<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: While I disagree with <al wazir> on much, I acknowledge he's by far the best of the bunch in argumentation.

OhioChessFan: Decent pun, first two words strike me as superfluous.
 
   Nov-14-25 McShane vs I Samunenkov, 2025
 
OhioChessFan: Nice analysis from Mikhail Golubev https://www.chess.com/blog/MikhailG...
 
   Nov-14-25 Mikhail Golubev
 
OhioChessFan: I just played over the Samunenkov game. What do you think of the Petroff in general? Do you need to be booked up on the latest lines or can you just rely on general principles?
 
   Nov-14-25 V Biliy vs V Golovach, 2003
 
OhioChessFan: Wildly entertaining game that lasted a long time with an odd material imbalance. 41...Ke5 was losing, as it gave up the skewer on the two Rooks on the long diagonal. 41...Kd7 would have been fine.

OhioChessFan: From 7 years ago, I stand corrected. 17...Kb1 18. 0-0 and White is crushing.

  OhioChessFan: ** Round 4 Summary **

<Switch> and <amw> have charged to the lead in 3 Rankers each. <juna31> and <word> share the lead in 1 Ranker. There are only three 0's left on the board, and 2 of them belong to the highly embarrassed <OCF>. <chessmoron> has been so caught up in the Olympics he can't keep his numbers straight in this contest.

Hard to believe we're already ___% of the way done with this contest (OCF's abacus broke). Can someone challenge <Switch> and <amw> ? Will <Robin> and <OCF> ever get rid of those humiliating 0's by their name? Will the Chinese invite <chessmoron> to play on their basketball team? Stay tuned for the answers to these and many more questions as our thrilling contest continues.

Never said anything about leaving, sorry to disappoint you :)

And when Palmer posts a link to "We Are Family" along with quotes from <unf>, you gotta be pretty dense not to understand that the pictures are of family members. Apparently, you didn't get it.

Aug-09-16  User not found: <OhioChessFan: <I want his family to come here> <Bureau: His family should be left alone. >

I agree there.>

Yet you keep making excuses for him.

<While you said you were going to take the links down, it appears it was the webmaster who did so.>

Yes.

<The embarrassing inability of the other side to see that there was no rules violations is symptomatic of their poor judgment in general.>

He broke the law! And why on earth would he put pictures of my family in his profile unless he wanted to cause trouble.

<But while I get that there were no rules violations, I think it was a bad idea>

It's either right or it's wrong, you can't have it both ways? As for the rest of the garbage you posted over there maybe you should ask Daniel the reason he had to stop people from posting my real name. I've been getting gay porn from a member of this site for the last 4 years and that's the nice stuff. Anyways I'm not arguing with you, you're allegiance should be to god not some insane bloke you know from the internet who's been involved in every single flame war since the beginning of chessgames dot com! Smh :)

  OhioChessFan: <TheFocus> is too much of an intellectual coward to have his public proclamations challenged. I'm right, you're wrong, next?
Aug-09-16  Keyser Soze: <ofc> your past posts on this subject were brave fair honest as one can make. You are a heck of a member. Too bad we have very few people like you left.on the old guard. Cheers.

  OhioChessFan: Thanks <Winky>

Contestants, sorry for all the uproar in the midst of our tournament. So far, I don't think it's gotten too obtrusive. If it does, I may have to address it.

  OhioChessFan: <I'll kill that little scrawny bastard with my bare hands>

How about it, <Focus> would you say that falls on the side of good or evil? Waiting...... :)

  OhioChessFan: <Keyser> I am sure you know in your <KKD> days we were sometimes majorly at odds. I have had some big dustups with <tps> in the past too. So there is no tribalism/friendship/whatever at work here. At some point you just move on and let bygones be bygones. <JFQ> could come here tomorrow and be welcome.

But in this case, the right/wrong of the matter are <SO> clear.....I really can't believe it. I simply can't believe it.

Aug-09-16  Keyser Soze: Well I was not exactly proud to go to.the mud with that individual but someone has to do that anyway. And now everybody can see I was right. Even when I left the site for a while things got even worse and that didn't stop him to talk about me Aj or keep his bullying against several members like harrylime, Travis, abdel , cm and others. This lately webmaster cyberstalking and bragging about harassment a.member in real life (calling up AMA, and he now pledges on <shams> forum that he will call up all chess federations of US ?!) is beyond sickening.

Where his friends to say about this, right?

Anyway is clear that this one individual will always find someone new to antagonize, everybody can see now..

Aug-09-16  User not found: <OhioChessFan: <I'll kill that little scrawny bastard with my bare hands> How about it, <Focus> would you say that falls on the side of good or evil? Waiting...... :)>

I'll answer that for him. How would you feel if someone was stalking you for 4 years, not on this site although that's also true but from one social media site to the next, I get gay porn every day without fail because Keyser soze is a sane person? You're another coward. Anything to say then say it directly to me. I could post what you were saying about Focus 4 years ago but he's now a very good friend, has been for years, he'll tell you that himself.

<But in this case, the right/wrong of the matter are <SO> clear.....I really can't believe it. I simply can't believe it.>

Then believe it buddy. Extra prayers for you this Sunday Mr Christian.

He's arrived..

<TheFocus: <OCF> Take your hypocrite face out of my house, Please. Don't let the door hit you in the ass.>

2013. God forgives what about you OCF? Have you been sending emails to Daniel too, I'd be shocked if you had!?
