Aug-11-17
| | OhioChessFan: I know I'm in a minority, but I do prefer this contest to the Games Prediction Contest. As one example why, a gold medal for picking a grand total of 2 decisive games out of 45? Yawn. |

|
| Aug-11-17 | | chessmoron: <In other news, <OhioChessFan> earned The Dreaded <chessmoron> Glare for missing that round.> What's funny is that until you mentioned it, I was not even aware that you didn't post your prediction for round 8. :D |
|
Aug-12-17
 | | WinKing: Thanks for all the hard work <chessmoron> running three contests in a row. Time for you to take in a little R&R. Thanks <Ohio Chess Fan> for recapping the rounds & hosting the event. Congratulations to all of the medalists! Special grats to <Golden Executive> & <wordfunph> each picking up a gold medal! I felt like I was up against a 'tag team' trying to win my medals. You guys made me work a little harder this time around. ;) |
|
Aug-12-17
| | OhioChessFan: ** Final Recap **
<WinKing> held on to take 2 gold medals. <GE> had a firm hold of the Bonus Ranker gold and never let up. <wordfunph> held off a late charge by several others to take the #1 Ranker gold. <OhioChessFan> is breathing easy after finally hitting a #1 to get the 0's off the scoreboard, and also finding out that <chessmoron> isn't ready to dunk him. Thanks to everyone for playing, to the starters, and to <chessmoron> for scoring. It was a lot of work to hit those 3 tournaments in quick succession and it's much appreciated. |
|

 | | offramp: Well done to the winners, and thank you to Chessmoron and OhioChessFan for their efforts and calculations! |

 | | Penguincw: < OhioChessFan: I know I'm in a minority, but I do prefer this contest to the Games Prediction Contest. As one example why, a gold medal for picking a grand total of 2 decisive games out of 45? Yawn. > I think I like this contest better too. Maybe because it's I've earned more medals here, but I do like the smaller numbers (feels like a community here). Each contest is however, unique in its own way. The contest over at <GE>, well, it might be cheesy to do so, but even if you have a bad tournament, you're still in medal contention. This contest, if you've had a bad tournament, tough luck. But it happens. But since I actively participate in all 3 contests, obviously I like them all. I may have preferences, but I'm sure that's normal. |
|
Aug-12-17
| | Penguincw: Thanks <chessmoron> for hosting another great tournament, and thanks to <OCF> for making it possible. Congrats to the winners, hope to see you next time. Normally I would ask when's the next one, but I think you should take a well deserved break now. So I'll ask later. |

| | WinKing: I have just taken the time to update chessmoron's HOF. I started from the beginning of OCF's forum the 2009 Corus tournament & went through all of the contests to make sure nothing was missed.
Took about 12 hours but I did find a few things that were missing. I have posted it in my forum. Now if we can just get <lostemperor> to up date his HOF we will be all set. <Golden Executive>'s HOF is meticulous no work needed there. |

| | OhioChessFan: Wow, that is awesome. I wouldn't begin to have the patience to do all that work. |
|
Aug-15-17
 | | Big Pawn: <ohio>, let me know what you think of that book on critical thinking. |
|
| Aug-15-17 | | Nina Myers: <critical thinking.> Give it a try, Big Pawn! |
|
Aug-19-17
| | OhioChessFan: <BP> still working on it. Don't want to draw a premature conclusion, but I have a strong suspicion the author is a Eurolib and should read his own book. |
|
Aug-19-17
| | Big Pawn: Laaaaaaaawd have mercy. Not just a lib but a "Eurolib". Well, we all know what that means. Still, it may be a good exercise in critical thinking to have to deal with all these thoughts that you naturally want to reject (for good reason), and learn how to deal with them sans emotion. Looking forward to your review. |
