  offramp: <Dr Winston OBoogie: <zanzibar: I think <chessgames.com> is doing a pretty good job righting the ship> I do too. I think this place is nowhere near as insane with the new management, Sargon's <not afraid> to put his foot down and he made a perfect example out of someone - and I know my time will come with a big suspension at some point too so I'm not complaining. Just reading some of the kibitzing and I hope y'all know that when it comes to permanently banning someone I'm not for it, but BP went too far and he shouldn't be on the internet let alone a chess site or even a computer with access to the net, that guy was just mental. As far as what's happened with <Morf> and <Jay-B> I do not know, I can't even be bothered looking but until it's sorted <Morf> goes on ignore... I never saw Jay-B talking to say.. tpstar or Keyser Soze after what they've been up to since Daniel died. I <definitely> saw <Morf> talking to <Tga> after Tga agreed with <Big Pawn> and even started inventing reasons and creating false narratives claiming I had something to do with Daniel's death. I can't get my head around why he'd make conversation with someone like <Tga> who's quite obviously a drunk or a <complete d--k> with crazy conspiracy theories coming out of his backside....>

This reminds me of:

<Honuphrius is a concupiscent ex-servicemajor who makes dishonest propositions to all. He is considered to have committed, invoking <droit d’oreiller>, simple infidelities with Felicia, a virgin, and to be practising for unnatural coits with Eugenius and Jeremias, two or three philadelphians.

Honophrius, Felicia, Eugenius and Jeremias are consanguineous to the lowest degree. Anita the wife of Honophrius, has been told by her tirewoman, Fortissa, that Honuphrius has blasphemously confessed under voluntary chastisement that he has instructed his slave, Mauritius, to urge Magravius, emulous of Honuphrius, to solicit the chastity of Anita.

Anita is informed by some illegitimate children of Fortissa with Mauritius (the supposition is Ware’s) that Gillia, the schismatical wife of Magravius, is visited clandestinely by Barnabas, the advocate of Honuphrius, an immoral person who has been corrupted by Jeremias.

Gillia, (a cooler blend, D’Alton insists) ex equo with Poppea, Arancita, Clara, Marinuzza, Indra and Iodina, has been tenderly debauched (in Halliday’s view), by Honuphrius, and Magravius knows from spies that Anita has formerly committed double sacrilege with Michael, vulgo Cerularius, a perpetual curate, who wishes to seduce Eugenius.

Magravius threatens to have Anita molested by Sulla, an orthodox savage (and leader of a band of twelve mercenaries, the Sullivani), who desires to procure Felicia for Gregorius, Leo, Vitellius and Macdugalius, four excavators, if she will not yield to him and also deceive Honuphrius by rendering conjugal duty when demanded. Anita who claims to have discovered incestuous temptations from Jeremias and Eugenius would yield to the lewdness of Honuphrius to appease the savagery of Sulla and the mercernariness of the twelve Sullivani, and (as Gilbert at first suggested), to save the virginity of Felicia for Magravius when converted by Michael after the death of Gillia, but she fears that, by allowing his marital rights she may cause reprehensible conduct between Eugenius and Jeremias. Michael, who has formerly debauched Anita, dispenses her from yielding to Honuphrius who pretends publicly to possess his conjunct in thirty-nine several manners (turpiter! affirm ex cathedris Gerontes Cambronses) for carnal hygiene whenever he has rendered himself impotent to consummate by subdolence. Anita is disturbed but Michael comminates that he will reserve her case tomorrow for the ordinary Guglielmus even if she should practise a pious fraud during affrication which, from experience, she knows (according to Wadding), to be leading to nullity. Fortissa, however, is encouraged by Gregorius, Leo, Viteilius, and Magdugalius, reunitedly, to warn Anita by describing the strong chastisements of Honuphrius and the depravities (turpissimas!) of Canicula, the deceased wife of Mauritius, with Sulla, the simoniac, who is abnegand and repents. Has he hegemony and shall she submit?>

LOL!

  offramp: <Dr Winston OBoogie: Those long winter nights must just fly be in the <offy> and <miss offy> household LOL.>

Many people think that Mrs Offy and I are married but it is just coincidence.

