If someone hits an exact, the closest score under and over will score the points for second place.> Actual Game: [player]-[player] 0-1 45 Participant 1: [player]-[player] 1/2 45 Participant 2: [player]-[player] 0-1 45 Participant 3: [player]-[player] 0-1 44 Participant 4: [player]-[player] 0-1 43 Participant 5: [player]-[player] 0-1 46 Participant 1: No points even though 45 is correct. Results must be correct. If Result is wrong and moves # is correct...you get no points whatsoever Participant 2: 10 pts rewarded for correct Result/moves # Participant 3: 7 pts rewarded for closest under (1st-Under) to 45 moves Participant 4: 6 pts rewarded for the 2nd closest under (2nd-Under) to 45 moves. Participant 5: 3 pts rewarded closest OVER(1st-OVER) to 45 moves. Again, the description of Participant 3, 4, and 5 are based on there being no exact prediction as made by Participant 2. <IF> there is an exact or an under closest, the highest scoring over participant will be 2nd over. The second closest over will be 3rd over. The <ONLY> time there will be a first over is if there is no exact or under winner. Things To Look At: 1.

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 848 OF 848 ·  Later Kibitzing> Oct-08-24    Fusilli: <stone free or die> <And here is the link to this late period, rather enjoyable, live version song by the "Matamoros Trio"> Enjoyable indeed! Here's some that I do remember from my parents' collection: Jorge Porcel sings "Contigo en la distancia" -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQa... Armando Manzanero sings "Adoro" -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gb7... Trio Los Panchos performing Quizás, quizás, quizás: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ4... (The English version --"Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps"-- is famous, but the composer was Cuban and the original lyrics in Spanish. And, of course, "Bésame mucho," one of the most famous boleros, sung here by Consuelo Velázquez: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY0... Oct-08-24    OhioChessFan: I happened to leave my XMSirius Radio channel on 79, a channel that changes formats each month. Started my car today and found this month it's called Carlos Vives Channel and so lots of Vallenato and other Latin genres. I encourage everyone to get a subscription to SiriusXM. By far the best money I've ever spent on anything. Carlos Vives-La Gota Fria https://youtu.be/Nmb80HXWsFQ?si=bcl... Oct-08-24    stone free or die: Thanks <Fusilli> and <OCF>. I have to confess I preferred the last two picks by <Fusilli> over the first two (maybe it's the violin backing parts - reminding me of Creed Taylor's influence over George Benson - but compare my opinion to Benson's <George Benson "Creed Taylor was one of the most incredible producers of our time. Responsible for the success of Bossa Nova, Jazz organ, Wes Montgomery and my own career. And that's just a few of his many musical contributions. Most of all, he was my friend and I will miss him." https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?...>) I do like <OCF>'s pick too, with accordian, no less! Nov-19-24    Messiah: 1.Rxg6+ maybe? Nov-19-24    Messiah: White m8s in 2: click for larger view Nov-19-24    OhioChessFan: Oh duh. I posted it wrong! Sorry <messiah> I'll delete that one and get it right. Nov-19-24    OhioChessFan: click for larger view White to play and win. Nov-19-24    Messiah: <Messiah: 1.Rxg6+ maybe?> Now it does not seem to work. In 30 seconds I did not find the solution, so it has to be cooked. Nov-19-24    OhioChessFan: Rxg6+ is not the first move. Nov-20-24    diceman: OhioChessFan: click for larger view <White to play and win.> Qxg5 (Very nice) You will eventually win blacks queen by forcing black into a discovered check on h7 over and over as you remove pcs. from the 6th rank. Nov-22-24    OhioChessFan: <dice> is correct. Qxg5 hxg5 Rxg6+ initiates a windmill ending with Ra6+ and RxQ next. Nov-29-24    WannaBe: You may find this interesting... Religion & AI. https://www.yahoo.com/news/swiss-ai... Dec-09-24    OhioChessFan: Odd story. I've meant to respond any number of times but really have no words of wisdom. I expect the average US employer will use AI instead of EAP counselors if it saves them a dollar. Dec-13-24    Messiah: https://www.arkadium.com/games/mill... Dec-20-24    Fusilli: Hey my Ohioan friend, what are your Christmas plans? Care to share on my forum? Others are welcome too! Dec-26-24    Penguincw: Hi <OCF>. Seasonal greetings to you, my friend. Feb-08-25    Fusilli: May I interest you in my <morbid trivia>? Check out my forum! Mar-23-25    OhioChessFan: Not too difficult. White to mate in 3. click for larger view Mar-23-25    stone free or die: <OCF> is the trick guessing what square the Black king is on? Mar-27-25    OhioChessFan: Wow, that makes the puzzle much harder. Let's try this again. click for larger view Apr-14-25    OhioChessFan: Puzzle solution: 1. Bc3 h2 2. Ba5 Kxh7 3. Bf7# Apr-15-25    stone free or die: Cute interference interlude Aug-13-25    Fusilli: Funny thing is, a minor typo in the setup of the position would have also rendered a mate in 3 solution! click for larger view A lot less artistic and definitely not puzzle competition material given that there are many solutions, since white has 6 possible moves after 1...h2, and on top of that, black has 2 different moves after 5 of those 6 possible moves. (Did I get that right?) But it's always mate in 3, and white's first move is always the same. Aug-13-25    Fusilli: On a totally different note, <OCF>, I remember you writing somewhere about being very happy with SiriusXM. I just got a new car that came with a trial. I haven't even tried it yet, but I wonder, why should I bother? Isn't it just like listening to the radio? Aug-13-25    Fusilli: <stone free or die: <OCF> is the trick guessing what square the Black king is on?> Well... if I place the black king on c8, it's mate in 5. In multiple ways, but always the first white move. click for larger view Jump to page #    (enter # from 1 to 848) search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 848 OF 848 ·  Later Kibitzing>
