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-10-13  chessmoron: <At least it was close this time.> When will the Flakers get their winning instinct in previous quarters rather than a last minute rally in the 4th Q?

  Check It Out: :D Sorry WannaBe, I thought td was your banker.

Are there other cool codes for symbols, like a dagger or a lion? Those could be useful when I'm losing an argument at Rogoff.

  WannaBe: <Check It Out> Still seeing a box. =(
Jan-10-13
Premium Chessgames Member
  Check It Out: Weird. When I posted it I saw the bass clef. A half hour later I went to back to look at it here: still bass clef. But now it has changed to a box for me as well.

Premium Chessgames Member
  Check It Out: Don't look now, but the treble clefs are boxes now as well.

This is perplexing.

  Check It Out: Quick! Go look at the bass clef I posted on my forum - it's there!

  Check It Out: A block?? Its still a bass clef for me.
Jan-11-13
Premium Chessgames Member
  Check It Out: Wait a minute. My work computer is a PC, and it shows the blocks, same as you. But here at home, my computer is a mac and its showing the bass clef.

  WannaBe: Tonight, Cleveland is at LA Flakers, tickets can be bought as low as $41.00 per seat. (Albeit, they are in the 300 section rafters.)

A few more loses, it will down to the (high) 30s range.

Jan-13-13  Jim Bartle: Oh now I get it. At first I thought you said you'd get paid $41.00 per game to play forward.
Jan-13-13  NakoSonorense: All you've said so far about how the Lakers keep on losing doesn't matter. You see, D'Antoni has said that the season starts tonight!

  perfidious: <Nako> Glad to hear it-now let's get on with the season! Time to show the league who's boss and all that.
Jan-15-13  Travis Bickle: Wannabe I just deleted Java 6. something from my comp because I heard it wasnt safe and of course now I can't view the games on this site, (Says I need java plug in). The question I have for you is how can I download java 7 from the net without getting more malicious garbage connected with it. Is CNET a good site to download Java from? I'd like to re-download Java 6 or 7 and then use the patch you were talking about. Thanks Travis

  WannaBe: <Travis Bickle>

Go to: http://java.com/en/download/manual.... and then select "Windows online", (You are running Win-Doze, right??)

Then on the prompt, select 'Run', and it will automatically download the appropriate version and install from Oracle.

When prompted, select 'Install', and it will download the installer and program.

It is a bit over 30 Megs, depending on if you have 32 or 64 bit system. And then just proceed as prompted.

Also, (it may be too late now, but this issue, is only Java 7, if you had 6, and did not un-install, you had nothing to worry about...)
