That's very interesting. It certainly seems as if Martin suddenly became semi-decent at chess, but that hasn't happened to me. I played a couple of games with Martin, and he was his usual, queen blundering self.
Martin-bot has changed

I have noticed this as well. A real 250 elo would open with h4, not play complex openings perfectly. He used to blunder a lot more, if I do remember correctly

The estimated rating in my games is all over the place, from 100 to 1700, largely depending on how strong my opponent is. I think the algorithm needs to be reviewed.

Martin bot was like a hundred times smarter playing me rather than Gotham Chess on YouTube channel. Martin bot had 30 queens playing Gotham Chess but, Gotham Chess had two extra pawns.

Yes, this happened to me. Martin switched from making opening moves seemingly at random, to suddenly playing the French Defense. He still played poorly for the rest of the game, but his opening was akin to games I have played against 1000 rated opponents.

I have had this problem he was playing like he had a rank of 500 instead

Here is additional evidence for Martin's increased intelligence:
As you can see, Martin played with 57.0% accuracy, and his ELO was guessed to be 791. That is shockingly good for someone who lost to his 4 year old son.

i would beat him easily most of the time (i'm 400 elo a newbie.) but he seems like he's got better or something

True, but your elo should be higher with that accuracy though-

well I don't play ranked really so that explains it

He played this game with 76% accuracy, and chess.com estimates his ELO as being 755.
Can someone check on him and see if it's one of his cats playing on his account or something?
