not exactly.> Possible reason for submit correction slip with more information other able to find,

I looked up this game Stollar vs A Serebrisky, 1945 because I had it in my database and was looking whether kibitzing existed. Please look at the game and the comments <perfidious> and I made there. Then I noticed due to <perfidious> remark the mistake/difference in score. I submitted the correction.

The admins have a lot to do and your experience was not unusual so please don't be too frustrated. Both the queue to add games and the queue to correct game scores are backed up and it can take months to handle submissions. Also, I think some get stuck in the system, for reasons that have been discussed before on this forum.

My last correction was similar to yours, but a bit different in that I requested a score change based exclusively on an argument from the internal logic of the game. (A given move was obviously wrong and there was another obvious candidate.) It took about 6 months but they made the change.

You have a strong "in-game argument" for a score correction plus external evidence in the form of a different, much more plausible game score appearing in another database of yours. My guess is that will be sufficient proof for them, but perhaps not-- Daniel is careful about making these changes. Give it time?

Probably the most annoying kind is when you have to different books that give different ones ... that can take forever to resolve.

I submitted one just the other day ... V G Kirillov vs Karpov, 1962.

I made a comment on the game, I ALSO submitted a correction slip!

Its pretty obvious that the move in the game is incorrect. Its corrected in the book that I cite, the engine also chooses the move in the chess book. I am sure - in time - logic will triumph and that it will be updated. (Its actually kind of amazing, even a very young Karpov plays a lot of the machine moves the majority of the time.)

So if things seem impossibly screwed up, that's definitely an approach to consider. It's hard to offer very specific help in such a situations because the problem is almost impossible replicate.

I remember an old cartoon in Mad Magazine which showed a business that had a box with a sign, "We care about our customers! Submit your suggestions here." ... then they showed the inside of the box, where the slips were fed straight into a paper shredder.

I assure you, the correction slip process is not like that. We have every correction that was ever submitted since day one, either in the inbox or the archive.

It's no secret that the Librarian tends to matters like wrong names, dates, and venues more often than move changes, and for good reason. We've had corrections slips with move changes that later had to be reversed. I don't want to call anybody out by name, but one person who has joined into this conversation was guilty of exactly that on at least one occasion.

The correction slips do work, the game has already been fixed ...
