Human

@ProfDrHack Humans, even first timers, do better than that. Maybe he was using a VERY weak program to suggest moves for him because he couldn't tell what moves were legal and which ones weren't? That would make the most sense
Or you know, maybe he just used his brain? Humans can play any legal moves, they're all on the board.
First timers do better than that!? I don't think so / I didn't.

How about..getting off your high horse instead?

EDIT: your name says it all. Hf with reports
@edvindracula So a human being could make those moves with intentions other than trying to lose on purpose? Seems far fetched!
I see what happened.

The OP played this person and though many of their moves made no sense.

I'm pretty sure they thought it made no sense because they are very weak and bad in his opinion.

In the same way, if Magnus Carlsen looked at my games, he would be confused about how I play so badly.

I'm pretty sure that's what the OP is thinking, not that he played a computer.
"Oh hey, look at that guy, he makes such bad moves! So bad that I would have not even thought about them! Not even when I started learning the game! I am so much better!"

...he wants to say, yet he is the one who makes a fool out of himself, belittling other people when he's clearly not Magnus Carlsen either, not by a long shot.
Yeah, I'd say so. With the exception of the knight trade on 5. Nxc6, their first eleven moves followed standard principles of centralization, activation, not giving opponent free stuff, and castling.

The idea behind moves like b4 was to push pawn majority to queen - something they followed on upon with b5 and bxc6.

Counter-eating in exchanges that follow is pretty natural as well. Finishing it up with moving away the threatened rook is bit above average for a human (as opposed to leaving it hanging) but nothing exceptional - responding to Rxb8 with in-between Qxc1+ as you did is far more Germane (and Germans are humans too).

Moves like 23. Qxa7 and 26. Qa5 aim to grab pawns - doubtlessly they expected 26 ..Bxe3 27. Bxd5 (kicking the queen away).

Honestly, I can't see any moves I'd call nonsensical by white - black is far more inhuman, what's with responding to 16. b5 up with Bg5 rather than with reinforcing the threatened pawn or following up on the threat with knight done on previous move - are you sure you're human :p ?
It's not surprising the OP has Turing Test-style issues on such a basic level...he is very rude and insulting in-game and probably thinks that anyone who doesn't play like him must not even be human. Which also explains why he would treat people the way he does ;)
