| Sep-17-07 | | zanshin: <kwgurge> Did you get your Full Analysis on the Team game to work? I posted a question for you on the game board, but you might have missed it. I used 100 s per move and a threshold of 30 but got a pretty poor result. So I did not bother to post, esp. since <RV> posted the definitive analysis. |
 |
| Sep-30-07 | | mrknightly: <kwgurge>I am familiar with your comments and analysis from the recent Battle of the Brains. So, on that basis can you explain for me the idea behind 10.Qa3 in the GMT game. I think you switched from Bg5 to Qa3. I have been following the game and comments, but the move seems counter-intuitive to me. Thanks for your time and comments. |

 | | kwgurge: <mrknightly> Your forum is not activated for a reply. Somewhere around page 535 to 540 in the GMT game I posted my ideas regarding the reasons behind Qa3. |
|
| Oct-03-07 | | mrknightly: Thanks. I saw your comment. Exactly what I was looking for. |
|
| Oct-03-07 | | zanshin: <kwgurge: Sorry about the delay in responding to your question on my forum about the Brains game.> That's ok .. I figured as much. So much for Fritz and its 'award winning analysis'. I see you've been real busy on the GMT game though. I'm 0-2 in voting for the highly contested moves, but that's team life. |

Thanks for your kind and encouraging words, but you know, I'm very calm. We had a great time in the Yury game, but this one is too much like our first, and maybe worse. I think I'll sit this one out. Good luck. |

While it's your decision, you will be sorely missed if you go through with this. You've been one of the pillars of the team, and I don't think there's anyone on the team - even <Thorsson> - who wants to see you go. |
|
| Oct-11-07 | | Elixir of Life: <Artar1> I agree with <whatthefat>. While it is your decision, I hope that you will come back. You were one of our teams core analysts. You will be missed a lot. Regarding the lack of bickering in the GMYS game: I'm not being negative, but in my opinion that game was technical and, well, doesn't have much creativity (other than 12...f5). When there is a lack of creative ideas (compared to the GMAN game), there is bound to be less bickering Bickering and creativity are one package. They come together. |

| Oct-25-07 | | Artar1: <imag>, <kwgurge>, <ajile>, <whatthefat>,<kutztown46>, and <twinlark> Greetings,
I have a request to make of you all if it’s agreeable. Because of my current workload (Yes, I do have a job, and yes rumors of my homelessness have been greatly exaggerated!) and my wish to help my daughter with her college work (Yes, I would like her to leave home one day; the thought of her still living in her room past 30 is unthinkable!), I will have limited time for the remainder of this game. But if you have a line you would like me to look at and provide objective data (Well, nearly objective; would you believe highly biased and opinionated?), I would be happy to do so. Just leave a message in my forum, and I will get right on it. If I don’t hear from you, that means you got GMT beat so I can completely relax, right? So let me know what you think. Besides, we do have a decent position, but there is still a lot of chess to be played. Artar1

| Oct-30-07 | | The Chess Express: <Artar1> I hope you’ve made the wise decision. I made that decision awhile ago, but then the Fischerandom started. Speaking of which, <kwgurge> I noticed that you haven’t signed up for the Fischerandom yet. It’s not too late to join. The game is just getting started. I’m on team black again. |

 | | playground player: <kwgurge> "Harder to improve as you get older"--you said a mouthful! I was pretty hot in high school and college, and then I stopped playing for 30 years, only starting up again 2 years ago. I've never studied so hard in my life, as I've been studying chess for the past year or more. And I have no idea whether I'm improving or not! Despite all the studying my best games seem to be almost entirely intuitive: and when the faucet of intuition is turned off, I don't play very well. Which is funny, when you think about it. I'm always learning new things, and not having much trouble doing so. Chess seems to be the only thing I just can't get better at. Why should that be? |

 | | Robin01: That looks like it was one short game of chess with Pianoplayer. |

| | playground player: <kwgurge> You hit the nail on the head there, too. It's so frustrating, to play very well for a time and then detour into the valley of blunders. I wish I could somehow play a game against myself at 18. One consolation: I can't lose! |
