<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

  OhioChessFan: HOFer <chessmoron> holds on to his lead in the Moves Ranker, as <OhioChessFan> still throws a fit that Gelfand didn't play one more move. HOFer <penguincw> now holds the lead in Bonus Ranker and Moves + Bonus Ranker. <lostemperor> joined the Gang of Four atop the Moves Ranker, as <OhioChessFan> still pouts that Gelfand didn't play one more move.

  OhioChessFan: In game update:
Ivanchuk-Gelfand an 18 move draw. (No truth to the rumors <Switch> bribed the players in hopes of moving forward in the ChessBookie) Grishuk-Carlsen was a23 move draw. Kramnik is better against Radja, and Svidler is better against Aronian.
Mar-28-13

  OhioChessFan: And both players convert. Kramnik wins in 37 and Svidler in 41.
Mar-28-13
Premium Chessgames Member
  OhioChessFan: <Kramnik wins in 37 >

No truth to the rumor <OhioChessFan> is going to try bribing losing players to play one more move.
