ARCHIVED POSTS < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 916 OF 1118 ·  Later Kibitzing> May-16-16    tpstar: Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy & Sneezy May-16-16    LucB: Hi ChessGames, I have a question: what needs to be done to get an Ilya Makoveev page started? Does it already exist and I'm just not typing his name correctly? Thanks! May-16-16    Penguincw: < LucB > (in case you haven't found it yet) Would this be it? Ilya Makoveev BTW: I think it's just me, but if I copy and paste that above URL into the search box, it pulls up to this guy: Joseph Perl. Is this like, normal? May-16-16    chessgames.com: <LucB: Hi ChessGames, I have a question: what needs to be done to get an Ilya Makoveev page started?> The only games of his we know of are from the Moscow Open A (2016) which we just uploaded. <Others> Don't take it personally if I delete your post shortly. This has gotten a bit out of hand. May-16-16    chessgames.com: Penguincw, great timing, you found it mere seconds after I uploaded the Moscow Open. May-16-16    LucB: <Penguin> and <chessgames>: thanks, that's brilliant! GM Ben Finegold just did a YT video of 3 of his games, and they are wonderful (this kid is just 10 years old!). This is why I was asking: I was curious to see more. May-17-16    WinKing: Below is the game Ben Finegold showcases in his video about Ilya Makoveev. The thing to rememmber is he was 8 years old when he played it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du0... <[Event "MalayaZemlya-2014 open" ] [Site "Novorossiisk (Rus)"] [Date "2014.07.14"] [Round "?"] [White "Morozov, Dmitry"] [Black "Makoveev , Ilya"] [Result "0-1"] [ECO "A36"] [WhiteElo "0"] [BlackElo "0"] 1.c4 c5 2.g3 g6 3.Bg2 Bg7 4.e4 Nc6 5.Ne2 e6 6.Nbc3 Nge7 7.O-O O-O 8.d3 d6 9.Be3 Nd4 10.Qd2 Re8 11.Bh6 Bh8 12.Rab1 Nec6 13.Nxd4 Bxd4 14.Ne2 Bh8 15.f4 Bd7 16.h3 Nd4 17.Nxd4 Bxd4+ 18.Kh2 Rb8 19.b3 b5 20.Qe2 f6 21.h4 a5 22.Rbe1 a4 23.Qf3 Bc6 24.h5 Kf7 25.Qg4 Rg8 26.Bh3 Qe7 27.e5 dxe5 28.fxe5 f5 29.Qf4 bxc4 30.dxc4 axb3 31.axb3 Rxb3 32.Re2 g5 33.Qc1 g4 34.Bg2 Qh4+ 35.gxh4 Rh3+ 36.Bxh3 g3# 0-1> Seeing as there are no wins shown in Ilya Makoveev's new forum this might be a nice game to add. We will surely be seeing more from this youngster in the future. May-17-16    WinKing: Daniel I sent you some games of Ilya Makoveev via e-mail. Just so you know when you see them. May-17-16    WinKing: For puzzle lovers the position in the Morozov-Makoveev game after 34.Bg2 is quite interesting. Black mates in 3. Would make a good Tuesday or Wednesday puzzle for chessgames. click for larger view May-17-16    LucB: <Alien Math> I've no problems with this poster, as he's been on my ignore list for a long time! <WinKing>: thanks for submitting the moves of that last game from the Finegold video. Isn't that a cool mating motif? May-17-16    Alien Math: is nothing sacred? Two players have been disqualified for cheating - Ilya Makoveev (Russian Federation) who finished first with 9/11 points and Shubham Shukla (India) who took eighth place with 6.5 points. They will not be allowed to take part in the Final tournament. http://www.chessdom.com/16-players-... Ilya Makoveev May-17-16    User not found: Winking.. Qh4.. Rh3 and g3? All blacks moves are forced, right? I only had a quick glance but it looks good to me. Those bishops are lethal. May-18-16    Alien Math: Daniel you are within your rights to suspend me for a time for my actions here, i want you to know that i was frustrated and made unsound remarks during that time, it does not excuse me or free me from any comment i made at the time, i love this site but, sometimes, i frustrate, and yes it is only against one nation or nationality, thanks to a select few who do their best to provoke May-19-16    Domdaniel: <<Knight13: <the famed 7 troublemakers> Who are they?> Curley, Larry, Moe, Dave Dee, Dozey, Beakie, Mick and Titch. > Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Gifted & Black & Blue. May-19-16    Benzol: <Knight13> <<the famed 7 troublemakers> Who are they?> <Knight13> If you really want to know have a read of the lower portion of the <Benzol> profile. May-19-16    perfidious: Dang it, Ah looked at that there list and figgered Ah would see Yul Brynner in there! They ain't no Magnificent Seven! We wuz robbed! Shows what <Ah> know. May-19-16    Shams: P,S,C,F,C,M,T. May-20-16    whiteshark: <ceegee> Could you please make Chessgames Challenge: Team White vs Team Black, 2015 replayable. [I think you have to replace the 'challenge' with 'chessgame' and do some other database stuff... ;)] May-20-16    chessgames.com: Sorry about that, here you go: Team White vs Team Black, 2015. May-20-16    offramp: <chesgames.com> There is so much trouble that begins at either The Kibitzer's Café or at that stupid Kenneth Rogoff page. Ask people to give reasons to keep those pages open. When they can't give them, shut both pages down. May-20-16    Annie K.: Reason: if the people who like that sort of thing didn't have those two outlets for those specific purposes, you'd have those kinds of interactions all over the site instead. Not an improvement. The Rogoff page doesn't appear in the Recent Kibitzing. Improvement. :) May-20-16    Annie K.: PS: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen. May-20-16    Domdaniel: <User not found> Hmmm indeed. Where do these weird memes come from? <Annie K> - < Reason: if the people who like that sort of thing didn't have those two outlets for those specific purposes, you'd have those kinds of interactions all over the site instead. Not an improvement.> Oh, definitely not an improvement. A demolishment, probably. We should encourage the intellectually challenged to use their little outlets, so the rest of us can get on with the business of doing whatever it is that we do. Even if what we do is nothing. May-20-16    Domdaniel: <Alien Math> Well done for being the first to see that I. Makoveev was in trouble for allegedly cheating in Moscow. I also note that your English is much more fluent now. Congratulations to you, and all in Alaska. As for that archipelago in the Pacific: I know some very nice people who come from that place. Yet it seems that the ones on this site tend to be strange. Or difficult. May-20-16    Domdaniel: <Even if what we do is nothing.> "A nice night for mothing" - Vladimir Nabokov.
