I think that they thought they were already too good and old, and should let new players rise and fulfill their destiny.
good idea

I love this article!
I've been wondering the same thing for a long time and decided to contact with one of the old ones. I mean VERY old. Besides that one, I guess they all bored and dropped playin for a similar reason. Opening theory becomes way too computerish over the years. Everybody knows 12 moves of theory at start and no more thinkable positions until mid-game. Championship is one of a good achievement but in the hustle and bustle of daily life, few people can find the time for it. I still appreciate the effort and see the way you've just started @MarcotheTiger cause I've been thru there . Don't go for any deep along this journey because you won't be able to see where it ends. Atomic history dates back many years and if you are really curious, go @chronatog 's profile and check out the old champions back before 2016 or ask somebody about FICS then you'll see where it goes. Thank you for the blog.

Teilchen is literally a rigger. He also rigged ultrabullet. He shouldnt be talked about but rather banned for elo manipulation.
