I think you're going to have to track him down somewhere else. Chances are, this is now just a thread at the bottom of many other threads on bitcointalk he has. Who knows how often if he even checks in here much, or is his health is good, and so on. We know he is somewhat active with pesobit. Don't we know his username here?
I think his work with pesobit is already done. He is now working as the adviser of ICOBID Platform. I don't know if he is part of the development team of that token but one thing I know, he has still plan for this coin, i tried to contact him about chesscoin, well he said he just need to finish the ICO, maybe it was this ICOBID PLATFORM ICO and then he will continue with chesscoin development. About the name, Just Read the OP.
