I suspect that User 254586 may be related too, given the amount of fool's mates that user tried to play.
A nybble is the less common spelling for half of a byte, after all.

The three players who have done it:
1. User 330658
2. User 330289
3. User 285655
Numbers 1 and three have practically the same username, and numbers 1 and two joined within one day of eachother. All have about the same rating and same number of games played. 😲
To add emphasis:
