Any estimation of Mean Girl's (32x4) 25 node ELO? 2500 Rapid ELO seems hard to believe.
Not a lot of players seem willing to engage in rated games, so that rating is based on a small sample size, Full on SF goes through it like a hot knife through butter, but humans struggle against it. I suspect that has something to do with the source material. It seems to play moves that are objectively worse, but harder for people to deal with.
Fat Titz by Stockfish, the engine with the bodaciously big net. Remember: size matters. If you want to learn more about this engine just google for "Fat Titz".

.35 million is not > 1 million.

Yea, that's what surprised me.
I played Mean Girl (32x4) vs Roce (1850 ELO on the CCRL 40/4 list) on an i5-4460.
Roce was 50-80 ELO stronger on 10+0.1s increments.
Leela 60-90 ELO stronger on 20+0.2s increments.

And even those 0.1s increments were a lot more than 25 nodes.
So either even very weak a/b engines can crush humans these days or Mean Girl has a very anti-human style.

I’d say it has a very human style, which is “anti-human,” as opposed to “inhuman.” I’ve gotten feedback from several players that they find playing against it makes them stronger. That’s very different from my experiences with ab engines, which develop bad anti-engine habits in my play.

To the best of my knowledge, the player who has played the most internet chess games under a single account is "A6648" on ICC, who has been playing under that name since 1996. As of right now, he has played 671,135 rated games on this account.

The previously mentioned "german11" on lichess is playing at a faster pace, though.

Well mean girl can beat stockfish7 (it’s not stockfish version 7) on lichess. That’s higher than IM at blitz and rapid time control.
