<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-12-25 Chessgames - Politics

OhioChessFan: <Integ: How do we fix this> What's the problem? They'll vote for Democrats next election. All is well.

   Oct-10-25 Knaak vs Velimirovic, 1972

OhioChessFan: Amusing pun.

   Oct-09-25 Lasker vs Capablanca, 1935

OhioChessFan: 66YO Lasker taking it to Capa... unbelievable. Among the usual suspects for GOAT, I think Lasker is the most unappreciated.

   Oct-09-25 Rodan Keiter

OhioChessFan: Excuse me, Paul Bunyan never fought Rodan.

   Oct-08-25 C Shock vs P Rohwer, 1991

OhioChessFan: "It Was a Dark and Stormy Knight"

   Oct-08-25 offramp chessforum

OhioChessFan: <The rain, in big drops, began to descend, and the thunder-peals, with louder and more deafening crash, to shake the zenith, till the long-protracted war, echoing from cavern to cavern, died, in indistinct murmurs, amidst the far-extended chain of mountains> Sounds like ...

   Oct-07-25 Chessgames - Sports

OhioChessFan: Dave Roberts constantly makes impossibly bad in game decisions.

   Oct-04-25 Topalov vs Kasparov, 1995

OhioChessFan: Funny pun, nice game.

   Oct-01-25 Fusilli chessforum

OhioChessFan: Sorry, I missed this request and in the meantime, I forgot the source. I get a lot of puzzles as YouTube suggested videos and think that was the source.

Jul-05-13		TheFocus: Remember this <AJ>: if you keep the door locked to everyone, the only one crapping on your carpet is... YOU.

Jul-07-13		Travis Bickle: Hey Elvis, here you are admitting you like The Beatles! ; P '68 Comeback Special http://youtu.be/kuXfJvwe23o

Jul-09-13		waustad: <http://www.foxsportsohio.com/fox-sp...> Perhaps he could get 2 each from the Browns, Indians and Cavs. The Browns won the championship often while I was a kid, but the other teams haven't quite gotten there.

Jul-11-13		OhioChessFan: http://afeatheradrift.files.wordpre...

Jul-12-13		twinlark: Hi <Ohio>. If you could: Timur Gareev

Jul-12-13		twinlark: Also: Alexander Onischuk

Jul-13-13		twinlark: Thanks <Ohio>.

Jul-13-13		Travis Bickle: Hey Elvis here's a pretty good song by The Who with Ringo Starr's son Zack on the drums. ; P http://youtu.be/NsmBT8GqUnc - (From The Concert for New York 2001)

Jul-16-13		twinlark: Another, if you could: Ray Robson

Jul-17-13		Big Bio: <Ohio> I had to reorganise this one as the chronological narrative style eventually broke down completely, making the bio all but unreadable. Restructuring it into sections fixed the readability aspect, I feel, and also highlighted a few area of information deficit which have now been remedied. Gata Kamsky yrs Anthrax

Jul-18-13		OhioChessFan: <He began his chess career in Russia, including him defeating former Candidate GM Mark Taimanov > I can't decide what case that "him" is, but I have a sense it might should be "his".

Jul-19-13		Travis Bickle: Hey Elvis, I must admit you were quite the ladies man! You & Ann Margret? ; P http://youtu.be/lhFrSwSIgc4

Jul-19-13		jessicafischerqueen: A photo of "Heavy Early"! heh

Jul-19-13		jessicafischerqueen: <BIG BIO> I don't want to step on <Ohio's> toes, as too many Ohioizers can spoil the whole state. I'll wait till he's done, except for this one note for now, since I had trouble understanding this at first- in the categories section, I would change <Age> to <Junior>. "Age" seems a little vague or confusing? It confused me anyway.

Jul-19-13		Big Bio: <Jess> <I would change <Age> to <Junior>. "Age" seems a little vague or confusing? It confused me anyway.> I could change them all, as just about every one of my Big Bios uses <[[Age]]> subdivisions within <Championship> categories. Problem is there are two pre-"adult" categories. There is the World (also Continental and National) Junior Championship which is held annually to determine the U20 champion of the world, while there are also the annual Youth Championships (plural), which determines the champion of each age group, from U8 to U18 in both sexes. In other words, "Junior" has a specialised connotation when it comes to FIDE-ruled chess. I suppose I could substitute <[[Youth]]> and <[[Junior]]> for <[[Age]]>, as applicable.

Jul-19-13		Big Bio: <Ohio> Concerning "him" or "his". Actually, they both sound wrong to me. Maybe I'll just restructure the sentence. yr bubonic buddy

Jul-19-13		jessicafischerqueen: I thought you might like A Tulip.

Jul-19-13		twinlark: I'll add to the bouquet with a Rose.

Jul-21-13		OhioChessFan: I got to tell you TBone, Ann Margaret could really shake it. Never heard that before chancho. A real fusion sound.

Jul-22-13		OhioChessFan: <chessmoron> is Dortmund on?

Jul-23-13		chancho: United Future Organization The Sixth Sense http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trDn...
