<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. Carl Mayet
12. Smbat Lputian
13. Brian Flowers

Jun-11-06		OhioChessFan: <Chessmoron>, I don't understand the request. Are you wanting a Black to move puzzle?

Jun-11-06		Open Defence: yeah Rh6 geez did i post Rh3 ? must have been late man...

Jun-11-06		chessmoron: <OhioChessFan: Are you wanting a Black to move puzzle?> Yep.

Jun-11-06		chessmoron: Here's one of my own games: click for larger view Black to mate in 3. (Black's turn) <other possibilities is fine with me, too>

Jun-12-06		OhioChessFan: A call for help. I am writing a story on the City of Moscow page, and need someone with Russian 101 knowledge to help me out a little. I am looking for words Kaspy's mother is going to call him, like dear, sweetheart, child, my love, etc. And there's also a middle name they sometimes use, something like Garry Kimmovich. Thanks for any input.

Jun-12-06		tpstar: In The Kramniad, Garry's Mom refers to our hero as "Garry Garry" "my child" "hon" "Son" "the fruit of our labor" (get it?) and "Child of change." At times he is respectfully denoted as Garry Kimovich, whereas Ares makes a point to always use Harry Weinstein. Remember Garry's Mom quotes Eminem, Gorillaz, 10,000 Maniacs, Spice Girls and the Cure. ;>D Russian for boy = "malchik" Good luck with your project. =)

Jun-15-06		chessmoron: Elvis tops 2006 Forbes' list of dead celebs!

Jun-18-06		OhioChessFan: <Chessmoron> At first glance, Qf1 looks like the first move.

Jun-18-06		chessmoron: <OCF> 1...Qh6 2. exf5-Qb6+ 3. Kxa4-Qb4#

Jul-01-06		you vs yourself: It was over Radjabov's win in Linares: http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail...

Jul-01-06		erasmus: <OhioChessFan> It was the Hoogovens (Corus) Tournament of 2000, where Morozevich beat Nikolic in the last round. Morozevich vs P Nikolic, 2000 From the CM series: <The top section of this annual chess festival was again won by Kasparov, but a likely championship contender emerged in youthful Alexander Morozevich, who finished fifth in a field of 14 grandmasters. This last round effort earned Morozevich the daily spectators' prize but angered Kasparov, who felt he was more deserving. Kasparov thus left the windy seaside resort in a foul mood, sensing that he was treated with a lack of respect.>

Jul-02-06		OhioChessFan: Great stuff, <you vs yourself> and <erasmus> Two for the price of one. I will use both of those in my City of Moscow story. Thanks to both.

Jul-03-06		OhioChessFan: Another Black to play puzzle. From a Grandmaster game: click for larger view Black to play and win (1 point) What did Black play in the game? (2 points) Who was Black? (3 points)

Jul-03-06		Open Defence: 1..Bg1 ?!

Jul-03-06		Open Defence: <Elvis tops 2006 Forbes' list of dead celebs!> but he lives right ?

Jul-03-06		OhioChessFan: <Open Defence> gets 1 point for the move, and 10 points for the Elvis tribute.

Jul-03-06		chessmoron: Speaking of the King of Rock, Elvis, what's your favorite song(s) by the Rock legend?

Jul-03-06		themadhair: I thought I recognized the game as this one (S Praytino vs D Juswanto, 2001) but I believe it was the immortal 'why did black resign game' that is this (Von Popiel vs G Marco, 1902).

Jul-03-06		OhioChessFan: 1. Jailhouse Rock 2. If I Get Home on Christmas Day 3. Suspicious Minds 4. Milk Cow Blues Boogie 5. Peace in the Valley 6. That's All Right 7. Walkin In a Winter Wonderland 8. Burnin Love 9. Mystery Train 10. Heartbreak Hotel This was off the top of my head. I probably under-represented gospel and Christmas songs.

Jul-03-06		OhioChessFan: 3 points to <themadhair>

Jul-04-06		Open Defence: The #1 Swooner by the King is "Are you lonesome tonight".... The #1 reality check is "In the ghetto" The #1 fun song "Hound Dog" great to dance to.... The #1 rockabilly song "Blue Moon of Kentucky"

Jul-06-06		OhioChessFan: Answer to July 3 problem: click for larger view Black to play and win. What did Black play? Who was Black? The correct move is Bg1. Black resigned. Black was Marco, in the game Von Popiel-Marco 1902, as linked by <themadhair> above.

Jul-06-06		OhioChessFan: Another interesting problem: click for larger view White to play and mate in 3.

Jul-06-06		chessmoron: 1. g8=N-b5 2. Ne7-Kxb4 3. Nc6#

Jul-09-06		OhioChessFan: Per the puzzle of July 6, <chessmoron> has the correct answer immediately following. This puzzle is by Sam Loyd: click for larger view White to play and mate in 3
