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-15-13  Travis Bickle: I installed ...it's working like a Champ! ; P

1 last question. Do I have to install that patch or was it installed when I downloaded this program?

Thanks, Travis

Jan-15-13  chessmoron: It's already installed.

  chancho: <WannaBe> how do you get rid of empty folders in the comp?
Jan-16-13
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <chancho> right click on that folder, select delete.

Right click on your trash/recycle bin, select Empty.

In theory, this will delete them, but any computer forensic expert will (still) be able to retrieve them.

  chancho: <WannaBe> I tried that.

It says it could not find the program, and yet it is still there.

Maybe it's malware?

  WannaBe: <chancho> I am guessing you are logged in as an user who have administrative rights to that PC, are you running XP/Vista/Win7/Win8?

Does the folder have non-english characters? Sometimes this will cause problems.

If the folder was/is in use (e.g. opened) the system will not let you delete it. (Sometimes, your OS don't know you've already closed that folder...)

Reboot your PC, and try to delete it again.

  perfidious: So much for the easy part of the road trip-on to Chitown and Memphis. The way Lakers have played on the road....ugh.

  WannaBe: The Flakers are 6 games under .500, 3 games out of 8th playoff slot, and 4.5 games away from Western Conference last place Suns...

Next year.

  WannaBe: 20 to 17, Chicago ahead, the home team missed a shot, three Lakers around the basket, and who gets the rebound and the easy put back bucket???

Un-freakin'-bee-leee-able.

Next year.

  WannaBe: Pau forced up an ugly shot, when a teammate was feet away wide open, then tried to beat the shot clock by hoisting a 3, and that was blocked by Noah.

I still don't see this team doing double screen or a simple back-door cut to the basket... Heck, run a pick-n-roll!!

Next year...

  WannaBe: With the (quarter's) clock running down, instead of putting up a shot, the Flakers passed the ball, as the buzzard sounds...

I really feel for Mike D'Antonio, you can only scream and yell at these multi-millionairs so much.

Can't (really) bench them, the Buss family are paying them a ton of money, and sitting on the pine drinking Gatorade is not going the Busses very happy.

But from what I can see on the court, I'd rather we trade everyone, get high Lottery picks, and go through 3 years of rebuilding.

Trade everyone, even the hotdog seller. Trade the hotdog seller to the Clippers. :-)

  perfidious: Chicago to Memphis: nice, easy drive down I-55 (or 57 to 55, if you like). Ten hours or so.
