    He's not going to learn much unless he takes a 4 stone handicap.
    This "vicmorrow" guy is, more than likely and sadly, the same
    sandbagger that was recently deranked. He started his account on the
    same day as the deranking, also has a Taiwanese client, and played
    exclusively the Aya bots before playing Zen. He doesn't resign in
    the middle of the games now, and wins more of them, but I don't
    believe for a second he isn't sandbagging.


So the guy is basically trying to pump up the rating of the Aya bots?
   Are the Aya bots getting to play a lot of games with others or are
they playing only him?

There are eight Aya bots, and they are playing 24 hours a day (thank you, Hiroshi, for providing them). So he will be having a negligible effect on their ratings. More likely, his motivation is to reduce Zen19N's rating.

    If any games are to be learned from, it's the losses from equal or
    stronger players like Aja.
