Oct-15-20		OhioChessFan: "Hang On, Supi"

Oct-16-20		An Englishman: Good Evening: Can’t get that song out of my head, darn it.

Oct-16-20		al wazir: Not a very interesting game. White gave up one ♙ unnecessarily, than another, and helped black out by trading pieces. And what was the point of 59. Nc6 ? Why not Nxa6 ? If 59...Kf6, then 60. Nc6, and now it's white threatening to promote a ♙.

Oct-16-20		Brenin: The pun refers to the official rock song of the State of Ohio. See https://ohiohistorycentral.org/w/Oh... for an entertaining piece of 1960s legislation.

Oct-16-20		perfidious: Still a tall order to reconcile Rick Derringer of the 1970s hit <Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo> with that bit of '60s pop.

Oct-16-20		goodevans: <al wazir: Not a very interesting game.> Not a very appropriate pun either. I'm not sure whether Luis Paulo Supi has any more fitting games for the pun but he certainly has more interesting ones.

Oct-16-20		OhioChessFan: <goodevans: I'm not sure whether Luis Paulo Supi has any more fitting games for the pun > By all means, play through all of them and get back to us so that we can criticize your selection. Surely you've got nothing better to do than spending 10 hours to validate a 2 second bit of wordplay. Loike, sheesh... Anyway, I picked his longest game, figuring that's the one he held on the most.

Oct-16-20		goodevans: <OhioChessFan: [...] Anyway, I picked his longest game, figuring that's the one he held on the most.> Except that it was his opponent that was 'holding on' for at least half the game. I'm guessing you didn't play through the game or you'd have seen that. But you miss my main point - if you can't find a good fit then at least find an interesting game. L P Supi vs Carlsen, 2020 would work on that score.

Oct-16-20		moronovich: <"If you'll pardon the pun" A running joke had one character adding "if you'll pardon the pun" mid-conversation, when there had, in fact, been no pun uttered. The second character, puzzled, would say, "What pun?" and the first character would say, "Oh, wasn't there one? I'm sorry", and resume the conversation.>

Oct-16-20		OhioChessFan: 18 moves...of course I saw that game. But 18 moves? (I know it was 18 without looking. That's the game I got Supi's name from) Sure, that'd lead to, "I don't know how an 18 move win is an example of holding on blah blaj blah"

Oct-16-20		AylerKupp: <<Brenin> The pun refers to the official rock song of the State of Ohio.> The things one learns by visiting <chessgames.com>! I liked the Ohio state house's Concurrent Resolution no. 16 (Why concurrent? What else were they debating at the same time?). Particularly the incorporation of some of the song's lyrics into the resolution. Wouldn't it would be nice if current state assemblies were able to have such a good sense of humor? Just like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmc.... But, of course, your post made me think, always a bad thing. Apparently, per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_..., all states except New Jersey have an official state song, although it's not always explicitly labeled as such. And some states have more than one, although I don't know how they reconcile that and how they decide which one to play at appropriate state events. But there are many song categories other than "official". They include Companion, Cowboy, Emeritus, Environmental, Glee Club, Historical, Honorary, Patriotic, Popular (the opposite, I suppose of Unpopular), Spanish, and Traditional. New Hampshire is apparently the most musical state, with 2 official songs and 8 honorary songs. And only Ohio has an official Rock Song. But Washington State has an unofficial Rock Song, "Louie Louie". I wonder how many times their legislature listened to it in order to make out what the lyrics were. But there are other musical categories besides songs. These include Anthem, Ballad, Bluegrass, Cantata (!), Hymn, Lullaby March (both Regular and Ceremonial). And there are dances too; Polka and Waltz. And non-musical official things as well, Odes and Poems. It looks like our state legislatures have had a lot of time on their hands over the years. Now, to keep this post somewhat on-topic (it's never too late!), listen to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62G... from the musical "Chess" while watching today's Norway Altibox 2020 games. Better than listening to Kramnik and Polgar (no, just kidding).

Oct-16-20		SlowBishop: It looks like wrong game record. Black’s 59th move was probably 59... Ke6, not 59. ... Kf6 Move 59. ... Kf6 has no sense, while move 59. ... Ke6 indirectly protects a6 pawn because after 60. Nxa6 Kd7 white knight is trapped. So game continuation 60. Nc6 after 59. ... Ke6 makes perfect sense.
