed thousandsOf games (per player,) otherwise the error margin can be too high,But via strong openings, minus plus one thousand games enough.”
“The more I learn about engines, databases, the more I know that:The powerful move is not in date or in size, but in the correct line”
“Moreover, the more I learn about NNUE engines, the more I see:They are getting closer in similarity, in playing styles to each other”
“The pessimist focuses on bad games; the optimist on good games;But all greatest games of all-time have been played by optimists.”
“If you don't know past, it's not the end, learn from it, but if not:You are a simple pawn that you don't know it's a piece of chess.”
“Learn from yesterday's mistakes while preparing for tomorrow,But never give up, sooner or later you will succeed it.”
“Never underestimate or overestimate your chess opponents,Just learn, look for better moves, make plan for a win, attack,And then no doubt that you can defeat them effortlessly.”
“We can not undo the bad move, but we can learn from it.”
“The best organized tour is what people say you can not do.”
“To see a win (if playing under optimal cond.) by Top engines:It's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and what's point ofUsing BIG umbrella, if almost no any drop rain on the horizon.”
“Be original, be creative, you can not be on Top by work of others”
“No One can stay always Number One but Fun: it may stay alwaysAlive in our life, actually all it's in our hands, just we have to take it,And if I've caused regarding all over, then how happy I'm as well.”
“If you are best of best in your profession,Plus if you are knowledgeable, skilled andSuccessful...then be sure of that as well:-You will be envied much, criticized, manyWill try to make difficult to do yours jobs.But no problem at all..due to Number OneNever lose, either he win, or LEARN."
“Computers changed, Engines changed, Tournaments changed, Only my LOVE to Computer Chess is NEVER changed.”
As final words,Enjoy and have fun with my sayings and activities !)
