 | | OhioChessFan: As we await with trembling hands and pounding hearts, my thanks to <WinKing> for pulling this off. No way I could have. And I meant no insult to <chessmoron> as I didn't notice until the proceedings had started that he wasn't on board and it seemed too late then to pull the plug. |

 | | juan31: Thanks to <WinKing and OhioChessFan> congratulations to all. |
|
| Jul-07-19 | | Count Wedgemore: Another great contest. Thanks to <WinKing> for the scorekeeping in <chessmoron>'s absence (perhaps he's at that "Chess Club" that's sometimes been talked about here :=), and once again a big thanks to <OCF> for his phenomenal recaps. Always a pleasure! Congratulations to <lostemperor> and <WinKing> for their double golds. See you all next time, which I hope will be soon. |
|
| Jul-07-19 | | chessmoron: This is unacceptable. This is un-sanctioned tournament. All results will be nullified immediately. https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons... |
|
| Jul-07-19 | | WinKing: Yeah sure, good timing <chessmoron> show up when the tournament is over. :) The last we heard from you was your Birthday on June 15th.. Hope you had a nice 3 week celebration. p.s. I'll send you a bill for my scorekeeping of this tournament. ;) |
|
| Jul-07-19 | | WinKing: I gotta say keeping score & trying to play this game with your sanity in tact is tough. I don't blame <chessmoron> for taking a little time off. Special thanks to <OhioChessFan> being a great host & keeping us all entertained with his recaps while we were playing. Congratulations to all of those fortunate enough to bring home a medal or two! <lostemperor>, that was a dazzling display hitting no less than 5 exacts & 9 unders in the Moves Ranker.
Had you not missed the 1st round I honestly believe you would have a 'triple crown' in your possession instead of just the 'double crown'. I thought I played well but you played better. Kudos to you! Hope to see all of you at the next contest whenever that may be. |

 | | OhioChessFan: ** Final Recap **
It was a mad rush to the finish, with <lostemperor> and <WinKing> winning 2 golds each. Both of them ate the chocolate candy inside the gold foil wrappers and then tried to fold the foil back into shape. In a shocking finish, <OhioChessFan> repeatedly berated <Winky> for some irrelevant scoring mistakes. <Winky> started to spit some of his chocolate at <OCF>, but decided to enjoy the fruits of his labor, and just swallowed it instead. Meanwhile, <chessmoron> showed up as the janitors were sweeping up the playing arena floor, and ran to the microphone, screaming that the results won't count. Everyone was stunned into silence, until <Count Wedgemore> pointed out the ticket stub from the "Chess Club" in <cm's> pocket. <chessmoron> then quietly slipped away, mumbling about what kind of losers would prefer to predict chess games as opposed to visit the "Chess Club", but not before <OCF> took this actual live action photo. http://www.quickmeme.com/img/57/570... Thanks to <WinKing> for everything, thanks to everyone for playing, and best wishes to <chessmoron> for his month long birthday celebration at the "Chess Club". |
