Jan-08-19 Domdaniel chessforum    Domdaniel: Blank Reg: "They said there was no future - well, this is it."      Jan-06-19 Kibitzer's Café    Domdaniel: Haaarry Neeeeds a Brutish Empire... https://youtu.be/ZioiHctAnac      Jan-06-19 G McCarthy vs M Kennefick, 1977    Domdaniel: Maurice Kennefick died over the new year, 2018-2019. RIP. It was many years since I spoke to him. He gave up chess, I reckon, towards the end of the 80s, though even after that he was sometimes lured out for club games. I still regard this game, even after so many years, as the ...      Jan-06-19 Maurice Kennefick    Domdaniel: Kennefick died over the 2018-19 New Year. Formerly one of the strongest players in Ireland, he was the first winner of the Mulcahy tournament, held in honour of E.N. Mulcahy, a former Irish champion who died in a plane crash. I played Kennefick just once, and had a freakish win, ...      Jan-06-19 Anand vs J Fedorowicz, 1990    Domdaniel: <NBZ> -- Thanks, NBZ. Enjoy your chortle. Apropos nothing in particular, did you know that the word 'chortle' was coined by Lewis Carroll, author of 'Alice in Wonderland'? I once edited a magazine called Alice, so I can claim a connection. 'Chortle' requires the jamming ...      Jan-06-19 chessgames.com chessforum    Domdaniel: <al wazir> - It's not easy to go back through past Holiday Present Hunts and discover useful information. Very few people have played regularly over the years -- even the players who are acknowledged as best, <SwitchingQuylthulg> and <MostlyAverageJoe> have now ...      Jan-05-19 Wesley So    Domdaniel: Wesley is a man of his word. Once again, I am impressed by his willingness to stick to commitments.      Jan-04-19 G Neave vs B Sadiku, 2013    Domdaniel: Moral: if you haven't encountered it before, take it seriously. Remember Miles beating Karpov with 1...a6 at Skara. Many so-called 'irregular' openings are quite playable.      Dec-30-18 Robert Enders vs S H Langer, 1968   Domdaniel: <HMM> - Heh, well, yes. I also remembered that Chuck Berry had a hit with 'My Ding-a-ling' in the 1970s. I'm not sure which is saddest -- that the author of Johnny B. Goode and Memphis Tennessee and Teenage Wedding - among other short masterpieces - should sink to such ...      Dec-30-18 T Gelashvili vs T Khmiadashvili, 2001    Domdaniel: This is the game I mean: Bogoljubov vs Alekhine, 1922

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 175 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Wilson> believe it or not, I watched half of <Dominion> and it actually calmed me down enought to sleep after the <Rob Zombie>. <Dominion> is not boring, I liked the first half a lot. But you know.... that dang <Zombie> movie is deleriously horrific. May-31-07    chessmoron: slomarko screaming 'impostor' is a desperation call. May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: OH and I forgot. I'm actually <Blako> rather than <bill>. I may be <Bill> as well, for all I know. Regards, CC May-31-07    chessmoron: Listen to Rob Zombie's music and his film. Your head is going to EXPLODE!!! May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Wilson> heh. What is your review of <House of 1000 Corpses>? I think it is the scariest film I ever saw so far. Would love to hear more of your opinion on it. May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: JINX! May-31-07    chessmoron: <Blako>, <bill>, <jess>, <IOB>, <SOB>. Make no difference for me. May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Wilson> hmmm. I could say something, but I promised not to!! (will keep promise) Best, Bill May-31-07    Domdaniel: So, how've them Candy Dates Matches been doing? I've only seen bare results so far. Any games worth looking at? May-31-07    chessmoron: Extreme gore but not a lot of wit in the movie. Fun but okay. May-31-07    Domdaniel: <Jessica Whistler Shaw> You will. May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: I wish I'd said that Check out <Magnus Dei> <Ironing> II It was <game of the day> yesterday, and for good reason Ask <Eyal> for full report, he has watched and analyzed many of the games so far May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: Nicely done as usual, <Dom>, compressing two posts into one answer. <Oscar the blabbermouth> May-31-07    Domdaniel: <Jess> But I *am* the rightful heir to the English throne. So is everyone else in Britain, Ireland, Canada, and the other colonies. And double rightful for everyone in Jamaica. Jah Windsor! May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Wilson> thanks for the <Rob> review. In your opinion, for you, what are top 3 films that <scared you> the most? May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: Well you've done it again <Dominus>. You've got both of the kibbutzers who were trying to catch your <number three> spot spamming in YOUR forum now. How DO you do it? May-31-07    Domdaniel: <Jess> Aye, lass, I don't often compress, but when I does compress, I compresses good and proper... gdnprpr. May-31-07    Domdaniel: Animal magnetism. Specific gravity. Luck. I dunno, rilly. May-31-07    Domdaniel: <3 scary movies> 1. The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (no idea why, but it made me hide behind the seat when I was a kid...) 2. Dead Ringers (another seat story -- I stayed stuck in it for 10 minutes when the cinema lights came up -- terrifying) 3. Silence of the Lambs (not really that scary, I thought -- but the 2nd time I saw it in a cinema I got bored and leaned forward during a tense Lecterish moment to tap the shoulder of a friend in the row in front... she lifted off, rising vertically several feet into the air with a shriek of anguish...) May-31-07    Eyal: <Dom> Welcome back. About the matches: Aronian-Carlsen is very interesting (as expected) - a brilliant win by Aronian on game 1 and by Carlsen on game 3. And so far there were several French games in Adams-Shirov and Leko-Gurevich. May-31-07    Domdaniel: <Eyal> Thanks -- I'll go look at some now... I thought I was getting *too* dependent on Fritz etc -- it's ages since I'd even played through a game without running an engine simultaneously -- so during my latest hiatus I made a point of playing thru games slowly the old-fashioned way. Quite enlightening, really ... though my instinct is still to 'verify' my findings with an engine. I also decided that *all* narratives are open -- if you just find the right way of looking at them. But that's a delusion, and will undoubtedly pass... May-31-07    WBP: Just looking in for a moment--off to a party. See how smoothly things run, <Dom>, when you're at the helm? But here's a question that's been bothering me for several months now. Why is <Wilson> called <Wilson>? May-31-07    jessicafischerqueen: He is actually <Wilson Pickett> May-31-07    WBP: Thanks, <Jess>. (A very tall Wilson Pickett!) Off to the party! May-31-07    achieve: <Domdaniel: Evening, all. Thanks for that water, Mr. Lark. I needed that. My apologies, folks. As Mr Dylan sez, I hadda go to the woods for a while. That's probably some kinda metaphor. In practice, I just went a few days without turning a computer on, to see what it was like. I passed the time by reading, writing, and -- hadn't done this for years -- playing through chess games the old-fashioned way, on a board. But I missed you all. So I came back. I suspect that *everyone* here is nicer than I am, but never mind ... Thanks for keeping the place operational, btw.> I kinda like that post very much.. Though we're all at arm's length, there is nothing like a friendly word from the <Dom>. I hope all's well with you. Use "your" findings separately from an engine's. That way you can beat a World CC Champion as has been shown. <Jess> had me in her pocket as you might well have understood.. ;-) Jump to page #   (enter # from 1 to 963) search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 175 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing>
