< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 322 OF 457 ·  Later Kibitzing> Aug-30-22    Messiah: <Willber G: <optimal play: I think the members are entitled to more information about this matter.> I think there are more pressing matters that <paying> members have asked to be resolved before Admin spend more time discussing individual disciplinary issues on here.> That's not how CG works. Aug-30-22    Susan Freeman: Re <BP>/<GW>: We need to stop the flood of questions/opinions regarding this. Please post additional comments about this on either mine or Susan's forum. The support forum is no longer for this discussion. I know, I started this mayhem (no need to remind me) so I am now obligated to get it under control. Facts: - CG's server was attacked - We linked multiple hacker ip's to comments made a few years ago by a group of trolls, which spoke very much like our current day <George Wallace> - With some help from emails, we were able to confirm that the trolls in the past were undeniably <BP>/<GW> We felt like this evidence(multiple hacker ip's linked to multiple of his previous troll accounts) was too substantial to just brush off as a coincidence. Especially with comments made in the past(by the previous trolls and current day <GW>) showing that he is capable and willing to do such a thing. There you go, we gave more detailed information than we originally wanted to help you better understand why we made the decision to ban him. Hope this helps. <Once again, please go to either mine (User: stevemcd87) or Susan's forum(User: Susan Freeman) if you have any questions or concerns about this matter. FUTURE COMMENTS ABOUT THIS MATTER, ON THIS FORUM, WILL BE DELETED> Aug-30-22    Susan Freeman: the above was per Steve Aug-30-22    OhioChessFan: Yes, I thought that was the story. Aug-30-22    MissScarlett: So how to mark the 50th anniversary of Fischer's title victory? Will <POTD> suffice? Aug-30-22    Susan Freeman: <Miss > I think it is sufficient. Aug-31-22    MissScarlett: Let's just hope <Caisso> gets the memo. Aug-31-22    MissScarlett: Wrong day. True, Game 21 (Spassky vs Fischer, 1972) was played on August 31st but Spassky didn't resign until the morrow. Let's hope nobody notices. Aug-31-22    Susan Freeman: <Miss> shhh. Nobody will notice. Aug-31-22    stone free or die: <<OCF> Yes, I thought that was the story.> Of course you did, it's pretty much the exact story I clearly communicated. Aug-31-22    stone free or die: (No asymmetries please.) Aug-31-22    N0B0DY: <Susan Freeman: Nobody will notice.> You could be right about that now. Sep-02-22    OhioChessFan: We could use a Sinquefield Cup page. Sep-02-22    MissScarlett: < We could use...> I don't know if this could be characterised as <passive-aggressive>, but I prefer the formulation <We need> or <We should have>. To which end, we should have the <Tournament of Stars 2022> (https://www.chess.com/ru/events/202...). It may be a provocation, but I bridle at the imputation that <cg> is boycotting Russian chess. Sep-02-22    stone free or die: I don't know <Missy>, that phrase isn't on the list here: https://www.cnbc.com/2022/08/19/the... Might you be splitting hairs? Or, if I could get meta, doing a passive-aggressive passive-aggressive? . Sep-02-22    petemcd85: <To which end, we should have the Tournament of Stars 2022 (https://www.chess.com/ru/events/202...)> Its not up on: https://theweekinchess.com/a-year-o... If you have another source for me to get the pgn game files. I will put it up. Sep-02-22    MissScarlett: It's here: https://theweekinchess.com/html/twi... Sep-02-22    MissScarlett: The last 3 blitz rounds of Saint Louis Rapid & Blitz (2022) didn't show up! So 15 games missing. Sep-02-22    petemcd85: <MissScarlett: The last 3 blitz rounds of Saint Louis Rapid & Blitz (2022) didn't show up! So 15 games missing.> Thank you for letting me know, it's there now. <MissScarlett: It's here: https://theweekinchess.com/html/twi... There's no pgn link there, I need the pgn link to upload games. Sep-02-22    MissScarlett: It's in TWIC 1446 via https://theweekinchess.com/twic The <49th Dortmund Sparkassen Chess-Meeting 2022> also looks tasty. Maybe once a week, we should have a selection discussion. Sep-03-22    MissScarlett: What's the source of the recurrent outages? Is the site under attack? How can we assuage the angry gods? Sep-03-22    stone free or die: <<Missy> How can we assuage the angry gods?> The traditional method for "assuaging" the gods is to sacrifice a young virgin. They're in short supply on <CG>, so I suppose <Missy>, despite being long-in-the-tooth, will have to do?!? . Sep-03-22    Susan Freeman: They say if one has abstained for one year that person is back to virgin status. Perhaps we could find a few of those around here. Sep-03-22    WinKing: Will there be any 'Live' game coverage for the Sinquefield tournament? Sep-03-22    nok: <I suppose <Missy>, despite being long-in-the-tooth, will have to do?!?> I preferred her as a redhead, anyway.
