 | | OhioChessFan: ** Round 8 Recap **
An amazing round, as <WinKing> has moved to the lead in 2 Rankers. <wordfunph> holds the lead in 1, and <GE> continues his long hold on the lead in Bonus Ranker. <bubulli> has hit a #1, so only <OCF> is left with a 0 on the board. In other news, <OhioChessFan> earned The Dreaded <chessmoron> Glare for missing that round. <OCF> explained, "But moron, I am working strange hours and am not used to them." <chessmoron> glared. <OCF> continued, I am working 10-12 hours a day, and working out at the gym an hour and a half a day." <chessmoron> glared. <OCF> pleaded, "Surely you understand how life can get in the way of this contest!" <chessmoron> glared. <OCF> said, "Uhh, I think I got sick from some doughnuts I ate." <chessmoron> glared. And we're to the final round. All contestants are primed and ready. Most the Rankers are within reach of someone having a strong round and overtaking the leaders. <chessmoron> is working on his patented glare for anyone who'd have the nerve not to make their predictions this round. The excitement is palpable, and the crowd rises.......... |

 | | OhioChessFan: I know I'm in a minority, but I do prefer this contest to the Games Prediction Contest. As one example why, a gold medal for picking a grand total of 2 decisive games out of 45? Yawn. |

|
| Aug-11-17 | | wordfunph: <chessmoron and OhioChessFan> i appreciate all your effort, thanks a bunch! <all winners> cheers! |
|
| Aug-11-17 | | chessmoron: <In other news, <OhioChessFan> earned The Dreaded <chessmoron> Glare for missing that round.> What's funny is that until you mentioned it, I was not even aware that you didn't post your prediction for round 8. :D |
|
| Aug-12-17 | | WinKing: Thanks for all the hard work <chessmoron> running three contests in a row. Time for you to take in a little R&R. Thanks <Ohio Chess Fan> for recapping the rounds & hosting the event. Congratulations to all of the medalists! Special grats to <Golden Executive> & <wordfunph> each picking up a gold medal! I felt like I was up against a 'tag team' trying to win my medals. You guys made me work a little harder this time around. ;) |

 | | OhioChessFan: ** Final Recap **
<WinKing> held on to take 2 gold medals. <GE> had a firm hold of the Bonus Ranker gold and never let up. <wordfunph> held off a late charge by several others to take the #1 Ranker gold. <OhioChessFan> is breathing easy after finally hitting a #1 to get the 0's off the scoreboard, and also finding out that <chessmoron> isn't ready to dunk him. Thanks to everyone for playing, to the starters, and to <chessmoron> for scoring. It was a lot of work to hit those 3 tournaments in quick succession and it's much appreciated. |

 | | Penguincw: < OhioChessFan: I know I'm in a minority, but I do prefer this contest to the Games Prediction Contest. As one example why, a gold medal for picking a grand total of 2 decisive games out of 45? Yawn. > I think I like this contest better too. Maybe because it's I've earned more medals here, but I do like the smaller numbers (feels like a community here). Each contest is however, unique in its own way. The contest over at <GE>, well, it might be cheesy to do so, but even if you have a bad tournament, you're still in medal contention. This contest, if you've had a bad tournament, tough luck. But it happens. But since I actively participate in all 3 contests, obviously I like them all. I may have preferences, but I'm sure that's normal. |
|
Aug-12-17
 | | Penguincw: Thanks <chessmoron> for hosting another great tournament, and thanks to <OCF> for making it possible. Congrats to the winners, hope to see you next time. Normally I would ask when's the next one, but I think you should take a well deserved break now. So I'll ask later. |
|
| Aug-13-17 | | bubuli55: Congrats to the winners! And thanks OhioChessFan and chessmoron for running the show. I was up against a formidable field. I hope to do better next time. |
|
| Aug-13-17 | | Golden Executive: Thanks <chessmoron> and <OCF> for the show! Congratulations to all the winners and particularly to <WinKing> on his double-crown and on this: $$$$<Gold Leaderboard (10 Golds or more to qualify)>$$$$$ (Updated - Aug. 13, 2017)
1t. - SwitchingQuylthulg - 26G's-cm, 10G's-GE, 9G's-le, 1G-TLS <(46 Golds)> 1t. - WinKing - 32G's-cm, 11G's-GE, 2G's-le 1G-TLS <(46 Golds)> User: WinKing Wow, well, now we all know who are the guys to beat next time ;) See you all at the next contest! |
|
| Aug-15-17 | | WinKing: I have just taken the time to update chessmoron's HOF. I started from the beginning of OCF's forum the 2009 Corus tournament & went through all of the contests to make sure nothing was missed.
Took about 12 hours but I did find a few things that were missing. I have posted it in my forum. Now if we can just get <lostemperor> to up date his HOF we will be all set. <Golden Executive>'s HOF is meticulous no work needed there. |
