Unable to delete due to the comment pointing out that it's wrongly attributed. :-P      Jan-06-26 William DeVisser   jnpope: <Stonehenge: I asked because of a correction slip saying the name was wrong.> We will get correction slips no matter which spelling we go with.

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 16 OF 16 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jun-05-25    Stonehenge: I've uploaded some games by Hercule Goudjou. Mostly from https://www.arhisah.ro/wp-content/u... and one from http://heritageechecsfra.free.fr/18.... Not sure what this is: Paris (1881). Aug-03-25    jnpope: Game Collection: R R Sah Sep-18-25    jnpope: Thought for the day: "Colbert: cancelled. Kimmel: cancelled. Free speech: cancelled. Health care: cancelled. Education: cancelled. Vaccinations against horrible diseases: you bet they're cancelled. Sounds like the GOP is the real cancel culture in Murica." Nov-15-25    Lissowski: I also would be lucky to contact rhmberger. Tomasz Lissowski Nov-15-25    jnpope: <Lissowski> and <rhmberger>, please feel free to use my forum to interact with each other until you can arrange a more private way to communicate with each other (if necessary). Nov-16-25    Lissowski: with maintaining all the canons of respect for privacy - selbstverständlich! Nov-17-25    jnpope: <Lissowski>, I believe I've done all I can. I hope you two are able to reach each other. Nov-19-25    rhmberger: User: Lissowski My mistake. I should have checked whether the alias was actually created. Leading digits are not allowed. Please use 'mnG5hzF6zTiSN' (at) wtnet.de. Nov-20-25    jnpope: <rhmberger>, I'm not sure if they will see your post in time, so I've sent the original request to your wtnet.de account. Nov-23-25    mifralu: Pillsbury book, p. 550 Pillsbury vs W B Dixon, 1903 <WB Dixon = William Barber Dixon (1 April 1872 – 15 May 1951) > https://www.ecforum.org.uk/viewtopi... https://www.familysearch.org/en/tre... https://de.findagrave.com/memorial/... http://www.edochess.ca/players/p460...

Südwestdeutsche Schach-Zeitung, v.4 = <1889> <NEW:> Süddeutsche Schach-Zeitung, v.5 = <1890> https://books.google.de/books?id=8v... Nov-30-25    jnpope: Thanks.

Rxg3> (which would lead to checkmate for White) to <53. ...Re5 54. Rxf4+ 1/2-1/2.> BTW, the game was played in Memphis, and The Commercial Appeal was also published in Memphis, not Nashville. Dec-28-25    jnpope: <Many thanks for your efforts, I only changed <53. ...fxg3 54. Rxg3> (which would lead to checkmate for White) to <53. ...Re5 54. Rxf4+ 1/2-1/2.>> Black is definitely winning after 53..fxg3 54. Rxg3 Rf8! (and Black mates in 19 moves). I think Maroczy saw he was losing and offered a draw hoping Jefferson didn't see it. Memphis > Nashville (ack! I was late for my daily nap!). Sending you the graphical re-construction along with my notes. Dec-28-25    jnpope: Forgot to send my notes: 1) Moves 16 and 17 for both are re-sequenced as they appear to be printed out of order. 2) White's 26th and 27th moves inserted where they belong with White's subsequent moves dropping down two spots (which makes everything play through). 3) 40...R-Kt3! isn't given as a check, so 40...Rb6 appears to have been played. 4) 49...Rc6 used (silicon beast thinks it is stronger than 49...Rf6).
