May-26-22    MissScarlett: How about keeping the account but deleting all the posts? May-26-22    Stonehenge: You can submit a website to Norton: https://support.norton.com/sp/en/in.... Often websites that contain games are labelled 'dangerous'. May-27-22    Tabanus: Norton is getting superfluous and desperate. May-27-22    jessicafischerqueen: <Tab> At the best of times <Norton> was always incredibly intrusive. I soon came to regard it as MALWARE and tried to get rid of it. Do you remember how hard it was to get all traces of <Norton> of your computer? 0/10 rating for <Norton> May-27-22    whiteshark: <The Nortons> Seen one, seen 'em all. May-27-22    MissScarlett: Is User: kev still on board? May-29-22    MissScarlett: I inadvertently uploaded a game N Sommerbauer vs N McDonald, 1987 that was already in the DB N Sommerbauer vs N McDonald, 1986 (I had searched for Sommerbauer - McDonald but only for the year indicated in the source (1987)). I'll delete it, but can <steve> or <Caisso> explain how it made it past the duplicate filter? I see no difference in the score. Is it because the exisiting version is itself a relative newcomer to the DB? If so, the DB index needs more rgular updating. May-29-22    Z free or die: <Missy - ... explain how it made it past the duplicate filter? > Maybe because of the different dates (as you already noted). How loose do you want your filtering - i.e. you could easily have duplicate GM draws from different years. If you really want to control your filtering - than I'd suggest using SCID to find duplicates (twins). One can control the filtering according to whatever loose criteria you require. I'd suggest exploring that route - and leave the <CG> filtering narrow for obvious duplicates. May-29-22    MissScarlett: <How loose do you want your filtering - i.e. you could easily have duplicate GM draws from different years.> I want duplicates to be flagged, not automatically rejected. May-29-22    Z free or die: <<Missy> I want duplicates to be flagged, not automatically rejected.> Right answer, but rolling your own with SCID is still recommended. May-30-22    MissScarlett: Can I expect a reply? <stevemcd> has become less and less communicative. May-30-22    MissScarlett: <Norton is getting superfluous and desperate.> I can think of one poster in particular, too. May-31-22    stevemcd87: <MissS> stevemcd87 chessforum May-31-22    MissScarlett: <Norway> tournament starting today (the blitz warm-up event happened yesterday). Let's get it on the front page! Jun-01-22    Susan Freeman: steve said yes Jun-01-22    FSR: I just submitted a game that I didn't intend to submit: Frederick Rhine-Guest. Not worthy. Please don't publish it. Jun-01-22    Stonehenge: OK, it's gone. Jun-01-22    FSR: <Stonehenge> Thanks. Jun-01-22    MissScarlett: Let's not process any <Frederick Rhine-Guest> games. This is not a vanity publishing site. Jun-01-22    Z free or die: <<MissMoaner> Let's not process any <Frederick Rhine-Guest> games. This is not a vanity publishing site.> I beg to differ. (De facto vs de jure) Jun-01-22    Z free or die: Speaking of moaning... <I can think of one poster in particular, too.> Noting the inscrutable sly smile, one wonders who's the intended target here. Or perhaps it's a layer cake?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5R...
