 | | Honza Cervenka: <sachistu> "-ar" are last two letters of Sajtar's surname and it was free for use then unlike "js" (used by Jan Sefc). |

 | | MissScarlett: Are you there? |
|
| Aug-01-22 | | belgradegambit: Is there anyone with an older member since day than Honza? |
|
| Aug-02-22 | | stone free or die: <belgradegambit> that's an interesting question. I thought I once had a list of some of the more significant early members of <CG>, but I just spent 5-10 minutes looking for it with no success. I think I used Wayback to look at very early kibitzing history on <CG>, and culled out the names I recognized. Easy to redo - but I won't be doing so just now. We can agree though that <Honza> is one of the early's. |

| | Honza Cervenka: <belgradegambit: Is there anyone with an older member since day than Honza?> I am here nearly 20 years since September 2002. There were many people here already then but many of them are inactive for a long time and some of them are unfortunately dead. And some of them like User: refutor occasionally pop up after long time just to say hello to old friends. But quite a lot of people are here since 2003 or 2004. |

 | | Benzol: Well I for one am glad that Honza was and is still here. How are you doing old friend ? 😊 |
|

| | Honza Cervenka: <Benzol> I am still alive, and that is quite satisfactory. |

| Jan-19-23 | | waddayaplay: Oh you are still here.
I was trying to remember all the power users from when I was active. I wonder what happened to this site? When I was here it seemed to be getting bigger, with GMs joining, but now it's like it has been in decline for 5-10 years. |

| | Honza Cervenka: <I wonder what happened to this site?> The main problem is that both co-founders of this site, Alberto A Artidiello and Daniel Freeman, unfortunatelly passed away in 2015 and 2018. But the site is still alive. |
|
| Jan-21-23 | | waddayaplay: Oh that sucks.
I always enjoyed chessgames.com being an active user. It's weird when you leave a community and come back to a sort of ghost town. |
|
| Jan-22-23 | | technical draw: <Is there anyone with an older member since day than Honza?> I'll be here 20 years in November.
Hello, <Honza>. We used to chat in the early days but nowadays I just stick mainly to my forum. (Except when I want to bother <WannaBe>!) |

 | | Bishoprick: I'm in Prague and or in Blatna at least once a year. I am probably much older than you, but it might be fun to get together. In the 70's I reached a USCF rating of 2026, but now I'm only around 1800, but still having fun with chess. My favorite players used to be Tarrasch, E.Lasker, and Rubenstein, and in more modern times, Fischer and Karpov. But I would say that young Carlsen is also fun to watch. |

 | | Stonehenge: That's a very interesting puzzle.
Obviously not Kh3 but the other two options...
Stockfish knows the answer but I still don't understand it :( |
|
Jun-23-23
| | Honza Cervenka: <Stonehenge> The problem with 1.Kh1(?) is, that it gives black sufficient defense after 1...Kf8! =. That was the move, which was actually played in a real game, and it led just to a draw. Fuller answer you can find at Hort vs O Kinnmark, 1961. |

| Sep-08-23 | | Obvious Troll: <Honza Cervenka> Hey, Mr. Winawer, you got reincarnated! Must've done something right in your previous life. Not bad, not bad. |

| Jan-04-24 | | thegoodanarchist: <belgradegambit: Is there anyone with an older member since day than Honza?> He has bested me by about 11 months. |

Unfortunately, he hasn't been around these parts in more than 9 years: <...Last seen Jul-21-14> |
