<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. Game Collection: 1975 World Junior chess championship
2. Ongoing edits Vladimir Ostrogsky
3. Bio Adolf Zytogorski
4. Complete the Olympiad
5. Bio Lorenz Maximilian Drabke
7. Baden-Baden (1870)
11. Karl Mayet
12. Smbat Lputian

   Oct-17-25 K de Kruif vs P R Plant, 2001

OhioChessFan: "Kees To Success"

   Oct-17-25 Klovans vs Tal, 1951

OhioChessFan: A little help with the pun?

   Oct-16-25 Chessgames - Politics

OhioChessFan: <aw: The justification -- such as it is -- for laws against sexual interaction between an adult and a so-called minor is *precautionary*. (That's opinion.)> IIRC, their original justification was a tool to use against men who'd impregnate a minor and skip town. I don't ...

   Oct-16-25 Karpov vs G Needleman, 2005

OhioChessFan: "Needleman and the Damage Done"

   Oct-16-25 K de Kruif vs A Horton-Kitchlew, 2001

OhioChessFan: We could use a lot more games with those first moves.

   Oct-15-25 Chessgames - Sports

OhioChessFan: Hunter Greene had a two hitter this year that was just ridiculous. I don't know how the opposition got those hits. I recall watching on TV Dwight Gooden having one of those games he had complete control of his curveball. He'd have one or two a year and it was almost comical. ...

   Oct-14-25 S Takacs vs Alekhine, 1927

OhioChessFan: Qb1/d3 makes a bad impression. Throwing a tempo away to Alekhine has the expected results.

   Oct-14-25 F Oro vs Carlsen, 2024

OhioChessFan: "Faustian Bargain"

   Oct-13-25 F de Cresce El Debs vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2012

OhioChessFan: Amusing pun, great game.

   Oct-10-25 Knaak vs Velimirovic, 1972
