Apr-10-11		Penguincw: Oh.Interesting.Is Viktor Korchnoi in this tournament?

Apr-10-11		Harvestman: What are the entry criteria for this? What makes a player a senior?

Apr-11-11		dakgootje: You have to have forfeited at least once because you fell asleep.

Apr-11-11		Penguincw: < Harvestman: What are the entry criteria for this? What makes a player a senior? > I don't know.Maybe you have to be at least 65.I think there should be some wagering from this tournament.

Apr-11-11		soldal: "Participant can be any gentleman or lady who is registered by his ECU federation, and he reached his 60th birthday till 01.01.2011 or she reached her 50th birthday till 01.01. 2011." http://scacchivda.com/wp-content/up...

Apr-11-11		Shams: Women live longer than men, yet become seniors earlier?

Apr-11-11		HeMateMe: I recognize a few names. Timsoshenko, Suba, and Nona G.

Apr-11-11		TheFocus: The time-delay feature would come in handy here. Besides, every senior is allowed to stop the clock once during the game for a few minutes nap or just to show off pictures of their grandkids.

Apr-11-11		HeMateMe: I'm sure Fischer would have demanded a patent, if such a feature could be put on a chess clock.

Apr-11-11		TheFocus: Wow! What an idea! A time-delay chess clock! Maybe we could even try mixing the pieces in a random fashion on the first rank instead of that same old boring set-up. We could call it "Mixed-up Chess" or some such like. Man, the future of chess is looking better every day.

Apr-11-11		Shams: <I recognize a few names. Timsoshenko, Suba, and Nona G.> Kupreichik, author of the transpositional 5...Bd7 in the Sicilian. Let's see...Algimantas Butnorius, uh, the "Notorious B.U.T." Strutinskaya, known for her ambulatory gamesmanship. Tomas Olives, who smells like pimento. Jan Rooze, master of japery. Giovanni "Who da cello!?" Iudicello. It's a murderer's row here.

Apr-11-11		zubenator: I believe it's 60 years for men and 50 for women. but I don't remember now where I saw that

Apr-11-11		TheFocus: <zubenator> <soldal> <"Participant can be any gentleman or lady who is registered by his ECU federation, and he reached his 60th birthday till 01.01.2011 or she reached her 50th birthday till 01.01. 2011."> http://scacchivda.com/wp-content/up... Scroll up.

Apr-12-11		Skakalec: Kortchnoi is not here. He is not senior any more. He is more like Methusalems now (together with Gligoric, Taimanov, Ivkov and few others)

Apr-12-11		TheFocus: Nice to see Nona doing so well.

Apr-14-11		Manuel G. Vergara: Every kibitzer here sounds funny eh! hehehe

Apr-14-11		HeMateMe: ...thats because we're typing underwater! (I'll be here all week, $10 cover, two drink minimum...)

Apr-19-11		Everett: So has Suba won? That would be great for him. Congratulations!

Feb-19-20		Nosnibor: Ken Norman seems to have played M Kierzek twice in this event. But no his opponent played his wife Dinah Norman! and it is wrongly stated on his games schedule.
