    I don’t know what buttplug cheating controversy is, but there’s this story on Fischer vs Spassky fight that acuses Fischer of using something radiation shit planted to Spassky’s chair that makes Spassky unable to think clearer and focus, this is for me unscientific I never came across such device even in the internet that alters your concentration, now delving to buttplug cheating controversy tbh this is much more likely to happen than what Spassky accusing Fischer of doing even though its funny since the requirements are only minimal (the chess contender should know morse code, the morse code sender is in same rating as the player contending or an AI, and a buttplug) easy as that HAHAHA maybe Nakamura use it on his fight against Nepomniachtchi since he was coach by Wesley before the fight but what Magnus did is based beyond comprehension HAHAHA if you can’t win destroy their reputation HAHAHAHA

      I might be one of those who fell for those tactics (destroying someone’s reputation) but yeah, comparing radiation shit and buttplugs, buttplugs win. Vibrating buttplugs are a thing, vibrators that connect via bluetooth to vibrate in time to music is a thing, thus, it’s easy to make the jump to vibrating buttplugs that connect to the internet for communications purposes.

      Sorry kung nalihis ko yung usapan natin, but that’s probably the only competitive chess controversy I’ve ever heard, and if it were not for the bawdy exaggeration (the buttplug thing supposedly came from /r/anarchychess) it might not have ever reached my ears, and many others.
