fredthebear: Are you hung over again <MissScarlett>?? Do you have something against fun chess??It's a chess game and this is a chess website. Get over yourself <MissScarlett>. You should be damn grateful for quality chess posts from one of the most entertaining chess writers of all time who just happens to play full throttle, daring chess (although 24.Be3 is an example of playing it safe -- not opening lines to one's king, under the circumstances of simultaneous "correspondence blitz").
It's certainly not a perfect chess game, but where is your appreciation of tactics? The game ends with a blind swine royal double attack, a maneuver that you likely have never pulled off in your entire life.
What's more, you have proven innumerable times that you don't know what "garbage" is. The filth, cyberbullying, and dishonesty tolerated and promoted on this website is astounding, flabbergasting, and never-ending. Chessgames is loaded, loaded, loaded like an overflowing port-a-potty with waste that does not bother you in the least, "weed puller."
It's worth repeating -- knowledgeable chess people should run a chess website. Are you listening Susan Freeman? ("No" would be the answer to my own question.)

Ah, clarity. FTB can say with certainty that chess notation errors are rather common at some point on a scoresheet. Players that use the long form find it much easier to fix their miscues after the fact and are rewarded for its use. As a chess coach, I certainly prefer its use. For PGNs? No, but it's certainly no reason to dismiss a game.
