|
| Aug-04-13 | | Golden Executive: <WinKing>, <OhioChessFan> I picked Leko for a win for the first 3 rounds, go figure. Why I did that?. My line of thinking was: "Well, the previous tournament Leko draw (and won a game) vs the elite players (ELO 2700+), now he is facing some less strong players so he has an edge ...." Flawed!
<Aug-03-13 Whitehat1963: Last four tournaments to date: +2-3=34 Simply breathtaking!>
In order to try to measure the impact of the well known -Leko´s drawish style- here in this prediction contest, I ran a simulation of scores excluding all Leko´s games: chessmoron 46
WinKing 45
OhioChessFan 43
------------
SloVice 39
Robin01 38
Penguincw 33
wordfunph 32
PinnedPiece 27
NakoSonorense 24
Golden Executive 21
lostemperor 19
lost in space 19
twinlark 7
------------
With or without Leko, the medalists remain the same and I think is pretty fair. |

| | OhioChessFan: ♔ In Game Update ♔
Adams got a quick 14 move draw against Kramnik for the tournament win. Leko-Andreikin are playing on a while in a drawish position. Elvis is greatly interested in the Caruana-Fridman game (Gooooooo, Fridman, at least draw), a complicated French with chances on both sides. Wang Hao-Meier are using a lot of time in an even position. And Naiditsch is better against Khenkin. |
|
Aug-04-13
| | OhioChessFan: ♔ Update ♔
Leko-Andreikin drew in 37 moves. Elvis wasn't happy to see Khenkin play an extra move in a totally lost position, as Naiditsch won in 37 moves. |
|
Aug-04-13
 | | Penguincw: ♔ Last Update ♔
Caruana defeated Fridman in 63 moves.
Well I'd just like to say congratz to the winners, thanks for hosting and I'll see you next time. :) |

Mahvelous, simply mahvelous.
Congratulations to all the winners. You had to stick your neck out there some to get your score up in Dortmond 2013. Me--Happy to provide bottom padding so you look even better! . |

| | OhioChessFan: ♔ Final Update ♔
Congratulations to Hall of Famers <wordfunph> and <OhioChessFan> for winning 2 categories each. A very hard tournament to pick, and the last 2 rounds shocked me in the fighting chess displayed. Thanks to all participants, and to <chessmoron> for running the show, and to <WinKing> for stepping in at short notice. |
|
| Aug-04-13 | | WinKing: Thanks <chessmoron> for another great contest. Thanks <OhioChessFan> for hosting & keeping us informed while the tournament was in progress. Congrats to all those fortunate enough to win medals! Special kudos to <OCF> &
<wordfunph> on fine performances! Looking forward to our next encounter. |
|
| Aug-04-13 | | WinKing: I hope to have the HOF medal count for all contests updated within the next couple of days. Will leave a post here when it is completed. |
|
| Aug-05-13 | | WinKing: The Hall of Fame Gold Medal list has been updated. See my forum for details. |
|
| Aug-05-13 | | Golden Executive: Thanks <OhioChessFan> for hosting and commenting, and <chessmoron> for running . Congratulations to all the winners.!
A special mention to <wordfunph> for his “second-time-in-a-row” best performance: 5 golds from 8 available for the last two tournaments! See you guys next time. |

| Aug-07-13 | | The Last Straw: Hello everyone:
I feel very sad to announce that I may be unable to continue holding this prediction contest. A new taskload of work has taken over and I also have some important family matters to deal with. I know it has been such short time, and I have only been able to hold 2 competitions, but I still must make the change. When I first started the contest, I was completely clueless this was going to happen. If anybody would like to hold it in their forum instead, please copy all parts of my biography which are related to this contest and post a message in my forum. I will surely recognze you as the new runner of this contest.Thank you. |
|
| Aug-08-13 | | wordfunph: congrats to the winners!
thanks <OCF> <chessmoron> <WinKing> <GE> and all.. |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Ohio> I am too dumb for words really. I just now read your whole post, and where you put it and why- So I deleted the post from my forum about it. I didn't even read your post before, just got the first line off the <chessforums> page and started laughing because I liked your sentence so much. I didn't click on the link and go read the post because I didn't want to spoil the mystery of your sentence. Anyways that's why I put my post in my forum. And just now, after actually reading your post, and where you put it, I see that my post was wildly inappropriate. So clumsy, so clumsy.
Apologies to you and our dear friend.
-Jess (the clumsy) |

| | OhioChessFan: Ahh, it <was> a great line. And yeah, out of the context it was funnier than intended. But hey, there's never a problem in my mind with laughing. |
