Is this a Muffed Gamefowl? I would really like to get the answer.

I have no doubt you know a world of things I don't. I believe you when you say you have an open mind, are creative and even well educated.
You say I don't show you respect? What I do is no less respectable then when you ask questions when completely ignore or write off what others tell you. So many of your posts seem more like you want someone to agree with you other then give their honest opinions.
I post helpful post to you when I can. I've answered many posts or shared genetic info with you quite often. Its just that that means little to you.
The reason I post on your threads is because I can. When you post on an open forum you open the door for anyone to comment. I actually probably wouldn't post if you didn't post incorrect info as often as you do. Other people will come and read these threads for years to come. Isn't it fair that they get correct information and/or different opinions?
I'm sure in all your researching you are looking for correct information aren't you?
Sorry if I was being a bit harsh, I just don't like people who pretty much, pop up, and tell me that I'm wrong on things, or make things more complicated for me. I've had a troubled childhood, it doesn't help much. I out smarted a teacher once, and got sent home because of it. Yes they called my dad to pick me up because I corrected a teacher, I was in 4th or 5th grade when that happened. I got bullied alot in school also, because I believed different things, and had different perspectives, plus I was always the one to get in trouble, not the bullies. Chickens is my happy place now, nothings going to change that.
 
Your chick has a smaller beard than the EE, but that's the only different I can see.
One thing I notice about the game bird- he has a dubbed single comb. Since your chick doesn't have much of a comb yet, the head shape looks a little bit like the game because he's missing his comb.
How about these pictures?

That muffed game has a cushion comb.
 
Yes, I have. Your chick has a pea comb, common for EEs. What's your point?

That is definitely not a cushion comb. For one, to make a cushion comb you'd need to cross a chicken with a pea comb and a rose comb. Games don't have rose combs.
Games can have various of combs. Some are bred to have almost no combs showing, shamo is an example. I just posted those photos for another view of my chick's face is all.
 
Standard Old English Game with cushion comb.View attachment 1758051
The standard for Old English Game is straight comb.
The bird in your photo looks to have been dubbed - which would also be standard for showing.

Do you have links to these random photos you are finding on google or wherever. It would be interesting to know where you come up with that this particular bird (in the photo) has a cushion comb - if it truly does, then it's not a "pure" OEGB

There's also rose combed games.
All you need to do is search them.
