<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

Nov-08-18		SwitchingQuylthulg: <juan31> Please note you have the wrong colors for games 7 through 12. -- My picks: G1: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 41 G2: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 41 G3: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 54 G4: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 54 G5: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 41 G6: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 54 G7: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 31 G8: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 54 G9: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 54 G10: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 54 G11: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 41 G12: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 41

Nov-08-18		Penguincw: Here I go. Such short notice this tournament has given us. G1: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2-1/2 30 G2: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2-1/2 45 G3: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2-1/2 40 G4: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2-1/2 60 G5: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2-1/2 50 G6: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2-1/2 35 G7: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2-1/2 45 G8: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2-1/2 55 G9: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2-1/2 40 G10: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2-1/2 45 G11: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2-1/2 50 If for any reasons the colours have been reversed, I will stick with my original predictions (i.e. Game 1 result holds regardless of who has white).

Nov-09-18		offramp: G1: Caruana - Carlsen 1-0 35 G2: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 29 G3: Caruana - Carlsen 1-0 54 G4: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 46 G5: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 78 G6: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 66 G7: Carlsen - Caruana 1-0 41 G8: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 38 G9: Carlsen - Caruana 1/2 55 G10: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 61 G11: Carlsen - Caruana 1-0 37 G12: Caruana - Carlsen 1/2 34

Nov-09-18		OhioChessFan: Hoping <juan> gets back and corrects his colors. I think it'd be fair to just flip his game numbers for games 7-12 but I leave that decision to <chessmoron> I'm really hoping we accept entries until Game 1 starts at 10AM chessgames.com time.
