WannaBe: Just raise the minimum wage to $100/hour end hunger, homelessness, and people being poor. Everyone will have plenty of money to buy homes and feed family. I'm ready to receive my Nobel Prize in Economics in 2026. If that doesn't fix the problem, raise min wage to $1,000/hour.

WannaBe: Observed something weird. Using W11, Chrome Version 141.0.7390.108 (Official Build) (64-bit) the divide line between kibitz'n are some normal thin-ness, while others are randomly a bit thicker. Not a big deal, just want to comment on this. (both regular mode and incog mode)

  jessicafischerqueen: Gentlemen- I have as much respect for <Mal> as the rest of you believe me- but he has already won two Caissars this year- and two last year-

Actually I think he has a trunk full of them.

And why not?

He is clearly the Chess Godfather of this site, and likely deserves, purely on his own merits, to win every single category every single year.

He almost does anyway.

I'm just suggesting we give others a chance to get a few awards too?

There are people here who are also very well informed on chess who also deserve recognition for the great service they have done this website with that knowledge-

Such as <Achieve>, for example.

I remind you that we are allowed to "change our votes" before the deadline.

I know because I changed mine frequently last year even though <WannaBe> almost killed me for it but it's still the rule.
