Dec-11-21    MissScarlett: Who said we ain't got memes? I give you <Edouard Pape the Frog.> As for being up to date, I just uploaded some Daniel Harrwitz games from 1852. Try and find them on any other site. Dec-11-21    Susan Freeman: I do not want memes to be part of CG’s culture. Dec-11-21    saffuna: A positive side effect of that is that it's possible to see many more posts on the same page, twenty or thirty, rather than five or ten if graphics were prominent. Plus we don't have to look at offensive images unless we want to. Dec-11-21    MissScarlett: < I do not want memes to be part of CG’s culture.> How about the dancing rook? Dec-11-21    jessicafischerqueen: <MissScarlett> Off with his head! Let's see if he still enjoys his annoying dancing then... Dec-11-21    OhioChessFan: To the tune of Dancing Queen-Abba https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ij...

Dec-12-21    Susan Freeman: <George>. Call it tradition. Call It class and classic. Heritage. Dec-12-21    Susan Freeman: My current mission is trying to preserve the Chessgames tradition but updating it to the new servers and technology. It is a tedious and rewarding task. Dec-12-21    Susan Freeman: Think of Chessgames as a museum of fine art. Dec-12-21    George Wallace: I think of it as Myspace with a database of chess games. It's an old folks home for people afraid to change at all. Reminds me of my uncle. It was year 2010 before he finally got a microwave oven.

Dec-12-21    Tabanus: <beatgiant> I'm here now, 8:47 pm Norw. time! Dec-12-21    beatgiant: <all> Last night, I fixed the previews for keyboard inputs by Europeans. My own testing showed it was working, and <Tabanus> has confirmed. Dec-12-21    Tabanus: To be more specific, confirmed by my "hp" (Hewlett Packard?) keyboard which has "Made in China" on it. Btw it has been working for months now :) Dec-12-21    beatgiant: By <European> I meant the keyboards with Latin script and extended Latin characters. If you want to input in Greek, Russian, Armenian etc. you still need to use another input technique, for example a virtual keyboard such as the ones here: https://gate2home.com/ Dec-13-21    George Wallace: Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

I've had to hit the reload button 5-10 times every time I go to a new page or try to post a comment. Pretty third-world. Dec-13-21    beatgiant: <George Wallace> Thanks for the report. I'm looking into it now. Dec-13-21    beatgiant: <George Wallace> I gave the server a whack and it's stopped happening for the last 10 minutes. I'll keep watching a while and you can post here if you see it again. Dec-13-21    Diademas: A belated thanks to <CG> for getting the live coverage up and running. To be frank; without it it's not worth the price of admission. Dec-13-21    OhioChessFan: True, live games are a highlight of the site.
