<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-18-25 Chessgames - Politics

OhioChessFan: <Retire: Democrats love to paint themselves into these corners! Still, if they want a SBW for 2028, there's always Stacey Abrams.> I think she counts as a Double.

   Oct-18-25 G Skare vs M Jevtic, 2010

OhioChessFan: "Skare Tactics"

   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 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.

Jan-29-14		jessicafischerqueen: Alois Suess heh...

Jan-30-14		OhioChessFan: User: hms123 favorite player.

Jan-30-14		hms123: <OCF> Thanks, but....?

Jan-30-14		john barleycorn: reposting it here as closing time for the bid is approching <Jan-30-14 john barleycorn: Dear <OhioChessFan> I really appreciate your offer and it shows that you are a true connoisseur. However, I received several emails from Rex S. who entered the bidding. His latest offer includes the fully restored "TABLES OF LAW" with Moses fingerprints also restored. Can you reconsider your offer?>

Jan-30-14		hms123: <OCF> I remembered that there was some really strange young woman that I had as a favorite player as a joke. I can't remember her name though. *** The Internet Wayback Machine comes to the rescue: <<My Favorite Player <Lauren S Hwang and her best game L S Hwang vs H Kim, 2005>>>

Jan-30-14		OhioChessFan: I was referencing Alois Suess as in Dr.

Jan-30-14		hms123: <OCF> Oh well...close but no cigar.

Jan-31-14		jessicafischerqueen: <H> Good heavens how could you miss a reference to your own hat? Also I'd like to inform on all of the rave kids in the 90s who wore your hat whilst blocked up on all manner of heinous chemicals. What's wrong with just sitting in your basement with a jug of <Matted Elk>? I don't hold with these "newfangled" ideas.

Jan-31-14		jessicafischerqueen: <H> <close> No. ahahHAHAHAHA Have you been getting in to the "Matted Elk" more now since you've retired? If so, I salute you. And yes I'm very jealous you've retired when I still have to work for "the man."

Jan-31-14		hms123: <Jess> You have caught me out. Too much Matted Elk was indeed the issue. <Hats> and Horns!

Jan-31-14		OhioChessFan: Why exactly <did> all those kids wear that hat?

Jan-31-14		Travis Bickle: Elvis, you have a copy on the unedited ScarJo commercial where she insults huge sponsors Coke & Pepsi... http://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...

Jan-31-14		visayanbraindoctor: <OhioChessFan> <<Doctor Walks 6 Miles Through Snow Storm To Perform Emergency Brain Surgery > http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/...> A truly dedicated doctor if he did that without getting paid for it (a charity patient) and walking to hospitals is not part of his normal routine. <I guess you've done some walking to surgeries too.> For my part I don't have a car and I normally walk to hospitals or take a PUV. I usually walk two kilometers a day, often more. If you do it under a hot blazing tropical sun, it can be exhausting and dangerous. So you have to pace yourself properly, and take a break at times, resting at a fast-food before commencing walking again.

Jan-31-14		WCC Editing Project: CURRENT DRAFT UNDER INSPECTION FOR PROMOTION:Game Collection: WCC: Lasker-Capablanca 1921 DUE DATE- THE DAY I WILL SUBMIT THIS DRAFT TO <Daniel>: February 24th. <Promotion of Drafts to Official WCC Pages> In the future we will create a <one week> period during which we can publicly examine a given draft selected for the next promotion. I will always post this information at the top of our Profile, listing the "due date," the day on which I will submit the draft to <Daniel>. I will also post this information in our WCC forum, and I will also post this information in the fora of our <Soviet Sports Committee>: <Karpova>, <OhioChessFan>, and <Boomie>. In the case of Game Collection: WCC: Lasker-Capablanca 1921, which is our current draft selected for the next promotion, we will have a longer time for public examination because I am going on vacation to Canada. So, in the case of the current draft, I will submit it to <Daniel> no earlier than <Feb. 24th>.

Feb-04-14		WannaBe: Since you asked about cell phones: http://money.cnn.com/2014/02/04/tec...

Feb-06-14		twinlark: If you could: Gyula Sax

Feb-07-14		twinlark: Bewdy cobber! Yer blood's worth bottlin'.

Feb-09-14		twinlark: Thanks for checking again. I've amended it.

Feb-25-14		WCC Editing Project: CURRENT DRAFT UNDER INSPECTION FOR PROMOTION: Game Collection: WCC: FIDE WCC Tournament 1948 DUE DATE- THE DAY I WILL SUBMIT THIS DRAFT TO <Daniel>: March 16th.

Mar-04-14		Penguincw: I know there's still over a week to go, but you're hosting the Candidates Match, right?

Mar-07-14		PinnedPiece: Favorites from CPAC: 1) Rand Paul 2) Ted Cruz 3) Rick Perry 4) Chris Cristie .

Mar-07-14		Jim Bartle: Great news for Democrats! Just wait until they begin investigating how Perry can afford his new million-dollar home at Round Top.

Mar-08-14		PinnedPiece: Wow, I wasn't too far off. Too bad we weren't hosting a GOP candidate ranking game here! <Sen. Rand Paul demolished his competition in the 2014 Washington Times/CPAC presidential preference straw poll on Saturday, winning 31 percent of the vote — nearly three times the total of second-place Sen. Ted Cruz. ... 11 percent was a big improvement for the freshman senator, who won just 4 percent in last year’s straw poll. Neurosurgeon Ben Carson was third with 9 percent and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was fourth with 8 percent in results that signal growing discontent with the GOP establishment in Washington. Read more: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news... > Third place Dr. Ben Carson!!!! That is a pleasant surprise to me. Ticket suggestion: Paul-Carson .

Mar-09-14		OhioChessFan: Yeah, Carson has caught my attention. I am rather glad Christie has the bridge problems since I would assuredly not vote for him for dog catcher, much less President.
