Don't click the pocal, the winner is not there yet because three of his games are missing and the standings is not edited. Apr-04-18    Sally Simpson: It looks like Vincent Keymer was not on the electronic boards for three games. Rd1. White v Thomas Maedler (2087) 1-0 Rd2. Black v Philipp Humburg (2204) 0-1 Rd4. Black v Pascal Karsay (2148) 0-1 He was ranked 99th at the start of the event. http://grenkechessopen.de/en/a-open Aug-25-18    Tabanus: Keymer's 3 missing games still not available? Aug-25-18    whiteshark: <Tabanus: Keymer's 3 missing games still not available?> Megabase 2018 incl. update 44 has only the 6 games that are already in here. (These six games have been cb-annotated here: https://de.chessbase.com/post/13-ja...) Games of rounds 1,2 and 4 are missing... r1 board 98 Keymer vs Thomas Maedler (494th seeded) | 1:0 r2 board 86 Philipp Humburg (318th seeded) vs Keymer | 0:1 r4 board 67 Pascal Karsay (399th seeded) vs Keymer | 0:1 Keymer was 99th seeded. My guess is that these lower board games have not been DGT-recorded. Aug-26-18    Tabanus: <whiteshark> Thanks! Maybe some Karlsruhan will send in the games some day. In the meantime, I'm not sure whether the standings should be edited or not. Aug-26-18    Tabanus: Now you can click the Pocal! Note to new management: I'd like to see [<6> games] behind Keymer, etc. for all players. Two wrong game results were found, slips sent! Aug-26-18    morfishine: <Tabanus> FWIW: I stand beside you against any and all idiots who dare attack you here at <CG>, I wanted you to know that best always, morf ***** Aug-26-18    Tabanus: Thanks <morf> :) I'll do my best not to delete a bio again, without replacing it with a new one.
