<Good morning>
Your new submissions have been published- here is the game I was talking about above: Iosif Lvovich Yanushpolsky vs D Rovner, 1929 ==============
I am going to wait before publishing this submission: [Event "??"]
[Site "Chicago, IL"]
[Date "1986.??.??"]
[Round "?"]
[White "Andrew Schremser"]
[Black "Leslie Bale"]
[Result "1-0"]
[WhiteELO "?"]
[BlackELO "?"]
[Source "Bill Wall, 500 Pirc Miniatures, p. 441"] 1. e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 3. Nc3 c6 4. f4 d5 5. e5 h5 6. Nf3 Bg4 7. h3 Bxf3 8. Qxf3

Be1 Bxa3 16. bxa3 Qxa3+ 17. Kd2 c5 18. Bg3 Ke7 19. Nxd5+ 1-0 While checking the player names, I discovered that there are duplicate player pages for <Leslie Bale>. The only reason I found this is because I copy and paste every single player name into the cg.com Main Search box before submitting any pgn. I would ask you please to adopt this practice as well. In this case, we don't want to publish a game that has a player with a duplicate page. First, I will submit a correction slip to requesting that Leslie Bale and Leslie Bale be merged. Once the correction slip has been processed, then I will publish your submission. |

| | Stonehenge: When uploading games from Edward Winter's site, please make sure to include dots in every move. Now an editor (me) has to do all of that. |
|
| Dec-18-20 | | Z4all: ( Kinda wish <Stonehenge> cited an (the?) example... to save me the time of digging one out... but I did, allthesame.) Consider this snippet from C.N. 11709

New game (obvious)
2. Ctrl-Shift-i (import PGN)
3. Cut and paste the above into the dialogue box.
4. Import (Alt-i)
5. Paste Current Game (Alt-p)
And now you can cut-and-paste a proper PGN... dots and all! *** Note this will also help you find errors in the input PGN, if they existed [which they "never" do on Winter's site - ha!] ***

| | GrahamClayton: A nice puzzle by Latvian chess composer Johann Sehwers, in which the White rook cooperating together with the bishop makes the Black queen run out of safe squares:

| Oct-14-21 | | jonfrankle: Hi, Graham. I just joined chessgames.com, to reach out to you because you posted some info about my Des Moines, IA childhood friend and early chess mentor, Dan Harger (games: Dan Harger). I've kept up with almost everyone else from our (DM Theodore Roosevelt) high school [Dan '69, myself: '72] team, but lost track of Dan after he visited me in California in the early 1980's. I'm not sure how you know him, but a few of us would like to reconnect with Dan if you can help. Thanks!
Jon (jonfrankle@gmail.com)
PS -- My son and I took our first trip to New Zealand and Australia in spring 2019, enjoyed it and hope to return someday. |

| | GrahamClayton: If anyone wants to upload some games to chessgames.com but doesn't know how to do so, I can recommend this PGN editor: http://www.caissa.com/chess-tools/p... After creating the PGN score, replace "%Created by Caissa's Web PGN Editor" with the [Source] tag and you can upload the game without any problems! |

| | GrahamClayton: A nice study by B Serus, published in the Polish magazine "Szachy #182" in 1959 - the White King chases the Black bishop all across the board before trapping it.
