ARCHIVED POSTS < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 720 OF 1118 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jun-29-14    john barleycorn: How come my move 5.Be3 is recorded but does not show up? Chessgames Challenge: The World vs Naiditsch, 2014 Jun-29-14    Annie K.: <jb> a move has to have at least 2 votes to show up. If/when somebody else also votes for it, it will show up, with 2 votes. Jun-29-14    chessgames.com: <a move has to have at least 2 votes to show up> Exactly. Somebody else voted for it and now it shows up. Jun-30-14    davide2013: I'd like to put this game in Guess the Move, as example of HOW Black should play the Alekhine: A Tarazi vs Hort, 1974 But the problem is that Black lost. I guess for time, because the position is won for Black. If I put it in Guess the Move, then it will be played as White, but White didn't play well. Is there any way to put it in Guess the Move, and make it play from the Black side? Jun-30-14    chessgames.com: <If I put it in Guess the Move, then it will be played as White, but White didn't play well. Is there any way to put it in Guess the Move, and make it play from the Black side?> No, there's not, and from your description it doesn't sound like a good candidate for Guess the Move. Jun-30-14    notyetagm: <CG.COM> Blau vs J H Donner, 1958 34 ♖d1xd6!! would make a great Thursday puzzle on the theme of <TRAPPED PIECES>. Jul-01-14    Check It Out: <chessgames.com: You mean to say when you go forward or backward a move, the entire board wiggles a little bit?> Hi CG, I looked more at this on my iPhone 5s. The board shifts left/right about a half millimeter when the move arrow is clicked forward or backward, also on auto-play. It only happens on particular moves and I would guess about 30% of the moves in a given game cause the shift. It's consistent; the same moves make the board shift upon repeated clicks. Jul-02-14    Stonehenge: <CG> May 14, 2013 should be May 14, 2014. Thanks. User: rinus Jul-02-14    chessgames.com: I've seen the wiggle effect. We're going to experiment by making the board a few pixels smaller and see if that solves anything. Jul-02-14    chessgames.com: Let us know if it solved anything. I was able to make the wiggle effect go away on an iPhone 4. Jul-02-14    notyetagm: Nodirbek Abdusattorov <JointheArmy: Just destroyed a 2600 GM> That is simply *amazing*. Not even 10-years old and he has already beaten a 2600(!) in a slow rated gamed. N Abdusattorov vs A Zhigalko, 2014, 1-0 (!!!!) WOW!!!! http://en.chessbase.com/post/nine-y... Jul-02-14    Check It Out: I played through several games and no wiggle. Jul-03-14    chessgames.com: <no wiggle> Awesome! <That is simply *amazing*> That is amazing. This kid is definitely the real deal. Jul-03-14    chessgames.com: Somebody submitted a rather whimsical game. The chess is awful but at least now we can say we have Donald Duck in our database: Spirit of Adventure vs Donald Duck, 1959. Jul-04-14    jessicafischerqueen: Happy 4th of July everyone! Jul-04-14    chessgames.com: Yes, happy Independence Day! Jul-05-14    davide2013: Could you add this game to Guess the move? Svidler vs Karjakin, 2014 It is used as example by GM Muller, in the latest Chessbase magazine (issue 160) as dismounting a fortress, and then race in the endgame. There is an amazing sacrifice on move 64. Jul-06-14    Shams: Any idea why youtube is now recommending Donald Duck cartoons for me? :) Jul-07-14    chessgames.com: The worst part is, they're addictive! Jul-07-14    shivasuri4: Thanks for today's wonderful GOTD! Jul-07-14    chessgames.com: T Hillarp Persson vs Hector, 2014? Glad you liked it! And we avoided making another lame "tiger" pun, too. Jul-07-14    Stonehenge: Rudolf Johannes Loman: On top of the page it says 208 games, but below that it says games 1-25 of 209. I know this discrepancy happens after new games have been uploaded, but here it has been so for about a week (?). I don't know if this has anything to do with your editing of Amsterdam (1889). Jul-07-14    notyetagm: <CG.COM> Can you please create a forum for the <15TH EUROPEAN WOMEN'S INDIVIDUAL CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP>, which started yesterday? Thanks. ---- TWIC DOSSIER -> http://www.theweekinchess.com/chess... TWIC PGN -> http://www.theweekinchess.com/asset... Jul-07-14    chessgames.com: European Individual Women's Championship (2014) Jul-07-14    chessgames.com: <Stonehenge> No that was just a case of his player record not having been updated in far too long, it has nothing to do with tournament editing. That's odd though, because he has the CG Star of Megaimportance. He was probably due to be reprocessed any time now, but I just did it by hand to make sure.
