What is up with 'Anonymous' writers at Chessbase

Post by AdminX »

I was looking at 'Sac, sac,... mate!' over on Chessbase: https://en.chessbase.com/post/sac-sac-mate-2

I could not help but notice the writer did not want their name mentioned or they forgot to give them credit.

I also could not help but notice that they now put "Ceres (Leela)" :lol: , They never put 'Fat Fritz (Leela)' or 'Fat Fritz 2 (Stockfish).

Its clearly not forgetting or they would also not have written "By Chessbase".

Does it sound like it was written by one of the usual suspects?

@Collingwoopd, It does to me. After posting this I learned a little more about the source game.
