| Feb-09-06 | | sitzkrieg: But the Csom defense in the Rauser is just bad.. |
 |
| May-20-09 | | shalgo: My database includes 643 Csom draws of 20 or fewer moves. He might be the all-time champion of grandmaster draws. http://shalgochess.blogspot.com/200... |

 | | tpstar: <shalgo> Nice article! I look forward to your next one on short draws by means of perpetual check. Another candidate is Andras Adorjan |
|
| May-20-09 | | shalgo: <tpstar> Thanks! I count 561 Adorjan draws of 20 moves or fewer in my database, so I will be sure to mention him in my next update. Csom and Adorjan were opponents in 12 of these games. |

| May-20-09 | | returnoftheking: Were did you learn the word prolegomena? |
|
| May-20-09 | | returnoftheking: I had to look it up. But nice article indeed. |
|
| May-20-09 | | shalgo: <returnoftheking> <Were did you learn the word prolegomena?> I first came across it in the title of Kant's Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics--which I have not read, incidentally. I thought it would be funny to give an article about such a trivial subject (drawing lines) such a serious-sounding title. I suppose that reflects poorly on my sense of humor. |
|
| May-20-09 | | returnoftheking: I'd say great job, and as a side effect you impress us a lot. |

| Jun-02-10 | | TugasKamagong: <shalgo>, great sense of humor, nice use of the word prolegomena. It reminded me o the word paralipomena, from a book by Schopenhauer. Perhaps if you got as enthusiastic about Csom's originality as <SneechLatke> is, and wrote an article about Csom's best wins, you could use the words parerga or paralipomena in the title. |
|
| Jan-08-11 | | reztap: Does anyone have info on Cleveland 1975 which Csom won? |
|

 | | OhioChessFan: Huh? Is <Antiochus> another account of <BidMonfa> ? |

Your eyes see Csom, but your mind reads CMOS. |

 | | Infohunter: <WannaBe> I suppose that means I'm not a geek. But I DO like to read Hungarian dictionaries, so I wonder what that makes me? |

| Sep-14-12 | | rapidcitychess: Hello, low-resolution picture!
Could we get a nice photo, perhaps? |
|
Sep-16-12
| | Infohunter: <Stonehenge> Funny sketch; thanks. I take it you realize that there is not one genuine Hungarian word in it. |
|

| | Stonehenge: Yes, one of the reactions said "It's not in Hungarian what he says." |

 | | parisattack: A 'modern (post-war) hypermodern.' Not a very big group - Csom, Barcza, Suttles, Blatny, Larsen, Welling, Danielson. Others, please?
Many of course with 'tendencies' - Stein, Miles, Andersson, Persson, Morozovich. Everyman Press just released 'Chess Secrets: Great Chess Romantics. I was hoping for a tome on Hypermoderns, but both Reti and Morozovich are included in the Romantics. |
