<Format>:

[player]-[player] [result] [# of MOVES]

==4 Different Scoring Methods==

Standard Moves Ranker (1st place-Over[3pts], 1st place-Under [7pts], Exact [10pts])

Bonus Ranker (3rd place-Over[1pts],2nd place-Over[2pts],3rd place-Under [5pts], 2nd place-Under [6pts]

Standard Moves/Bonus Ranker [Add all to together]

1st place Ranker [how many 1st place you have in Standard Moves Ranker]

For example:

<Note: Participants 3, 4, and 5 are predicated on nobody scoring an exact as Participant 2 did. 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.

Sep-26-10  LIFE Master AJ: <He can't do no analysis
Can't see those pins and skewers
Without his Junior helping
His game is in the sewer
Always plays what Naum says
Never thinks too far
That chess playing dumb kid
Sure clicks a mean spacebar.>

Hilarious. I actually saw "Pinball Wizard" ... (by "The Who.")

I guess that sort of dates me a little bit, doesn't it?

Sep-26-10  LIFE Master AJ: <<The priest thought for a while. "Well, I think you have done well with the spacebar. Yes, you have really mastered it. For your efforts today, I will award you the rank of ...

... spacebar master.">>

I literally laughed out loud!

Wanna know what I think? UR2creative.

Everybody's a spacebar master DOH!
They all were cluelesss patzers. DOH!
Without their quadcore masters DOH!
Their game's a sad disaster.

They were clueless little men from their clueless little towns

They were loading Rybka up and they were pressing spacebars down

It's a brand new cyber secret and everybody knew their part

Just load your Fritz into your new Dell, and click a key to start!

Everybody's a spacebar master DOH!
They all were cluelesss patzers. DOH!
Without their quadcore masters DOH!
Their game's a sad disaster.

There's no analyzing, no need to sac a Pawn

After every move by Pogo, just turn your IMACs on.

We ran Houdini and Stockfish, started tapping the spacebar

30 plies but no thinking, oh yes, that's who we are!

Everybody's a spacebar master DOH!
They all were clueless patzers. DOH!
Without their quadcore masters DOH!
Their game's a sad disaster.

Spacebar Masters

Listen, children, to a story
That was written long ago,
'Bout some patzers on a chess site
And their skills were very low.

On the world team was a traitor
To their cause, a man of hate.
And the world team started voting
To concede their brush with fate.

Go ahead and run Houdini,
Go ahead and look at Fritz.
Run 30 plies on Rybka
You know you're not playing blitz.
There won't be any human judgment
On what move to play.
And right up to the deadline,
Spacebar masters type away.

So the leader of the chess site
Sent a message to that man.
Asking that he would please step down,
'Fore he messed up the grand plan.

Came an answer from the traitor,
"With the patzers we are mad.
Just a bunch of spacebar masters,
And your game is really bad."

Now the world team cried with anger,
"Load your Stockfish! Run your Dell!"
And they beat the evil traitor,
Made his life a living hell.

Now they look upon the game score,
On the chess site, fear and dread.
Saw the Dancing Rook upon it........
"1-0 World" was all it said.

Go ahead and run Houdini,
Go ahead and look at Fritz.
Run 30 plies on Rybka
You know you're not playing blitz.
There won't be any human judgment
On what move to play.
And right up to the deadline,
Spacebar masters type away.

Go ahead and run Houdini,
Go ahead and look at Fritz.
Run 30 plies on Rybka
You know you're not playing blitz.
There won't be any human judgment
On what move to play.
And right up to the deadline,
Spacebar masters type away.

Spacebar Masters

Spacebar Masters
Why don't you get a life?
Spacebar Masters
You're never gonna beat my wife

Now because you use those newest Dells (oh yeah)

And have a big quad core, oh yes you do now

Do you think she can't beat you like a dead dog(oh yeah)

And then the next day brag on her blog.

Spacebar Masters
Why don't you get a life?
Spacebar Masters
You're never gonna beat my wife

Now I know all the GM's I've seen you play (oh yeah)

I know you beat them bad one after another now, byte by byte

You made 'em cry, many poor GM's cry (oh yeah)

When they try to keep up with your engines, they won't be satisfied.

Spacebar Masters
Why don't you get a life?
Spacebar Masters
You're never gonna beat my wife

I'd rather see her play a poor guy that thinks on his own(oh yeah)

Than some engine chasing patzers like all of you

Cause when she thinks on moves, she wants thinking in return (oh yeah)

Now I know this is a lesson Spacebar Masters you haven't learned

Spacebar Masters
Why don't you get a life?
Spacebar Masters
You're never gonna beat my wife

Spacebar Masters
Why don't you get a life?
Spacebar Masters
You're never gonna beat my wife

Oct-03-10  Travis Bickle: Hey Elvis you made a comment awhile back saying something to the effect, "not everybody thinks The Beatles are great". Well Mr Presley I have a question for you, then why did you sing and record their songs? ; P

Hey Jude - The King

To the tune of Achy Breaky Heart

Spacebar Master Hand

You can tell the world I'm nutty as a squirrel
You can burn my chessboard when I'm gone
Or you can tell your friends the patzer that I've been

And laugh and joke about me on the phone

You can tell my quads my thinking is at odds
With anyone who ever played this game
Or you can tell my Fritz that I'm no good at blitz
And Rybka just can't help me, I'm so lame.

But don't tell my hand, my spacebar master hand
I just don't think he'd understand
And if you tell my hand, my spacebar master hand
He might reach up and slap this man
Oooooooooooohhhhhhh

You can tell Pogo I'm only a bozo
Or you can tell her dog to bite my leg
Or tell her husband Pete on Facebook or a tweet
He never really liked me anyway

Oh tell your Aunt Louise, tell anything you please
Tell her that I can't think beyond one ply
Oh you can tell my eyes I just can't analyze
If it wasn't for Stockfish I would die.

But don't tell my hand, my spacebar master hand
I just don't think he'd understand
And if you tell my hand, my spacebar master hand
He might reach up and slap this man
Oooooooooooohhhhhhh

But don't tell my hand, my spacebar master hand
I just don't think he'd understand
And if you tell my hand, my spacebar master hand
He might reach up and slap this man
Oooooooooooohhhhhhh

Don't tell my hand, my spacebar master hand,
He might reach up and slap this man.
Ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhh

Oct-04-10  Travis Bickle: Hey Elvis I didn't know you made an appearance at the Giants game last night. Too bad the Bears didn't.
