WannaBe: <keypusher> In a nutshell, Monte Carlo simulation is used in insurance, life, auto, home <A LOT>. It is also used in retirement simulation, e.g. how much saving you already have, male/female life expectancy, expected returning and amount withdrawn each year. Also some ...

WannaBe: Re: Star Trek Academy <WannaBe: 12m in. Not impressed> So, I did not finish episode one, it's still in my queue, but I did manage to read some of the reviews... And the reviews have not been kind. Some even compared episodes 1 and 2 (released the same day) to the very much ...

WannaBe: So, the Tata Steel blitz were held in India, and players have 6 days to fly to NED for the next (or 2026 first) major event... What is the flight path? Here are some ideas: https://www.flightroutes.com/CCU-AMS

  WannaBe: If you've seen the neighbourhood around USC, I'd take online (app) classes too!

If you've seen the neighbourhood around UCLA, I'd hangout around Westwood!! =)

Mar-27-12  Jim Bartle: Back when I was in college, we all thought USC students didn't even have to go to class, it was all fun. I guess it's improved in quality in past decades.
Mar-27-12  NakoSonorense: What <WannaBe> said. I was in Westwood last week. It hasn't changed a bit. I miss it. =(

Mar-28-12  twinlark: Hope my joke on the Chinese Championship page last night didn't offend. I was wondering why you asked though.

Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <twinlark> What jokes? I was fast asleep when you made/posted them on the Championship pages. (I was really tired, plus it was storming rain here in NorCal.)

And what did I ask? I really don't even remember asking any question(s)? Or did you post that previous message in the wrong forum? =)

Interesting, you can fly on Emirates Airways, and be served alcohol, and the longest flight, by hour, is actually shorter by mileage, some 800 some-odd miles. (#1 vs. #2)

Mar-28-12  twinlark: About why there's a Women's Chinese Championship?
Mar-28-12
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <twinlark> Oh!! This one?

< twinlark: <WannaBe: Wait, can someone explain to me why there is a women's section??> I consulted the oracles on this one, and the Encyclopedia Britannica, not to mention the ancient Chinese archives, and the Vast Plains of Google, and the nearest approximation of the reason I could find was to determine the female champion of China, with the mandatory Polgar/Hou exemption applied to confuse the masses in case they ever threatened to understand what was happening in the world.>

Yeah, it offended me sooooooo much, that I promptly forgot you even posted it! =)

No, actually, I had a rather good chuckle over it. It's too bad you didn't consult Nostradamus, perhaps he would explain it better.

Mar-28-12  twinlark: I did but he was in a bad mood.
