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 83 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: There has now been a LOT more deletion. Some of it harmless stuff, but once I got started... I'm sure I've missed odds and ends. But the whole point is that there is no longer a great big concatenation of juvenilia. Yes? No? Enough? Feb-17-07    mack: Let's face it, this forum was a lot better on the radio. Feb-17-07    chessmoron: <Dom> Great to have your forum back! Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: Hey, thanks, folks. It's been very spooky in here, wandering around, occasionally making sacrifices and offering prayers and such to the local deity... ... but I'm back from the mountain and my little heart-to-heart with Yahweh, and I'll never forget the Eight Commandments again, promise... Feb-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: Welcome back <Captain>!!!! Outstanding, outstanding. I have poker night with my family here, will send you an email for you to read in the morning. Cheers!! Hooorayyyyy!!!!! Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: <Jess> All in. Cheers. Like Watson, I once again have a Holmes to go to... Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: I bet this place fills up with slightly mucky rubberneckers looking for residual filth, or hoping we'll do it again, and being baffled by the bolshy balderdash. Nothing here, folks. These aren't the droids you're looking for. Feb-17-07    twinlark: *tweet* Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: I also deleted a chess game in which I had mistyped a move, and a joke that one of the CG people subsequently emailed me about -- he found it very funny and had come back to find it. And there it was -- gone. The irony. It was the old one about the three English football teams. But we won't mention *that* again. Chess? Deep crypto? The usual with a dash of extra perspicacityness? I dunno. What'll we do next? Actually, I think I'll just go to bed. It's been a long century... Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: This calls for a traditional *MARKER DIAGRAM* click for larger view ... I don't know whether the legendary recluse and cinema genius CHRIS MARKER plays chess ... but if he played The French this is what it would look like. White's game is in the last throes, as Breyer observed. Feb-17-07    Domdaniel: I know, I know, you're all busily scanning thru earlier pages to see what kind of stuff got left in, and if there are any remnants of what's gone. And just exactly WHERE are the boundaries of the sayable, the ones that we so innocently explored in headier times? I'm not sure I know. I'm not sure ANYONE does. But I have a better insight into the reason for their existence. And I'm not really that pushed about obscenity, smut and depravity anyway. <Words> are a different matter. In all languages including chess, Volapuk, and Crypto. Have fun back there. I did, twice. "You ought to be GREETED" G'night, all. Feb-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <Mack> <better on the radio> Chortle... Feb-17-07    jessicafischerqueen: <ought to be greeted>? Is this the <Kantian> "ought"? Sir Kevin Phillips Bong (slightly silly party): "nought." Whee Feb-18-07    YouRang: Hi <Dom>. Welcome back. I'm afraid I missed out on the events that lead to your rift with the admins, but it's probably better that way. Feb-18-07    Open Defence: <Writing, unlike chess, is a victimless crime> in light of the recent events... maybe not.... Feb-18-07    mack: Hey kids, who wants to hear some filthy jokes?? Feb-18-07    Knightlord: If my computer doesn't work properly, would I then have naughty bits? Feb-18-07    Domdaniel: <Knightlord> Thanks for the sterling support over at Jess's place, btw. Such acts of kindness will not go unpunished... Or do I mean unrewarded? Drat [sic] these triple negatives... <Deffi> I *have* to believe that writing is a victimless crime, how else could I bring myself to hit the button and slay zillions of innocents at a distance? Hmm. Time for the traditional song... this is one of Vivian Stanshall's... sung by a pair of washed-up cabaret artistes, Teddy Tidy and Nigel Nice, who now make a living cleaning houses... "We're Nice and Tidy, Tidy and Nice... We'll hoover your mats Or neuter your cats..." Feb-18-07    hitman84: <If my computer doesn't work properly, would I then have naughty bits?> No just.. Parity pits designed by haughty gits. Feb-18-07    Domdaniel: <YouRang> Suffice to say that you held a brief appointment as Professor of History at an imaginary university, whose very name is now lost in the mists of [expletive deleted]. Prof FischerQueen, plus accomplices including <moi>, conducted a short experiment into the limits of the sayable. We found that they existed, kinda like cosmic background radiation. Hope that clears everything up. Feb-18-07    Domdaniel: <Hitman> My, how you've grown, or shrunk, or something. I'd barely have recognized you if it wasn't for the prominent parity bits... XLNT avtaar. Feb-18-07    hitman84: <Domdaniel> <XLNT avtaar> THX Feb-18-07    Open Defence: do I still run the tuck shop ? Feb-18-07    YouRang: <Domdaniel><Hope that clears everything up.> I see - a little bit of 'playing with fire' ;-). One can never know how far one can go until one has gone too far. I'm a little chagrined to be the "professor of history" who was completely unaware of what happened. My dismissal from that post is clearly warranted. Feb-18-07    Zebra: Hi <Domdaniel>, congratulations and welcome back. I'm glad you got things sorted out.
