Just for the records: Did curtains/Shahade and Durr play their match on a chess server or real-life over the board?

Nice job raptor, sick prop.

I'm curious tho, why didn't you get Samo to play for you?

Out of 100 random club players, I would probably beat only around 20, but I still quite sure I would beat Curtains if he would play without a rook (my brother is about that level and I would beat him), but I think that I would be a favourite against Durrrr with a rook less, with a knight less I would crush him. The big difference is really between club players and sunday players, the best sunday players that beat all their friends and relatives etc. usually get crushed when they join a club, you don't remove all your easily exploitable mistakes until you regularily play people that know how to exploit them.
