Amidst the cheating controversy that, at the time of publishing, is still unfolding in the chess world between Hans Niemann, Magnus Carlsen and chess.com, I thought I’d try and see if “that” cheat device is actually possible. How easy is it to make? Can it actually be used to defeat high level players? Can I, a programming and electronics n00b make one? Let’s find out.
Thanks to Michael Groves for being a good sport and playing so well against Stockfish. He has his own drone company. Check it out here:
I’ve uploaded my code here:
The original Python programme which I then edited for this project:

imagine being so good at something that when somone beats you they are probably cheating
wow man you nearly exposed your ankles for this video youre really taking risks here huh
If youβre gonna get into speedcubing, get your cubes through thecubicle.
I thought for a second I was watching the Internet Historian :O
disliking because it wasn't actually put in the proper place
How the hell do you cheat at chess? I mean unless you can read the person's mind.
if someone is able to make a body safe version I will gladly test this device the intended way
By making this video you tread on ice so thin, if I dropped a Lego brick it would have shattered
Really Test it
i was like did i read the tiitle right
This makes me really want to cheat at chess…
Now we know why some chess players have very tence faces.
There is this book called Secrets of the Ninja that tells you to cheat. It is total bullshit and has been completely debunked many times. But buttmunch retards everywhere to this day take it for gospel. When you see a buttmunch who is incredibly good at something it usually goes back to the ninja bullshit. Don't just suspect it, learn to expect it.
down vote for not really putting it where it belongs and asking the other person to check him for devices. you have to be able to fully fool someone.
this is why i only host naked chess tournament, it prevents shoe sole vibrators, butt plug etc
I mean you could have just got a hush plug by lovense. you can send patterns to it live out of the box if you wanted to communicate in morse code.
no youtuber had the guts yet to put the device on the right spot yet
not gonne lie he said the only reason that i watch this video cause im a nerd but the reason why because i saw that sex toy
Ohh Needs a bigger container Doh Im out of here
He definitely cheated lol
Mike saw this one and couldn't wait to start cheating
I just love that I grew up in the city where the butt-bead cheating scandal started. God bless the Lou.
Sir we suspect that Uranus is augmented.
Chess tournaments installing frequency inhibitors in 3…2…1…
The most important part of this, I think, is that Michael can just feel that something is wrong. He has no proof of anything, but he knows something is not right.
Bruv, i have those very same socks on right now. Bananas π
I almost spit my tea when I saw the thumbnail…ππ ππ
Chess speaks for itself
I just think it's lame of magnus to not just say he thought neiman was a cheater. annoying having that story in my feed for damn near 2 months
i totaly expected it to not be posible at all, damn
In citu
Lol how is he cheating? Lol is someone else playing the game and feeding him info? Even so that would mean there's someone out there better than Magnus.
Arsuino. So… now we have to put top player in Faraday cages?
Hans βUnbeadableβ Niemann.
2:30 Just look at the way he walks away here.
He's definitely got the beads inserted… π€£
The only way to confirm he isn't cheating is to do a full goatse inspection prior to the match.
Well, its certainly interesting. But you'd deff want to be a bit more careful about the casing though, cause that exposed super glue will shred your asshole.
Thing is, Nieman wouldn't have needed anything this complex. He's a pretty strong player already, just a single buzz in a position where the computer has found a winning move is enough. Knowing that there IS a winning move is 50% of finding it: you spend more time analyzing the position and consider more unusual moves.
"It's not very inviting… butt"
what you gonna do with that… like how u cheat with it.. i need full explanations…
now recreate that lipbalm supercomputer
cant wait for cock ring basketball
Use a faraday cage.
Now test it bro β¦ so we know it works real test
I must say that even if he cheated, he cheated so intelligently that I respect that π
That'll be a great plot for a porn movie! πππ
chass
I do think that this would be a million times easier with the ones that already have "controllable pulses" from your phone….. You already have a module that can listen to your inputs, now just make the software use it….. just telling what my friend told….
Just use lovense, it has api compatability
Putting this comment here for discussion: Do you think Hans cheated over the board? If so… how? Do you think the way the media and the chess community has handled this is fair?
