WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

May-18-07  Resignation Trap: You are sure going to be racking up those frequent flyer miles. First Chicago, then Las Vegas, and now Canberra....
May-20-07  WarmasterKron: That's my awful record against fellow CG members extended, then. +0, -11, =3, I think.

  WannaBe: <warmasterkron> We both goofed in that game, you'll get your chance for revenge in our next one.
May-20-07  WarmasterKron: I hope so. I'm not sure 3...f5 is as bad as I made it look, though obviously 13...c6?? was rubbish.

I seem to have trouble on Gameknot, despite being rated ~1700 on another correspondence server. Perhaps it's psychological.

-Dodgers: 5 World Series
-Lakers: 9 NBA titles

The Kings, the Clippers and the Ducks are yet to win one.

  Phony Benoni: <NasoSonorense> And what about the Los Angeles Rams in 1951?
May-20-07  NakoSonorense: <Phony>, you're right. It seems that my source is not very reliable.

Never mind, <wannabe>!! :S

  WannaBe: One of my (own, personal) life's mystery have been solved, I enjoy the song "I'll take you there". Used in GM commercials, never knew who/what the group name was...

The Staple Singers! (Who later went to a more money making career by selling office supplies)

May-22-07  chesstoplay: Hey WannaBe,

Yury is still undefeated.

The hard part is...

his next game is against his good friend Gregory Kaidanov.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to meeting you Saturday morning!

May-23-07  chesstoplay: Two more local chessgames.com players will be joining us for breakfast!!

That makes 6 of us CG.com folk, Yury and Tim Just.
