<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:

OhioChessFan: <HMM: I leaned in where the guy and his wife were sitting and said "I'm sorry. We all didn't vote for Donald Trump."> Whew, what a cuck. 😂 This should be in The Virtue Signalling Hall of Fame. lolz, I'm dying.

OhioChessFan: <TOP 10 SITAR SONGS OF ALL TIME> Duh. I never realized that was a sitar in Hooked on a Feeling. B. J. Thomas' voice is the most underrated in all pop music. Here's another of his greats. Rock and Roll Lullabye https://youtu.be/r7EvoW3aCKk?si=xKs...

   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.

   Jan-06-26 Atterdag chessforum

OhioChessFan: I forgot the different understanding of right, left, liberal, conservative in different countries. Even within the US, they don't mean the same thing as they did 30 years ago.

   Jan-01-26 Geoff Chandler

OhioChessFan: In my mind, I was outraged at the obvious plagiarism of Chernev in the Chess Review's first article. But I was mollified to quickly discover the article was written by Chernev himself.
