| | OhioChessFan: ** Final Update **
<OhioChessFan> managed to escape the evil clutches of his employer at 4AM and discover that <WinKing> has won a Triple Crown. He took a silver in the other ranker, won by <Switch>, who added 2 silvers and a bronze. <offramp> had 2 silvers, <Penguincw> had a silver and a bronze, <sea otter> had 3 bronze, and <wordfunph> had a bronze. <chessmoron> and <GE> waited until the last round to hit a #1, so they got rid of the remaining 0's on our scoreboard, which had become a bit of an embarrassment. Thanks to <GE> for scoring and all the contestants for participating. |

 | | Penguincw: Woo, I got 2 medals. Anyway, thanks to all for making this contest possible, and hope to see you soon (Dortmund, Biel or Sinquefield I guess). |
|
| Jun-17-17 | | WinKing: Thanks for a well run contest <Golden Executive> & thanks to <OhioChessFan> for hosting this prestigious event. Congratulations to all of those fortunate enough to win a medal! I had the opportunity, once again, to duel it out with <SwitchingQuylthulg> one of the best players in this 'moves prediction' contest. This time I was the one lucky enough to get the better of it. Next time, if there is one, it may have a different ending. I salute you <Switch> on a great contest! Look forward to seeing you all at the next event! |
|
| Jun-17-17 | | WinKing: <chessmoron> if you can find the time it would be great if you could update the Hall of Fame stats. I'm trying to keep up with everything in my forum but the stats I have are pretty outdated - thanks. |

| Jun-19-17 | | lostemperor: Thanks <chessmoron> and <OhioChessFan> |

 | | Fusilli: Another useful endgame concept, which shows up in actual play more than most people think, is that you can't win with king, a bishop and rook pawn versus king if the bishop does not run on squares of the same color as the pawn's promotion square and the defending king manages to reach the promotion square. I benefited from that fact in this game (not in this database): Benedict Smail v Mariano Sana, US Open 2009

| Jul-02-17 | | cormier: <OCF> God is a very good judge, the best of best, if he has to judge, we live a day at a time therefore we may be judge one day at a time, yet the church won't be judge, it will not be necessary ... live long and prosper ..... ths G “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1). “For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming? For ye are our glory and joy” (1 Thessalonians 2:19, 20). i hope it's usefull; http://www.christianitytoday.com/pa... |

| | OhioChessFan: Way behind: Thanks for The Who tune, <Travis>. Interesting ESPN article <WannaBet>. One of those endgames that really aren't "logical" but important to know, <Fusilli>, of course the middle game must be played with one eye on that possible ending. Thank you <cormier>. |
|
| Jul-12-17 | | chessmoron: <OCF> Let's do Dortmund. |
|
| Jul-13-17 | | Golden Executive: A belated thanks to <OCF> for hosting the show, a great one as usual. Also, a belated congratulations to all the medal winners, particularly to <WinKing> on winning an amazing Triple Crown!. See you gals and guys in a few days for Dortmund 2017! |
