 | | MissScarlett: My directions have been neglected. Just get to Lichess and download and submit individual PGNs. <stonehenge>, I’m talking to you. |

| | MissScarlett: The women’s Candidates need updating. I’m incommoded for a couple of days and the place grinds to a halt. Get on it! |

| Apr-16-26 | | stone free or die:
I'm soooo glad <CG> is throttling off my attempts to turn Javascript off, sooo I can see ads like this one from Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/431523... And only $30...
Gheesh!

Sorry for the inconvenience.

A user must create a new account with a different email address for aliases. In this case, we were able to update the username to PascalCasing, <RetiReborn>. He should be able to see the update in future comments. |

| | MissScarlett: <Mark Crowther @MarkTWIC I will be launching a Patreon very soon. I will have to stop compiling TWIC fairly soon unless I can find a way to make it pay. Maybe its time has come and gone. I have some good ideas for a Patreon community but maybe I left that too late too.> https://x.com/MarkTWIC/status/20450... <Mark Crowther @MarkTWIC
If anyone has real paying work, I would consider that. I applied for a job fairly recently in the chess world, couldn't even get an interview, even though I thought I was absolutely ideal. I'm 60 next month, will have to work into my 70s, so now is the time to find something.> https://x.com/MarkTWIC/status/20450... |

I guess Crowther's <PayPal> button never worked out. Kind of a shame FIDE couldn't subscribe or somehow step up and ensure TWIC's continuation. |

I think it would be a lot easier if your ad partners
just got out their own mobile phones and checked what's going on.
Also check out the site with many different Browsers on a desktop and a mobile: Google Chrome,
Apple Safari,
Microsoft Edge,
Mozilla Firefox,
Opera,
Brave
Use the Android versions for mobile phones.
Your ad partner should be on top of all of that -
they should be telling you.
BTW - if we check out today's puzzle some people have commented about ads: C Ionescu vs M Wahls, 1990 (move 24) I notice that my Brave browser no longer stops the adverts with my desktop -
so the adverts are even more powerful now. |

| | stevemcd87: I haven’t logged into my account in weeks on my iPhone 7, and I’m still able to use the site without any issues.
I will try to acquire an inferior Android device(smirk) to investigate further.
<z> Are you using an Android device as well?
Sorry for the inconvenience. |
|
| Apr-19-26 | | stone free or die: <stevemcd87> yes. I'm mostly a desktop user, but sometimes I do use the phone. I rarely play a game over on the phone though - that's really difficult (often hitting a move in the PGN listing instead of a move button, etc.) |

 | | offramp: Today's puzzle is <insane>. <Unsound of mind or lack of the ability to understand that prevents someone from having the mental capacity required by law to enter into a particular relationship, status, or transaction or that releases someone from criminal or civil responsibility>. It's a sad and serious mental disorder. People murder other people, then in court they say that they were insane. For the puzzle I would prefer the word "hard". |
|
| Apr-19-26 | | stone free or die: <<steve> I will try to acquire an inferior Android device(smirk) to investigate further.> That's not necessary - almost all platforms have a mobile emulation mode. You can use Developer Mode in your desktop browser and select <"Toogle device toolbar"> or somesuch. . |

 | | FSR: Someone needs to revise History of the World Chess Championship by adding at the end the most recent world championships, namely Nepomniachtchi - Ding World Championship Match (2023) and Ding - Gukesh World Championship Match (2024). |
|
Apr-19-26
| | offramp: I have had a great idea! You call the Sunday puzzles <"INSANE">....
Can you call the Monday puzzles <"RETARDED">? |
|
Apr-20-26
| | Susan Freeman: <offramp> How about <genius> for Sunday? That way CG is not offending the insane. ( After all, You never know where they are lurking, or who they are.) |

| | offramp: I am a bit agist. I don't like short people either, but that is my problem. <BUT IF THERE ARE> any agists out there, you might like this tournament: https://lichess.org/broadcast/fide-... FIDE World Senior Team Championships 2026
It's a 9-round Swiss from Durres, ALB.
One player is Gormally, and he posts frequent videos on YT.
It's teams, though. That format always creates problems at <cg.com>. |
|
Apr-21-26
| | Susan Freeman: <offramp> Many thanks. We'll check it out. :) |
|
Apr-21-26
| | Susan Freeman: Any feedback on the ads situation? It seems to be much improved now. |
|
| Apr-23-26 | | stone free or die: File under - "no news is good news", maybe?!? |
|
Apr-24-26
| | offramp: How about a week of <Phony Benoni> Games of the Day titles? There'll never be anyone like him. |
|
| Apr-24-26 | | mel gibson: < Susan Freeman: Any feedback on the ads situation? It seems to be much improved now.> No improvement. |

| | offramp: <User: mel gibson> I know that the Home Page is flooded with adverts.
If your house has been flooded you could choose DORMEO mattresses. They have an 80% absorbent quotient. They can be used as barricades against the Apocalypse. |
