| Feb-22-22 | | Z truth 000000001: <Tab> I can offer an improvement or two (most only stylistic). But let's start by acknowledging your writeup starts out as excellent - and should be used as a <CG> model. Maybe later I'll post more, but let's say that pretty much anything <Tab> had done on <CG> should be marked premium-grade. (With the possible exception of the Stumpers page - ha!) |

 | | Stonehenge: Sometimes after updating something on CG, the page seems to be waiting for www.google.com (at least that's what I see on the bottom left side of the screen) and then I get the message <Unable to connect to the reCAPTCHA service. Please check your internet connection and reload the page to receive a reCAPTCHA challenge.> |

| | Stonehenge: It also happens by just clicking on a page, not only after updating. And then on a random player page <Search Google for (insert player name)> doesn't work either. |

 | | MissScarlett: Another glitch in the matrix....
Fischer vs J Pascual, 1967 shows up not under 2.Nc3, but 2.Nf3 in: Repertoire Explorer: Robert James Fischer (white) |

Fischer vs J Pascual, 1967 shows up not under 2.Nc3, but 2.Nf3 in: Repertoire Explorer: Robert James Fischer (white)> Maybe because the only source for the game I know (the one you yourself gave, i.e. http://metrolirot.blogspot.co.uk/20...) has 2.Nf3. So perhaps the change of moves was a recent edit, not that I'm pointing figures, but the finger likely points at <FSR> (he does, I think, have such editor powers (or not?)). If the game score was changed after the last opening explorer build, well, that might expect such a situation might it not? . |

| Feb-27-22 | | Z free or die: Instead of <Another glitch in the matrix...> I would label it as <Another day in the <CG> office> The <CG> db being somewhat of a giant bowl of jiggling and wiggling jello, or should that be a giant bowl of <SwitchingQuylthulg>? |
|
| Feb-27-22 | | Z free or die: If you want a glitch, well I've got one of those too... Received an otherwise blank page with this message: <Unknown player 'gyula breyer?kpage=4'.
Try our search engine?>
[unknown player] When doing an <Earlier Kibitzing> from this page: <Gyula Breyer> This happened more than once tonight, and it's something I've never seen before. Reloading the "bum" page doesn't fix it. Nor does monkeying around with the url to try kpage=3: [unknown player] . |

| | MissScarlett: <So perhaps the change of moves was a recent edit, not that I'm pointing figures, but the finger likely points at <FSR> (he does, I think, have such editor powers (or not?)).> But your comment from 2015 shows it was 2.Nc3 then. And <FSR> isn't an editor, although anyone can submit a correction. |

| | MissScarlett: Fischer was experimenting with 2.Nc3 around this time: https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... |
|
| Feb-27-22 | | Z free or die: <Missy> yes, maybe it was 2.Nc3 before my post, and some editor changed it to 2.Nf3, after my post(*). Then, for quite a while, the opening explorer used this 2.Nf3 corrected version - maybe up to the last time it was run. But more recently, if I may surmise, <FSR> makes a post about Fischer experimenting with 2.Nc3 (which I think is the source for your comment above). OK then, and once again making an assumption on my part, somebody on <CG> sees <FSR>'s post, and changes the game score back to 2.Nc3. Now the game matches the condition at the time I made my very old post. Which is what you noted above. Are you following all that?
Because this kind of stuff is happening *all the time* on <CG>, even if not for this particular game. Piggly wiggly.
* * * * *
(*) After all, the blog mentioned in my old post claims the score comes from Pascual himself - so my vote is still for 2.Nf3. Certainly until I see a different potential source.(**) (**) Where else, besides <CG>, does a post need footnotes? |

 | | FSR: <Z free or die> I do not have the ability to edit game scores on this site. (I can create and edit player bios, and often do so.) Nor have I ever submitted a correction slip for Fischer vs J Pascual, 1967. I only learned of that game two days ago. I certainly would not consider my observation at that time that Fischer occasionally played 2.Nc3 sufficient to change the score of the game. Making a change for that reason would be stupid, particularly given that he played 2.Nf3 much more often. Repertoire Explorer: Robert James Fischer (white). If the 2.Nf3 version indeed comes from Pascual himself, I agree with you that that would very likely be the most authoritative version, absent a contrary version by Fischer himself, which almost surely does not exist. I have compiled a collection of games where there appears to me to be an error in the game score. Game Collection: Games with notation errors. Where possible, I have submitted a correction slip to chessgames. I only do so where I consider the evidence that there was an error, and that my proposed correction is indeed correct, to be clear and convincing. Sometimes chessgames makes my suggested correction, sometimes not. |
|
| Feb-28-22 | | Z free or die: <FSR> Yes, please accept my sincere apologies. I should have been more circumspect in invoking your involvement in my wild-ass speculation on the behind-the-scenes <CG> game/opening machinations . (I would say humblest apologies, but let's face it, I don't apparently do humble so well!) |

| | Stonehenge: Well done :) |
|
| Mar-11-22 | | whiteshark: minor problem:
While yesterdays MVL vs Rapport game of the FIDE Grand Prix Belgrade (2022) has a gid in Vachier-Lagrave vs Rapport, 2022 it redirects to Live Broadcast Page |
|
| Mar-11-22 | | whiteshark: it's even worse as it redirects to / contains their 1st game Rapport vs Vachier-Lagrave, 2022 so the moves of game 2 are completly missing |

| | MissScarlett: <1270384|Filip|Tolush|Sideways, Kazimirovich! (An Englishman) > Steve, could you remove this from my pending <GOTD> list. I meant to delete the submission, not promote it, as the pun has already been used. Submissions used before the introduction of the new system were not automatically deleted. |

| Mar-12-22 | | Z truth 000000001: Ever get that bad game recovered? |
|
Mar-12-22
| | MissScarlett: <<This game needs recovering: [bad chessgames.com link] > >Does it look like it? |
|
| Mar-12-22 | | Z truth 000000001: Looks like s/o is having a bad hair day. |
|
| Mar-18-22 | | Z free or die: gid = 2203768
still isn't there.
Does <Missy> know what game it is? Did it have a sizeable kibitzing? Makes me wonder a little if there's a chronology of gid's on <CG>? (There should be a public log where a gid could be mapped to a creation date, but even having a timeline of what gid started out a given year would be useful (or so I think)) |
