< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 157 OF 453 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jan-01-21    jessicafischerqueen: <z> Do you know how I can find the URL link to the newly updated <zip files>? I want to look at it as well. Jan-01-21    Z4all: Hi Jess - yes, I think you will find it on a link contained on Premium Members FAQ page: Premium Membership Help Page Or, more directly, use this link: Zipfile Archive Jan-01-21    jessicafischerqueen: <z> Thank you so much! Jan-01-21    Tabanus: The last 237 games of chess.com Speed Chess (2020) are missing. Jan-02-21    Tabanus: <Z4all: Hi <Sargon> - Great, glad to hear> Well, the last 4 games from Dec 31 were missing. And today the 5 games from yesterday are also missing. Jan-02-21    thegoodanarchist: Horwitz vs Harrwitz, 1846 Keep your Witz about you! Jan-03-21    Z4all: <Tab> ditto here - Airthings Masters (2020) (kibitz #24) Jan-03-21    Z4all: <JFQ> I think you (of all people) should rather enjoy all the features / benefits of SCID. Please, if you find any difficulties in using SCID, or just need a hint or whatever, drop me a note, and I"ll try to be of aid. . Jan-04-21    jessicafischerqueen: <z> Thank you! So far I have been looking at the zip file. This contains the pgn for every game in our database amirite. Jan-04-21    Z4all: <JFQ> yes, it should be a complete snapshot of the database's games. Whether it contains a real and complete snapshot of a given time is subject to how well managed the database is (and how well the tools are programmed). In principle it's a complete picture of <CG> (minus all the chat and bios, that is). Jan-04-21    Wanda Nida: The Best Board Game: Lubek Chess Castle 2000 explained: http://encyclopediasupreme.org/0000 /LongLongCastle.txt /Rocky http://mywikibiz.com/0000 /2356 2013 award winner book, Lubek's Threelogy: https://www.trafford.com/Bookstore/... Jan-04-21    Wanda Nida: chessgames... there is huge privacy violations on simple.wikipedoia, im sure you know somebody who has account there, give them my email, it will be appreciated... Jan-04-21    Wanda Nida: dont forget on simple! spanish chessmaster 2000, is there download link, how to contact uploader or ask around? https://www.mobygames.com/game/zx-s... Jan-05-21    Sokrates: Just a note of information to those of you who have seen "The Queen's Gambit" on Netflix. The series AND the games in it are comprehensively covered, analyzed and commented in the latest issue of New in Chess. Jan-05-21    Susan Freeman: <Sokrates> Thank you for the above post. I will definitely check it out. 😊 Jan-05-21    Tabanus: "Maintaining the database is hard work". The Rapid event 16th Corsica Masters KO (2012) is complete (34 games) but no intro and the games Classical. Any chance of having it editable/TI-ed? Jan-05-21    Stonehenge: <Copyright 2001-2020, Chessgames Services LLC> Please change to 2021 :) Jan-06-21    offramp: On the home page you have GOTD: Chekhover vs Lasker, 1935 Opening: Nimzovich-Bent Larsen & Puzzle: Anand vs Lautier, 1995 Although it's not her birthday, you could have had Kateryna Lagno as Player of the Day. I think you should try and link up all four of the home page inserts, perhaps even as a kind of puzzle. Jan-06-21    Z4all: How am I supposed to find a player like <H G Daniel> when the <Advanced Search> on this name yields 11,752 entries: https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... Ahh, counter-intuitively, the <E-Z Search> is more exacting: search "h g daniel" Hate to say it, but this <Daniel> <Search> moves the lame-meter a notch or two. Jan-06-21    Check It Out: Revisiting this unanswered query regarding ads popping up for premium members: <<<Sargon: <Tabanus: [...] they will sneak in ads whenever they can [...]> Nonsense. Any premium member who—having set the preference to suppress 3rd-party ad display—thereafter sees <any> 3rd-party ad on <any> page needs to <report it immediately, because that's a software error!>> OhioChessFan: Mobile, Chrome browser. I get ads on the bottom of every page in the alphabetical player directory.> Check It Out: <Sargon> Similar to <OCF>, I use mobile, Chrome browser. I get ads just below the pgn and above the kibitzing on all game pages. Obviously a premium member, and "do not display 3rd party ads" is checked in preferences.> <Sargon> Any word on the software error causing this? Jan-07-21    Boomie: <Chessgames.com> The posting guidelines are listed as follows: <Please observe our posting guidelines: 1. No obscene, racist, sexist, or profane language. 2. No spamming, advertising, duplicate, or gibberish posts. 3. No vitriolic or systematic personal attacks against other members. 4. Nothing in violation of United States law. 5.

The use of "sock puppet" accounts to circumvent disciplinary action taken by moderators, create a false impression of consensus or support, or stage conversations, is prohibited.> However, the list in "Blow the Whistle" do not match: < PROBLEM(S): The username is inappropriate. Spamming, advertising, or duplicating posts. Obscene, profane, racist, or sexist content. Personal attacks against other user(s). Post may violate U.S. law. Post is off-topic. Post reveals personal information. If none of the above violations apply, select "OTHER". Please use this choice sparingly; for things that do not violate the rules above are probably not violations. Other.> These lists should at least attempt to be coordinated. Jan-07-21    realdumptrump: <Check It Out ... <Sargon> Any word on the software error causing this?> chessgames.com chessforum (kibitz #34877) Maybe <Sargon>'s lack of reply is due to travel? Jan-07-21    Check It Out: <Sargon> has posted at least three times over several days on this forum since the original query. His statement made it sound like an urgent issue:<report it immediately, because that's a software error!> Meanwhile, I still see the ads and have probably accidentally applied for several mortgage refinances, obtained unwanted insurance, and may have even purchased a bidet. Jan-07-21    Susan Freeman: https://youtu.be/Qc_v9mTfhC8 Old but worth watching about Magnus. Jan-07-21    offramp: http://www.hastingschess.com/ On Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th the 100th serial Hastings Tournament takes place. Will you have a page for it?
