Kibitzer's Corner
Sep-12-13  Nosnibor: In the crosstable of the tournament why does it show Brody with a zero against Forgacs when he won that game ? It is not consistent with the crosstable of St. Petersburg tourney of 1909 when Nenarakov withdrew early on but is still credited with the game he won against Perlis.
Dec-30-13  Karpova: Karl Teller, a merchant from Coburg, died in early April 1915. He was one of the driving forces behind the coming into existence of this very tournament (XIV. German Chess Congress in Coburg, 1904).
