Was an edit you submitted bounced?

  OhioChessFan: <Maybe you added some whitespace?>

Ummm, maybe? Hard to believe I accidentally did that.

<<OCF> I'm not sure I understand your question. Was an edit you submitted bounced?>

No. An edit I have no knowledge of is showing up as version #9 and attributed to me. The version in question shows no change whatsoever, excepting possibly adding/subtracting a line of white space as <jnp> suggested.

Thanks. The main question then is how did your name get associated with an edit?

Have you ever sleep-edited before?

  offramp: Chessgames - Sports

Have your beady eyes spotted that many Indians have become good at chess?

Many Indians like <BOTH> chess and cricket!

Any chance you could squeeze a cricket ball into the Chessgames - Sports home logo?

  Tabanus: An interesting chess-related post in Recent Kibitzing (front page) now stands for about <one day> or even less before it disappears. Because every time there's a post in Politics, Sports etc., where most of the CG posts now are, it gets pushed one line down. Does this have a self-reinforcing effect? Just asking ;)

  Tabanus: From ChessGames.com Statistics Page, Which pages on chessgames.com have the most kibitzing? Top 10:

0 (479,878)
Kibitzer's Café (321,000)
Wesley So (212,385)
Chessgames - Politics (99,771)
Magnus Carlsen (83,751)

Biographer Bistro (32,590)

Is this updated? And what does "0" stand for?

Sep-13-25  stone free or die: <<Tab> Is this updated?>

Good question. I would guess probably not since <Daniel> did it last.

You can always do a spot check though, and compare tomorrow's stats against todays.

<And what does "0" stand for?>

This is almost certainly the old <Rogoff> forum that got deleted.

  Tabanus: <the old <Rogoff> forum that got deleted>

So the handful of Politics posters with half a million posts are financing CG because they "draw in new paople"? Hard to believe.

Yeah, I never brought into that either.

Just to be on the safe side, maybe <Tab> and <stonehenge> ought to be placed on restricted duties.

Chessgames - Politics will be neither the deliverance nor the downfall of <cg>. It requires no justification beyond itself.

Sep-13-25  stone free or die: <<Missy> Just to be on the safe side, maybe <Tab> and <stonehenge> ought to be placed on restricted duties.>

I'm a bit chagrined to be omitted!

  WannaBe: <1959H> Home page, right hand side, scroll down to "PGN Upload Utility". It is virtually at the bottom.

  MissScarlett: <How do I <add> a game to the database?>

The word is <submit>. It will have to pass our extremely rigorous selection process. A [Source] tag for games before the computer era will definitely aid its path.

Sep-14-25  stone free or die: "<MIssy> - The word is <submit>."

And I thought I was pedantic!?!

* * * *

<<1959H>: How do I add a game to the database?>

As <WannaBe> noted, there is an upload link on the <CG> homepage. I'll put the link here for convenience as well:

https://www.chessgames.com/nodejs/u...

Please read the guidelines, and if you're confused about the <Source> tag ask over on the <Biographer Bistro>:

  MissScarlett: The editors' page - at my end, at least - is in limbo. We see the message box 'Getting user uploads...' but they never arrive. No Grand Swiss game updates until they do.
