  chessgames.com: <Memethecat> We are trying to solve the problem. There isn't much we can tell you to do at this point but to thank you for your patience.

<MarkFinan> No we were not aware of that app, but that's OK; linking to web resources is not a crime.

Good evening.

I just submitted a game, and I noticed that the pgn came out in the <upload facility box> as one long string, with no line breaks?

This never happened before, but I didn't "manually" put in line breaks, fearing the <line break issue> that came up previously.

Is there something wrong with the pgn I submitted, to cause it to come out in one long line like that?

If there is a problem, please let me know.

Thank you for your patience with <me vs. pgn upload facility>.

His remarkable web site contains a wealth of historical information and the ability to retrace the moves of thousands of contests between the giants of the chess world.>

My bad! This was written in the "other stuff" part of the app.

  WCC Editing Project: Good afternoon.

Ok thank you! I hadn't seen that post. It was the top secret wrap around fix all along...

Jul-17-14  Memethecat: <CG> Had time to read your other posts today, I can see I'm not alone. Its OK, I have patience. Maybe your host is renting space to an 'undesirable'. Any balanced reporting of the massacre in Gaza is frowned upon, this alone could bring about a DOS attack. Just an idea. Do you have a list of their customers?
Jul-17-14  notyetagm: <CG.COM>

Can we please have a forum for the upcoming(?) <2014 TROMSK CHESS OLYMPIAD> so we can discuss the scandal involving the exclusion of the Russian Women's Team from the event by the organizers?

Thanks

  chessgames.com: Good idea.

Here you go: Chess Olympiad (2014) and perhaps more importantly Chess Olympiad (Women) (2014).

  chessgames.com: I've learned that there is a widely supported browser feature called "soft wrapping" where what you put into a form looks word-wrapped, but when you press the submit button it actually sends it unwrapped. That would be ideal for purposes of PGN submission. I'll see what I can do to make that happen.
Jul-17-14
Premium Chessgames Member
  chessgames.com: We've turned on "soft wrapping" — but just to be doubly certain, we also added code that stitches together broken O-O and 1/2-1/2.

  Tabanus: Hi CG, I think you can now link to Game Collection: FIDE Country Codes (2014) on the tournament nomination page (instead of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_31...) as the Bistro wants <historical FIDE codes without exception> by a 5-0 vote.
