<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. Karl Mayet
12. Smbat Lputian

   Jan-17-26 Chessgames - Politics

OhioChessFan: <FSR: <OCF> and fellow MAGAts will tell you Ashli and company were just peaceful, law-abiding folks who wanted to chat with their elected representatives.> <OCF: Quote me, please.> <aw,: Don't play search-thread games. Don't make people look for what you ...

   Jan-15-26 Julien Song

OhioChessFan: 90 minute games today and tomorrow. Next day the rapids. Fourth day the blitz. Am I the only one with no audio on the chess.com stream?

   Jan-15-26 Chessgames - Music

OhioChessFan: Do yourself a favor and spend three minutes listening to this nice flute driven piece. Nestor Torres-Cute https://youtu.be/Eor1meJSZPs?si=duk...

   Jan-14-26 Kibitzer's Café

OhioChessFan: <kl: Today for the first time ever I played a vlack knight to c8> I'm impressed you could keep up with that fact.

   Jan-14-26 C Gilberg vs Dickson, 1866

OhioChessFan: <sfod: <jn> couldn't even grant a one-day reprieve for us before he *ruined* the original pun! Talk about raining on the parade.> Thought the same thing.

   Jan-13-26 J Krejcik vs J Thirring, 1898

OhioChessFan: "Thirring Victory"

   Jan-10-26 J Cesena vs J Dyke, 1979

OhioChessFan: Terrific pun.

   Jan-09-26 Milwaukee Chess Club vs Charles City Chess Club, 1876

OhioChessFan: 15. Rd1 is a wasted tempo. I assume White was trying to outnumber the defenders of d5 but missed the skewer Qc6. In any case, as <tsv> said years ago, the Rook needs to stay on the f file.

   Jan-08-26 Shabalov vs E Tate, 1998

OhioChessFan: Okay, strained, but nice.

   Jan-08-26 Sergei Prokofiev

OhioChessFan: Cinderella's Waltz https://youtu.be/YbaY7p5ahZo?featur... A quick (three minutes) but nice listen.

Aug-16-19		OhioChessFan: <Fusilli> that's sad to hear. My sympathies on the loss. You can be sure any prayers offered had some impact in this lifetime and the next.

Aug-17-19		WinKing: <Ohio Chess Fan> don't forget to turn in your picks for Round 1.

Aug-17-19		OhioChessFan: Ding Liren - So 1/2 40 Aronian - Vachier-Lagrave 1/2 32 Carlsen - Giri 1-0 37 Nepomniachtchi - Anand 1/2 41 Nakamura - Caruana 0-1 24 Karjakin - Mamedyarov 1/2 36

Aug-17-19		OhioChessFan: Just snuck in. Best of luck to all contestants.

Aug-17-19		WinKing: I have posted our picks in my forum.

Aug-17-19		Golden Executive: Round 1 is underway

Aug-17-19		WinKing: I can't believe Nepomniachtchi lost(choked) his game. Even I could see the draw. Not that complicated of an ending. What was he thinking? He needs to slow down. He had all kinds of time on his clock too.

Aug-17-19		OhioChessFan: I might start flipping a coin with Carlsen. Blind luck can't possibly be worse than my recent picks of his games. Of course you expect him to win more than most people, but every time I pick a win for him, he comes up with a boring draw like today.

Aug-17-19		juan31: ROUND 2 Karjakin - Ding Liren 1-0 46 Mamedyarov - Nakamura 1/2 41 Caruana - Nepomniachtchi 1/2 39 Anand - Carlsen 1/2 38 Giri - Aronian 1/2 40 Vachier-Lagrave - So 1/2 40
