<Format>:
[player]-[player] [result] [# of MOVES]
==4 Different Scoring Methods==
Standard Moves Ranker (1st place-Over[3pts], 1st place-Under [7pts], Exact [10pts])
Bonus Ranker (3rd place-Over[1pts],2nd place-Over[2pts],3rd place-Under [5pts], 2nd place-Under [6pts]
Standard Moves/Bonus Ranker [Add all to together]
1st place Ranker [how many 1st place you have in Standard Moves Ranker]
For example:
<Note: Participants 3, 4, and 5 are predicated on nobody scoring an exact as Participant 2 did. If someone hits an exact, the closest score under and over will score the points for second place.>
Actual Game: [player]-[player] 0-1 45
Participant 1: [player]-[player] 1/2 45
Participant 2: [player]-[player] 0-1 45
Participant 3: [player]-[player] 0-1 44
Participant 4: [player]-[player] 0-1 43
Participant 5: [player]-[player] 0-1 46
Participant 1: No points even though 45 is correct. Results must be correct. If Result is wrong and moves # is correct...you get no points whatsoever
Participant 2: 10 pts rewarded for correct Result/moves #
Participant 3: 7 pts rewarded for closest under (1st-Under) to 45 moves
Participant 4: 6 pts rewarded for the 2nd closest under (2nd-Under) to 45 moves.
Participant 5: 3 pts rewarded closest OVER(1st-OVER) to 45 moves.
Again, the description of Participant 3, 4, and 5 are based on there being no exact prediction as made by Participant 2.
<IF> there is an exact or an under closest, the highest scoring over participant will be 2nd over. The second closest over will be 3rd over. The <ONLY> time there will be a first over is if there is no exact or under winner.

OhioChessFan: Brown nose, brown shirt........

   Oct-18-18 Alekhine vs B H Villegas, 1926

OhioChessFan: Love the annotations...

   Oct-18-18 Kenneth S Rogoff

OhioChessFan: If he turns out to be 100% Caucasian, we'll have to call him John Smith.

   Oct-18-18 Daniel Gormally

OhioChessFan: <Scarlett: Would stealing a Ray Keene book from a charity shop be considered a mortal sin or an act of mercy?> It's fine if you wrote it.

   Oct-18-18 offramp chessforum

OhioChessFan: Very good <Count> I had that idea, most of my efforts focused on FC having done it too, but never came up with something good.

   Oct-18-18 Jeremy Lim

OhioChessFan: <HMM: it shows that some of these fans are huge ego heads, hurting the game.> 100% agree. Playes making millions of dollars, network TV involved for hundreds of millions, franchises worth a billion and more, and these idiots interfere in the game. DON'T TOUCH THE BALL! ...

   Oct-18-18 Mikhail Vladimirovich Golubev

OhioChessFan: Do you like being interviewed? Just put up with them? Ever feel like you're giving away secrets when you review games?

   Oct-18-18 Fischer vs Korchnoi, 1962

OhioChessFan: Clicking quickly through the game, it's really fascinating that Black plays d6 and g6 in the first 3 moves, and then the entire set of Kindside Pawns stays right there for 20 moves.

   Oct-18-18 Kibitzer's Café

OhioChessFan: <harry: Finishing with my GF is bad noooooz for you guys/gals on ere > Don't forget to let the air out.

   Oct-17-18 S Lunde vs Tobias Simon Lindgaard, 2017

Oct-15-18		OhioChessFan: I don't know about baseless. Just saying....... You responding was fine. I wanted them to shut up about it too. It was totally pointless, as the final answer was going to be known soon enough. And as it turned out.......

Oct-15-18		saffuna: <It was totally pointless, as the final answer was going to be known soon enough. And as it turned out.......> Sorry, <ocf>. What does that mean?

Oct-15-18		chancho: <OCF> Your taking exception to how <Sargon> responded to you and making your displeasure known to one and all, is not going to change his point of view. It's clear he did not like the shenanigans of outright flaming post-Freeman (probably before even then) and he wants to do something about it. As the new webmaster, that's his prerogative. I hope that you don't end up leaving this site because you disagree with the changes.

Oct-15-18		diceman: <saffuna: <It was totally pointless, as the final answer was going to be known soon enough. And as it turned out.......> Sorry, <ocf>. What does that mean?> Are you really that dim? If you speculate A caused B. In order to even begin to be correct, B has to happen.

Oct-15-18		Robed.Bishop: <chanco> While I agree that the new webmaster can act as he chooses - his prerogative - that does not mean that input from users will be ignored. It is too early to make that judgment. Perhaps you and I would have reacted differently to the warning posted here and replied to <chessgames.com> with a more measured response, but <the admins> have an implicit obligation to set the tone of the site. To deny any obligation would demonstrate a lack of respect that the <Admins> stated is the intended goal of enforcing the posting guidelines. <chanco>, please do not take this response as a rebuke to your post as that is not my intention. If users disagree with <Admin's> postings, we should be able to address our concerns, and I continue to agree with your ultimate statement.