We did laugh when first we found out. “Good morning Mrs Offy," I’d say, and she'd say “Good morning, Mr Offy"!

We <did> laugh!

Sep-23-18  Dr Winston OBoogie: <Offy> You're <Ploppy!!!!>. https://goo.gl/images/51JLbj

You can't fool a man who <knows> his Blackadder! Only intelligent people get Blackadder...

If you're <really> Ploppy https://goo.gl/images/iESJ5q 🤷

Sep-23-18  thegoodanarchist: Hi <CG>,

The 43rd Olympiad tourny page says that it starts tomorrow, Sep. 24th, but the link to it, on the home page, says

<43rd Chess Olympiad
Batumi, Georgia
Sep 23-Oct 6>

So there is a date mismatch that needs correction.

Sep-23-18
Premium Chessgames Member
  Annie K.: Not really. As far as CG is concerned, the start of the tournament is the date of the first round (24th). As far as the organizers are concerned, the start of the tournament is when they hold the opening ceremony (23rd). We don't have to care about that. :)
Sep-23-18  thegoodanarchist: <chessgames.com: ...Please remain calm.>

Why do you have to go and spoil the fun?

Sep-23-18  thegoodanarchist: < OhioChessFan:

I think it not an exageration to say <jfq> has put in 10's of thousands of hours on this site.>

Sorry, <OCF>, it sounds just like an exaggeration. Do the math!

Technically, you did write "exageration", not "exaggeration", so I suppose a good lawyer can get an acquittal.

Sep-23-18  thegoodanarchist: <Premium Chessgames Member saffuna: <As of today, Daniel's mother, <Susan> - the legal majority owner of Chessgames.com - can be addressed directly at her new formal account: User: Susan Freeman.>

Let's all agree today to keep that page respectful and on-topic.>

Good ass-kissing, right outta the gate! Way to go, <saff>!

Opening ceremony?! Good gawd... At least they don't televise it on NBC.

Sep-23-18  thegoodanarchist: < offramp: ...

We <did> laugh!>

Me too! Just now.

Sep-23-18  john barleycorn: <Count Wedgemore: ...
On a more serious note: I'm sad to see that there is so much animosity between <morf>, <jbc> and <ocf>. >

There is no animosity between <ocf> and me as far as I am aware of.

Sep-23-18  Count Wedgemore: <jbc: There is no animosity between <ocf> and me as far as I am aware of.>

Noted, <jbc>. My apologies to you and <ocf> for being imprecise. I should have phrased it differently: <morf> doesn't like you guys, and you guys don't like <morf>! Anyway, I never meant to make a big thing out of this, so I probably shouldn't have brought it up in the first place. Not everyone can get along, I get that. I will not address this any further.

Sep-23-18  zanzibar: <AnnieK> Re Tournament start date

<As far as CG is concerned, the start of the tournament is the date of the first round>

Hmmm... not sure I agree 100% with this.

  Annie K.: <CIO> very true... :) but there is no problem with the membership payment pages that I know of.

<docbenway> Were you trying to pay with the credit card page (your link would be https://secure.chessgames.com/perl/...), or with the PayPal page (your link would be https://secure.chessgames.com/perl/...)?

  OhioChessFan: <zanzi: Some opportunists took advantage of the temporary lack of administration to pollute the site, amplifying their already exhibited disrespect both of the site, and other <CG> users.>

Perhaps you should consider buying a mirror.

Sep-25-18  diceman: <saffuna:

Let's all agree today to keep that page respectful and on-topic.>

Would that pledge have the same level of truth/integrity, as when you said you would only address posters by their screen-name?

Sep-26-18  Z truth: <<OCF> Perhaps you should consider buying a mirror>

Oh, bless your heart, <lil'O>, and your pointed little head! But not being as vainglorious as you, there's no need.
