WannaBe: Another not important thing that I noticed, as a premium member when I visit ChessGames.com Statistics Page page, I see ads. Not that a big deal. Sure CG.com have more important things to fix.

Jan-20-12  dakgootje: Why do all those school even want mascots that have been done over and over already?

So for 'Draper (Utah) Corner Canyon High', why not do something with the name and make it the Grands of the Grants? Or the Cornerstones - and immediately shorten it to 'The Stones'.

I'd sign up for a school with a Rolling Stones-anthem, and a mascot called 'Stoned'. Goes nicely with the Highschool.

  WannaBe: Happy New Year everybody!! Welcome to the year of the Dragon!
Jan-23-12  technical draw: <Happy New Year everybody!! Welcome to the year of the Dragon!>

New Years was some weeks back. And it was the year 2012. What's this Dragon stuff anyway? Some people!

(Happy new year to you to <WannaBe>!)

  WannaBe: <technical draw> Put on your dancing Dragon costum, or else Chairman Mao will send a Dragoon of Chinamen your way. If you know what I mean! :-))
Jan-23-12  technical draw: Ha! I have Mao for breakfast!

(Actually an antidepressant MAO, Monoamine Oxidase)

  WannaBe: ♔<<<ATTENTION PLEASE>>>

Did you know, that Chessgames.com have a team on GameKnot?? Would like to join* ?? Do you like to play chess and go rah-rah for your team?! And it's free?? And we don't care about your rating!?

If so, please contact me, by posting a message here.

*Requires minimum 5 rated wins on GameKnot to join team. Does <NOT> require prem. acct. on CG and/or GK. But you must have a registered/verified name on CG and GK.

Jan-26-12  brankat: <WannaBe> <Would you let me know your preferences on moves/day and how many matches you can handle?>

Hi Jim!

In regards to m/d I prefer 5-7 days/move time controls. As it stands now I'd like to play 1 match at a time (2 games). If need be I could handle 2 matches (4 games). But not more than that.

Thanks Jimmy.

Jan-26-12  technical draw: <WannaBe> I prefer 2 days/move and I will take all the games that GK allows me to have.

  WannaBe: CG.com is having a difficult time with Tata Steel tournament, we've had 2 live game misfeeds, and now a zero to twelve draw proposition bet on the bookie page...

CG.com needs a vacation, let me take-over for a week, or two!! I am in charge of IT at my work, I know what I am doing!

  Phony Benoni: <WannaBe: ... I know what I am doing!>

That's what we're afraid of.

Jan-28-12  brankat: You may want to take over Queenalice.com, too. They have had a "maintenance work" for the last 48 hours. Can't get to my game there. I think I have a winning position, but may lose it on time :-)
Jan-28-12  brankat: <The site has experienced a severe database corruption problem, I am working hard to bring it back online.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
I expect it will take me a couple of days to restore everything.>
