... huh?!

Sep-27-22  diceman: <MissScarlett: I'm sure it's been suggested before but a priority should be the creation of templates to automatically generate cross tables for tournaments (whether SRR, DRR or Swiss) and results/progressive scores for matches, thereby greatly facilitating the work of the hapless biographers.>

Shouldn't it be a priority to get the games on site first?

<petemcd85:

<MissScarlett: Can we have the Chess.com Global Championship Knockout 2022?>

If you know a source for me to get the games PGN, I'll put it up.>

As the saying goes:

  MissScarlett: Thanks. Nice results table there. I should point out that the time control is rapid, not blitz, according to FIDE rules. There are a few armageddon games that need sorting.

<A ‘Rapid chess’ game is one where either all the moves must be completed in a fixed time of more than 10 minutes but less than 60 minutes for each player; or the time allotted plus 60 times any increment is of more than 10 minutes but less than 60 minutes for each player.

A ‘blitz’ game’ is one where all the moves must be completed in a fixed time of 10 minutes or less for each player; or the allotted time plus 60 times any increment is 10 minutes or less.>

Sep-29-22  stone free or die: Do you really like the check mark for the designation of the winner?

I think I'd like to see a <bold-face> used for comparison (or even a gray background maybe).

Not saying it would definitely be an improvement, but that it might be.

  MissScarlett: Corruptible characters on the front page:

<Blood and Gör>, <Women’s Grand Prix (2022)>

I want my ellipses back.

Where's <beatgiant> when you need him?

  MissScarlett: <Do you really like the check mark for the designation of the winner?>

That's <chess.com>'s doings.

Sep-30-22  diceman: <MissScarlett: What's <dice>'s opinion>

Do they still have a Canadian Open?

Sep-30-22  ZoboBear 000000001: Who deleted my previous post about mating patterns, and why?

That post had good content - and a very measured tone.

And yes, it was totally factual - I did invent the "Railroad Mate", as well as the "Balestra", "Escalator" and others.

I would like an explanation please.

Sep-30-22  ZoboBear 000000001: Oh yeah, it was over on this game's forum:

R Brieger vs J Camarena, 1956

Seriously, I want an explanation.

Sep-30-22  ZoboBear 000000001: If you did <Missy> then we should bump it up a level.

Bad boy.

  MissScarlett: Quit stalking each other. It's embarrassing and creepy.
Sep-30-22  ZoboBear 000000001: How about you and Hazz?

Anyways - I'm not stalking him, he's stalking me. And he does it to <perf> too.

Check out his profile, that's something that <CG> shouldn't allow.

But he doesn't get a free-pass due to his ill-manners to post gibberish on <CG>. I get to call him on it. And I actually was trying to be constructive in the commentary on mating pattern naming - believe it or not.

Not then, straight up, did you delete my post <Missy>?

A simple yes or not will suffice.
