  OlimpBase: Heheh, yes, there WAS a Short-Moraza games played in Dubai, 1986, of which the moves are correctly displayed by chessgames.com. Yet one Short was of course not famous Niget but Philip, an obscure Irish player. BTW I cannot find some major Dubai 1986 games like Georgiev-Suba, Campora-Seirawan, Ftacnik-Popovic, Spraggett-Torre, Nogueiras-Kindermann. If you happen to know the moves please let me know.

  OlimpBase: BTW Nigel Short-Moraza, England-Puerto Rico, round 1 game was forfeited by the Puertorican as an act of protest against late pairing corrections that threw them into merciless English hands after they had felt a nice, fuzzy feel of being paired vs Zimbabwe.
