It appears that we've been experiencing an unusual amount of requests lately, possibly due to malicious users attempting to compromise the site. We've updated our firewall settings to help resolve the issue. We'll continue to keep an eye on it. Aug-27-23    Messiah: <stevemcd87: <Stone> Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

It is a security issue. CG will be down for 30 minutes tonight for maintenance. Cyver attacks are very real and an increasing threat across the internet. These attacks are changing and growing more sophisticated every day. It is becoming the Wild West. Aug-29-23    MissScarlett: Need the rest of the games from The World Rapid Team Championship (2023). The sheer volume precludes my easily doing it by cut and paste. Aug-29-23    Susan Freeman: <MissS> I will pass the word.

Give me a little bit to figure out which ones are missing and get them up Aug-30-23    MissScarlett: Should be a maximum of 1296 games by my reckoning. 36 teams x 6 games per round x 12 rounds / 2. Aug-30-23    Messiah: <Requested 2023-08-29 18:14:08. 6.0 second/move evaluation. (16:40:17 elapsed) Game analysis in progress. * job # 4171548621991721 [ G Vescovi vs Y Wang, 2006 ] ✖ terminate this analysis> wew Aug-30-23    Messiah: After more than 25 hours I stopped it. Aug-31-23    MissScarlett: <Should be a maximum of 1296 games by my reckoning.> 1292 and counting....do better! Since <chess.com> and <lichess> will be boycotting St. Louis CC events, how about <cg> revive its live games' coverage with https://www.uschesschamps.com/2023-...? Sep-01-23    Stonehenge: <MissScarlett> Would you be as kind as to process McGowans games? It's the old problem again. Sep-01-23    Messiah: CG defending against the mysterious cyber attackers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_-... Sep-01-23    Susan Freeman: <Messiah> about right. 1500 attacks in 5 seconds. I know where they originated, just not who. Sep-02-23    MissScarlett: < I know where they originated> Sudan? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technolo... Sep-02-23    Susan Freeman: <MissS> not Sudan that time. But could be in the future. It was Poland. Sep-04-23    MissScarlett: <Miss Susan>, it's that time of year again...yes, I must urge you to facilitate the return of either i) <GeorgeWallace> ii) <Anniek> or iii) preferably both. Their want is most keenly felt. And are live games on the agenda? Sep-05-23    Susan Freeman: : <MissS> Anniek is always welcome. It is her choice to not participate. CG can ill afford her as an employee, and the escalating pay demands. There is a sigh of relief since GW has left. He was a chronic source of embarrassment. I was not aware of any time of year to faciliate this homecoming welcome. Could be the Season of the Witch? Sep-06-23    MissScarlett: <Miss Susan>, badly done. The <2023 Champions Showdown Chess 9LX> starts Friday. Does <cg>'s budget extend to a live broadcast? https://www.uschesschamps.com/2023-... Sep-06-23    Messiah: Bug report: Game Collection: Completely randomly selected games, vol. 1 The description of the first game (V Malakhov vs S N Soloviov, 1998) is <(B78) Sicilian, Dragon, Yugoslav Attack, 10.castle long, 50 moves, 1/2-1/2>. The name of the opening is pretty unusual, and it does not even equal to the opening name visible in the game page (V Malakhov vs S N Soloviov, 1998), which is <Sicilian Defense: Dragon Variation. Yugoslav Attack (B78)>. Sep-07-23    Stonehenge: Last FIDE rating has to be deleted here: Ludwig Rellstab That's Ludwig Rellstab Jr Sep-07-23    Susan Freeman: MissScarlett: <Miss Susan>, badly done.

Does <cg>'s budget extend to a live broadcast? unfortunately not Sep-08-23    Susan Freeman: not in that case Sep-08-23    MissScarlett: How about the US Championships in October? Incidentally, are the McDonald brother still both working for <cg> full-time? Sep-08-23    MissScarlett: The football-themed header is still on every page bar the front page.
