I didn't see his draw from yesterday in the list of games available for viewing. Thanks!      Aug-15-09 Mikhail Markovich Umansky    chesstoplay: Thank you for your kindness and the very fine game.      Aug-15-09 M Umansky vs The World, 2009    chesstoplay: Great game < World Team >. Again and again, game after game, the < World Team > does not lose. There is always enough "come together" to get us past the differences.

Dec-31-08    hms123: <Peter> Happy New Year!!!! Jan-01-09    Artar1: <chesstoplay>! Happy New Year! You can't be asleep yet! What about watching Babylon 5 with me? All the episodes. Yeeeah! Jan-01-09    hoodrobin: Happy New Year, Peter! Jan-09-09    kutztown46: <chesstoplay> If you have a few minutes, I would appreciate your input to a discussion which starts here: kutztown46 chessforum Thanks. Jan-14-09    zanshin: <chesstoplay: Hi <z>... How different is R3 versus R3 Aquarium?> <Peter> I don't understand the question. Do you mean the differences between R3 in Chessbase vs in Aquarium? If so, my general feeling is that they have similar functionalities (and of course, exactly the same engine), but the Chessbase product is better for maintaining chess databases, and Aquarium is better for analysis. Jan-14-09    Open Defence: IMHO Aquarium has some limitations in book learning options so those who primarily use the engine for engine vs engine competitions may not prefer Aquarium perhaps Jan-21-09    chesstoplay: Jan-20-09 Brent Baccala: <kb2ct: I would love to try Hoffman. Could you post the download URL??> It's at http://www.freesoft.org/software/ho... Check it out, but know that I've got newer code that handles complex pawn formations a lot better. I'll do a new release shortly. Jan-27-09    YouRang: Quarterly award: There are a number of names that come to my mind. For now, I'll just suggest some "nominees" -- <DPLeo>, <DanLanglois>, <zsoydd>, <pawndookie>, <mworld>, <edda zeitz>, but I'm sure there could be others. It's a difficult call. Jan-27-09    kb2ct: <chesstoplay: Dear < kb2ct >, Congratulations! You are our 2008 yearly World Team chess leadership/merit scholarship winner.> Thank you. I may need help with my avatar :0) Jan-27-09    hms123: <Peter> First, thanks for the kind words. Second, as <YouRang> indicated, there are lots of good choices this time. My list would be something like <DPLeo>, <DanL>, and <Nickster> in roughly that order (but very close). There are certainly lots of others (<edda zeitz> and <pawndookie> in particular) who should be considered. Thanks for doing this. Jan-29-09    benjinathan: pawndookie Jan-29-09    zanshin: Thanks <Peter>: <zsoydd> or <edda zeitz>, Jan-29-09    Tabanus: DPLeo, pawndookie, lonepsycho, Nickster Jan-29-09    YouRang: A hard choice: We pick 3? I'll go with <pawndookie>, <DPLeo> and <DanLanglois>. But others are equally worthy, IMO.
