 | | Benzol: Peter must be involved in other work as his forum has now become defunct and it doesn't look like he's visited the site recently. :( |

 | | suenteus po 147: <Benzol> & <Phony Benoni> As I informed <jessicafischerqueen> on her forum, I can no longer afford the premium membership I have maintained for the past several years. The combination of job search costs and the end of my student funding mean that for the next 9 months to a year I must tighten my belt and cut all the extraneous costs I can. However, I will still be around. This site has been a boon to me in so many ways, not the least of which are research sources and a wonderful place to relax and forget about all my work for a little while. In the absence of my chessforum, my player page will have to suffice for collection news and updates, though now my efforts will be finite, at least until I can afford the premium membership again. I hope you both have been doing well. I'm going to try and check in with you both a little more than I have been, since I'll be able to: the dissertation has been going well! :) |

| Aug-02-10 | | nescio: <suenteus po 147> You can use my forum if you need it. Say the word and I'll open it again. |

| | suenteus po 147: And so I returned home to find that someone has paid for a new premium membership for me. There are so many generous and giving people in this world, they are too many to count! I understand that this sort of thing usually goes hand-in-hand with anonymity, but whoever you are, if you come forward I would be happy to do whatever I can to pay recompense. It might take the form of a series of game collections of your request, but I'll do the best job I can :) <nescio> Many thanks for the offer! If not for the generosity of my unknown sponsor I would have hit you up immediately :) |

 | | Annie K.: <Peter> - hi. :) My first premium membership here was an unexpected gift from another member (User: chess champ). Until I managed to track down the identity of my sponsor using my brand-new Search Kibitzing powers, it really bothered me not to know. So I'll spare you that - I confess: it was me, and I don't regret anything, either. ;p I'm relatively well off at the moment, you deserve the support, the cg.com guys deserve the support, and it was a good opportunity to pass on the kindness I once also received. Enjoy! :) PS - I don't want any game collections, but I'll sign the offer over to <Jess>, if she wants anything. ;) |

| | suenteus po 147: <Annie K.> My sincerest and heartfelt thanks! As you are already well aware it is a splendid and wondrous to receive such a gift unasked for, so you know it means a great deal to me. That having been said, don't be so quick to sign away tournament collection requests. You never know when you will stumble across a 200 game tournament played in Bucharest that you'd like to see collected but you have neither the time nor resources to do it yourself: that's where I would come in :) |
|
Aug-03-10
| | Annie K.: You're very welcome. :)
Heh - ok, if I ever need a tournament collection, I'll know whom to ask! Meanwhile, I enjoy working with <Jess> on her YouTube projects lately, so if your collections help her, they help me. :) |

| Aug-03-10 | | Alphastar: Why are there only losses of yours in the chessgames database? You ought to play me sometime to set that straight. |
|

| | suenteus po 147: <Why are there only losses of yours in the chessgames database?> Because that seems to be the only result I can muster against master level opponents :) Honestly, if someday I win a game that stands up to decent analysis of play against an opponent equal to or greater than my level I will be all too happy to submit it to the database. Until then, I'm not unhappy to be a NN. |

| Aug-10-10 | | rapidcitychess: <AnnieK> Hey! What about poor little me over here? Just kidding, But I'm glad to see that Mexican Chimp again. |

| | suenteus po 147: Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I appreciate it very much! <tpstar> Still working on that win against master-level competition. I dare say I will have my PhD before I beat a 2200+ opponent! |

| | Benzol: Peter your Game Collection: Berlin 1881 has become the first historic tournament to be released. It would be great if you put in an appearance to see it. :) |
|
| Nov-02-12 | | ughaibu: Will we be able to kibitz on tournament pages? |
|
Nov-02-12
| | Phony Benoni: <ughaibu> Yes, you can. They will work in the same way as pages for current tournaments, except that there will be no Chess Bookie action. This is the link to the tournament page.

 | | kingscrusher: Your game collections are truly amazing - and you have some very relevant Hastings ones which i think their new website should have. |

| | Benzol: <kingscrusher> Peter hasn't been active here for a wee while. I'm hoping he comes back soon. :) |
