whoa cubistic

Recently there's been someone playing in 7447 under the name "cubistic". This guy is one of the craziest players we've seen, simply because of the sheer number of games. He started playing in mid-April, and in his first two months has racked up over 420 games! Check out this stats script: http://arcturus.su/tenhou/ranking/ranking.pl?name=cubistic&type=0&from=20081222&to=20090614

So how strong is he after all those games? According to that script, his 7447 stats are slightly above breakeven; in 0000, he's earned 6 kyu with a rate of 1600+. (Not bad since the average 6-kyu is R1487.) Certainly stronger than the average beginner!

Without being an internet tough guy, I think it's safe to assume he is still a beginner. He has some gameplay habits that are telling of beginners, such as calling every tile possible and getting into furiten.



But imagine what could happen if he keeps playing at this rate... there could be a MONSTER turned loose in 7447!
