2) It according to it's finger notes plays within -350 rating points,
which while in this case it may be 3100 that is naturally due to it's
own rating increase.

Seems there are more than usual right now seeking to only play humans.

I am not sure of the need to say trolled, these accounts seek to play humans,
if the human players accept the seek that's a choice. Not sure it's trolling.
