 | | MissScarlett: I direct Steve's attention to Prague Masters (2026) (kibitz #11). I can manually fix the games but the problem would seem to be at your end. |

 | | jnpope: <Susan Freeman: < stone free or die: And also here: Tim Krabbe
(Chessgames - Losers)>>
If <Susan> explicitly signs off on this I should have time this weekend to do the split and migration.
<<Stonehenge: While you're at it:
Louis Stumpers.>
<jnpope: Are you suggesting we migrate the games to a new Louis Stumpers PID and rename the existing one to... what?
<Chessgames - Puzzles and Enigmas>?>> And should this be done too?
|
|

 | | Susan Freeman: sure thank you :) |

 | | DaltriDiluvi: I would like to make the following query to the CG database: "Give me all of Hikaru Nakamura's blitz games (but none of his rapid or slow games)". I think there's already a way to do this, but I cannot remember it :-( |
|

 | | Chessical: <DaltriDiluvi> You can do this by using the Games Table on the player's own page. It allows you to diffentiate by game type. |
|
Feb-28-26
 | | DaltriDiluvi: Thank you, <Chessical>! It works like a charm. |
|
Feb-28-26
 | | jnpope: The first migration has been completed.
The old Tim Krabbe is now Chessgames - Losers
And a new Tim Krabbe now exists. |
|
Mar-01-26
 | | jnpope: The second migration has been completed.
The old Louis Stumpers is now Chessgames - Puzzles.
And a new Louis Stumpers now exists.
Also, <Chessgames - Homer> was renamed to Chessgames - Literature.
If there are any more hijacked biographies in need of a split/migration please notify User: Susan Freeman and if she signs-off on creating a devoted forum for the hijacked biography's topic I can add it to my <TO DO> list. |

Dอaอtอeอlอiอnอeอ: Iceland๐ฎ๐ธ, early March 2026. The most inhospitable chess tournament ever held is taking place on the wind-blown <Skร ksamband Islands>, north by north-west of the Iceland mainland, pop. 6. Some of Iceland's hardiest GMs have made the dangerous journey to the desolate volcanic <Skร ksamband Islands>. Many of the players are sleeping on their palliasses in the lighthouse. Ooh matron! I salute <FM Conor O`Donnell> who paddled the whole journey in a bloody coracle! It took him two days to keep the bloody thing <๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐>. In such frozen conditions, no wonder he got a Gretarsson! First prize is a tin of <๐ข๐พ๐ป๐ผ๐ฝ๐ป๐ธฬ๐ถ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ท๐ฐ>. Second prize is TWO tins of <๐ข๐พ๐ป๐ผ๐ฝ๐ป๐ธฬ๐ถ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ท๐ฐ>.> |

 | | MissScarlett: Further complaints about repetition in the <POTD>s. It's apparent that the person tasked with the job either does not have the leisure or the interest/ability to adequately perform the role. I want to make it clear that I am not volunteering to replace them! |
|
| Mar-05-26 | | stone free or die: Does that mean User: kev is no longer doing them? If so, might an official notice, with proper thanks, be in order? He provided a vital service to <CG> for many, many years (decades?). . |
|
Mar-05-26
 | | Susan Freeman: Kevin is an old timer at CG. He was a close friend of my son. I'll find out what's going on with the puzzles. CG has a system of double checking these too. Strange.
BTW, <SFoD> no official good byes are necessary. |
|
| Mar-05-26 | | stone free or die: <<Suzz> BTW, <SFoD> no official good byes are necessary.> Guess that means <kev> is still doing the puzzles. That makes the recent behavior all the more curious then. |
|
Mar-07-26
 | | MissScarlett: It's that time again.......clear the <GOTD> list except for the last entry: <1157727|J Thor|E Scholl|Thor's Immortal (beatgiant)> |
|
Mar-07-26
 | | MissScarlett: Itโs the weekendโฆto absent friends. |

 | | Check It Out: The QOTD is by Fischer, <Is it against the law to kill a reporter>, with his name hyperlinked so I clicked on it: <Unknown player 'robert james fischer'.
Try our search engine?>
Poor Fischer has sunk to new lows. |

| Mar-08-26 | | mel gibson: I can only use this site with my desktop.
I just tried again with my mobile phone -
Samsung Galaxy A35.
The adverts cover all the chess game
and I can't find the X or cross to remove most of them. The adverts make this site unusable.
This has been going on for months. |

 | | DaltriDiluvi: Here's a page listing the forums supported by chessgames.com: https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... I'd like to mention that there's a forum for chessbooks which is not on the list. Here's a link to the forum: ChessbookForum chessforum |

 | | Willber G: <mel gibson: The adverts make this site unusable.> The site has two revenue streams: adverts and paid membership. If you pay, they go away. The choice is yours. |
|

 | | stevemcd87: <mel gibson: I can only use this site with my desktop...> We removed the interstitial ads for mobile while we investigate further. Let us know if the issue persists. |
|
| Mar-10-26 | | stone free or die: A welcome move.

 | | MissScarlett: < If you pay, they go away.> This principle could apply to premium and non-premium members. If User: Messiah was a premium member, he could return and User: stone free or die would then be banned. Unless, of course, User: stone free or die also became a premium member. |
|
| Mar-10-26 | | stone free or die: I see the kettle is trying to stir the pot.
<User: stone free or die would then be banned.> Don't think so, even making allowances for the lack of logic. As for <Messiah>, I didn't ban him, only asked he stop devoting his entire <CG> energies on stalking various users from forum to forum. (I wasn't the only target - fwiw) |
|
| Mar-10-26 | | stone free or die: And as for me being non-premium - that won't be a concern after <Suzz> transfers ownership. . |
|
| Mar-10-26 | | stone free or die:
chessgames.com chessforum (kibitz #43058) <Missy> running out on to the pitch! * * * * *
(Needed that lunchtime cup of coffee, can't believe I missed it first round!) |