Oct-15-18		chancho: <Robed Bishop> No biggie. :-)

Oct-15-18		OhioChessFan: All right, well, I'll settle down and not buy trouble. As is plain to see, I have a huge problem with people in positions of authority, any person in any position, who abuse that authority. But I'll continue to try to make this site better and not worse.

Oct-15-18		thegoodanarchist: < diceman: <saffuna: <It was totally pointless, as the final answer was going to be known soon enough. And as it turned out.......> Sorry, <ocf>. What does that mean?> Are you really that dim? > It's possible. Or, in Jim's defense (what is this world coming to? I am giving him benefit of the doubt!) maybe he hasn't seen this post: chessgames.com chessforum (kibitz #31037) But I expect that he has, and is just trying to goad <OCF> to spell it out. That way, Jim can maintain plausible deniability, yet, highlight it for the admins, just as he did with <BP>: "I didn't want <BP> banned!", he said. Yet he continued to highlight <BP>'s most offensive posts! <saffuna: I referenced it repeatedly>

Oct-15-18		thegoodanarchist: So be warned, <OCF>, <dice>, <tpstar> and all other conservatives. Jim will try to goad you into specifics, and most likely then use the "Blow the whistle" function, and pretend all along he didn't want you suspended.

Oct-15-18		OhioChessFan: tga, I am all over thst.

Oct-15-18		saffuna: <So be warned, <OCF>, <dice>, <tpstar> and all other conservatives. Jim will try to goad you into specifics, and most likely then use the "Blow the whistle" function, and pretend all along he didn't want you suspended.> I will not use the blow-the-whistle function. (And I never used it against <tga> either.) However, earlier today <ocf> wrote the following: <It was totally pointless, as the final answer was going to be known soon enough. And as it turned out.......> I would like to know what that means before commenting. Because if I comment on what I think it means, I will immediately be accused of inventing things. So, what does "as it turned out" refer to?

Oct-16-18		diceman: <saffuna: So, what does "as it turned out" refer to?> It rained in Piccadilly Circus.

Oct-16-18		diceman: <thegoodanarchist: "I didn't want <BP> banned!", he said. Yet he continued to highlight <BP>'s most offensive posts! <saffuna: I referenced it repeatedly>> Two wrongs making a right has always been a "feature" for saffuna.

Oct-16-18		OhioChessFan: Fatboy Slim has the gall to talk about other people's posting habits? Whew.

Oct-16-18		diceman: <saffuna: I will not use the blow-the-whistle function.> Says the guy, who said, he would only use people's screen names.

Oct-16-18		saffuna: I can't ask what a cryptic post means before responding?

Oct-16-18		diceman: <saffuna: I can't ask what a cryptic post means before responding?> This: <I will not use the blow-the-whistle function.> Isn't a question.

Oct-16-18		diceman: <saffuna: I can't ask what a cryptic post means before responding?> Why would you believe you can't ask a question you've already asked twice? <Sorry, <ocf>. What does that mean?> <So, what does "as it turned out" refer to?>

Oct-16-18		Keyser Soze: <saffuna: <ocf><It is beyond despicable that someone is trying to take advantage of the webmaster's death for his own selfish ends.> Who do you believe is doing that? I believe the two people who used the webmaster's death to accuse another poster of causing that death were taking advantage.> Of what? I think he meant people taking advantage to <gain power on the new administration.>. Big pawn didn't acused anyone directly of killing anyone. Just made a case that <IF> stress was a issue , than some people could be blamed, which I agree. Stress caused by that individual is well known. I proved already and his legal threats is on record . Period. Question for you: who was the two people who was so interested to buy the site <while mourning (cough cough!) For him ? Where the same to tried buying Daniel's mother (wtfk ?) a premium membership? No hidden interest behind? I don't buy that .

Oct-16-18		saffuna: Totally wrong.

Oct-16-18		OhioChessFan: Amazing how someone generates so much controversy with their markedly uncontroversial posts.

Oct-16-18		Keyser Soze: Ok then..

Oct-18-18		diceman: <Tiggler: Thanks for your vote for me on Memorable Quotes.> Nice avatar. Didn't know your interest was cloud computing!

Oct-18-18		thegoodanarchist: <diceman: <Tiggler: Thanks for your vote for me on Memorable Quotes.> Nice avatar. Didn't know your interest was cloud computing!> Apparently it's mushrooming into a hobby for him.

Oct-18-18		OhioChessFan: Brown nose, brown shirt........
