Official site: http:// Live games: http://www.nrk.no/sport/sjakk/ Alternative live games: http://worldchess.com/broadcasts/eu... ***Hall of Fame*** chessmoron chessforum <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. Things To Look At: 1.

Don't make people look for what you ...      Jan-15-26 Julien Song    OhioChessFan: 90 minute games today and tomorrow. Next day the rapids. Fourth day the blitz. Am I the only one with no audio on the chess.com stream?      Jan-15-26 Chessgames - Music   OhioChessFan: Do yourself a favor and spend three minutes listening to this nice flute driven piece. Nestor Torres-Cute https://youtu.be/Eor1meJSZPs?si=duk...      Jan-14-26 Kibitzer's Café    OhioChessFan: <kl: Today for the first time ever I played a vlack knight to c8> I'm impressed you could keep up with that fact.      Jan-14-26 C Gilberg vs Dickson, 1866    OhioChessFan: <sfod: <jn> couldn't even grant a one-day reprieve for us before he *ruined* the original pun! Talk about raining on the parade.> Thought the same thing.      Jan-13-26 J Krejcik vs J Thirring, 1898   OhioChessFan: "Thirring Victory"      Jan-10-26 J Cesena vs J Dyke, 1979    OhioChessFan: Terrific pun.      Jan-09-26 Milwaukee Chess Club vs Charles City Chess Club, 1876   OhioChessFan: 15. Rd1 is a wasted tempo. I assume White was trying to outnumber the defenders of d5 but missed the skewer Qc6. In any case, as <tsv> said years ago, the Rook needs to stay on the f file.

First I cannot understand his meandering gibberish, and second I am bewildered as to his motivation for posting messages like those on a chess site. It is a great mystery of the universe why they are seemingly so popular. For the longest time, I thought he was a computer program and it was all an inside joke for analysts writing code. Now it is just more proof that this site harbors some very strange people. :-) Aug-16-11    OhioChessFan: <tps: First I cannot understand his meandering gibberish,> That's the point. <and second I am bewildered as to his motivation for posting messages like those on a chess site. It is a great mystery of the universe why they are seemingly so popular.> I wish he'd come out of character sometimes. He has some chess skills and analysis ability. I'd like to see it. That said, I started off not getting it, and not getting why others liked it. Now I'm pretty much a full fledged fan. <Now it is just more proof that this site harbors some very strange people.> I think that was QED long ago.
