One hundred moves a day is small for a person obsessed with chess.

That is fishy.

That is fishy.
Or maybe he figures everyone else will move as rapidly as him, and is irked by an intransigent player.

Totally nailed it.
Regardless of time controls, some people like to move quickly in order to move on to the next one.
Like anyone commenting on it can do any better than speculate.
At least my speculation errs on the side of impatience.
Yours has some vast and malevolent conspiracy, for some unknown reason.
Guess you're just wired that way.

Is there any "referee" or "judge" or "higher authority" here that a player can appeal to get a win, as a result of unsportsmanship play? To adjudicate unsportsmaship play by one of the players?
The higher authority is Russ, but I doubt he would intervene on account of a single game or a single grievance.
