< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 78 OF 459 ·  Later Kibitzing> Apr-10-20    Annie K.: No, cg was never set up for this sort of thing. Although if the game is very interesting, it could be imported as an unorthodox ([ECO "000"], [SetUp "1"]) game with the start FEN given as the position after the pass, and possibly the moves before it provided as annotation. Apr-11-20    jnpope: Good to know, however I was just curious if I could upload the early Italian championships. There are far too many games with castling variations to do the FEN trick, and I'm not sure how that works when both sides castle à la Italian. Apr-11-20    Annie K.: Your start FEN would have to be the position after the last irregular move. :) Apr-11-20    jnpope: <Annie> I sent in a request to assign those Strauss-Steinitz games to "Heinrich Strauss" along with a forwarding email address that you can test. Apr-12-20    OhioChessFan: An Easter theme on the homepage would be in order... Apr-12-20    jnpope: Unless you are Greek Orthodox and then we need an Easter theme in a week... Apr-12-20    Annie K.: <jnpope> ok, processed, and look for a mail. :) Apr-12-20    jnpope: <Let's see if this works... :) > It worked! Apr-12-20    Annie K.: That's one of my favorite two-word expressions! Apr-12-20    OhioChessFan: When I spend 1 unit of fuel on analysis, it's 15 seconds a ply, not 15 seconds a move, as the analysis incorrectly states. Apr-12-20    OhioChessFan: I think. :p Apr-15-20    thegoodanarchist: Need a little help, chessgames. What is the minimum character length for a post? I tried to post 'LOL' in my own forum, but every time I hit "post kibitz" it would just reload the kibitz preview. Apr-15-20    thegoodanarchist: <jnpope: Also, what would it take to get Sargon to make/add the Source tag as an <<editable field?>> Pizza and a case of Mt. Dew?> That would make it an 'edible field'. Apr-15-20    thegoodanarchist: Not all of my jokes are that bad. Apr-15-20    Big Pawn: What kind of jokes are allowed during the coronavirus? Inside jokes. Apr-15-20    Susan Freeman: <thegoodanarchist> not sure but I think a post had to have a minimum of 15 characters. About 4 words in my vocabulary. I have had the same thing happen to me 😊 Apr-16-20    Annie K.:       Apr-16-20    Annie K.: No, just kidding. It's 5 characters minimum. ;) Apr-16-20    OhioChessFan:   Apr-16-20    thegoodanarchist: <Big Pawn: What kind of jokes are allowed during the coronavirus? Inside jokes.> That's a good one. Apr-16-20    thegoodanarchist: Backslash is in the building. Apr-16-20    rabarbaro: Chessgames: Thank you for correcting the auto-ban. In appreciation, may you enjoy this quarantine comedy for your site moderators and members. I saw this guy in a supermarket...: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n26... Apr-18-20    Diademas: Could it be an idea to have a "sandbox" page where the members could test out different features? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandb... Apr-18-20    AylerKupp: <chessgames> Given that many of us are stuck at home waiting for the coronavirus threat to subside, have you considered starting another Team White vs. Team Black game, with or without engine assist. We do, after all, probably have more free time on our hands and could use something extra to pass the time away. And the last game was Team White vs Team Black, 2017, started in 2017. Here's hoping that you can figure out how these games were implemented. Apr-18-20    MissScarlett: Anyone else having technical glitches with the site? Playing over games especially is very 'jumpy'.
