I was simply responding to Michael Byrne's claim that you would almost never
find two such games by a single player in one year. I found them in the first
two games that I looked at, from the same player, in the same tournament. If it
was that easy for me to find such games, I don't think it is unreasonable to
think that an IM could play a series of moves that a computer did in a few games
in one tournament. You can always win your side of the argument if you
continually put more constraints on it, as you're doing. "No opening positions.
No endgame positions. That game doesn't count because it's not complicated
enough. This game doesn't count because it was played on a Tuesday..."
