Applying FICGS rules

I just had a deeper look at the 12 games and I applied FICGS rules only (just like in the match Lacrosse-Ghysens).

According to me, Xavier has an advantage in game 28302, it is not so clear in game 28305 but IMO this game should be rated also. As a result, 4 games will be rated in this match, Xavier's future rating is now 2577.


Marc Lacrosse    (2009-05-01 00:02:15)
Rating or not

I just happened to be in the same situation in a wch semifinal against Dirk Ghysens : for some personal reason my opponent decided to withdraw.
All games were far beyond the 10th move.
Thibault decided that only two of the eight games should be kept for rating.
I do not understand why his decision seems to be completely different in the present case a few weeks later.


Marc Lacrosse    (2009-03-09 16:19:53)
Unserious openings in serious games!

"Sometimes I would like to experiment with some more or less unserious openings"

For what regards myself I do it all the time in rated games !

For example in my wch-05 semifinal match against D. Ghysens I am busy trying the Hampe-Algaier gambit (not a real success so far) and a Alekhine-Chatard one (much more promising) ... :)

So no need for special unrated tournaments for experimenting IMHO ...

Marc

PS you should have a look : this match will win the price for the most excentric openings in high-level correspondence chess (well I hope so).


Dirk Ghysens    (2008-07-13 18:29:25)
Disagree

There have been several 2200-2600 tournaments in which 2400+ players have started; in one of them even two 2500+ players participated. A well-known GM started in two such tournaments.
The 2400+ category tournaments fill up very slowly; it took about nine months for the last one to start.

Poll

I would never participate in a poll of my own free will.

Junior

I believe the latest version of Junior is Junior 10.


Dirk Ghysens    (2008-04-02 10:50:03)
Joke?

All information seems correct.

The only upsetting thing is that Judit Polgar is missing from the Players list.


Dirk Ghysens    (2007-09-14 09:28:07)
Openings

Why is the Indian Defense so strong?
Because there are more than a billion Indians.

What is the best weapon against a Sicilian?
An AK47 ... or fleeing.

Why doesn't anybody play the American Defense?
Because its moves are 'classified'.

Why wasn't the Scotch popular in the 1920's?
Because of the Prohibition.

Blondes

Why don't blondes play go?
Because they prefer coloured smarties.

Top programs

According to the CCRL rating list, the top programs today are: 1 Rybka 2 Zap!Chess 3 Hiarcs 4 Naum 5 Loop 6 Deep Shredder Fritz (7th) and Junior (8th) are so weak, that they cannot play a significant role in a world championship. The latest version of Rybka (2.3.2) can be estimated at more than 200 Elo points above Deep Fritz and Deep Junior. The SSDF rating list is unreliable IMO, as they are using antiquated hardware, and several of the best programs are missing.


Dirk Ghysens    (2007-06-16 04:06:23)
Not "dead man's defense"

This is not a case of dead man's defense, since the game started less than 20 days ago and they are at move 86. From international postal games I remember waiting more than 20 days for my opponent's 1st move. While it is allowed, certainly nobody can be obliged to consult 6 men tablebases. I'd also like to point out that the FIDE rules (which are mentioned in the FICGS rules) forbid a player to make disturbing remarks, and that a game cannot end by requesting your opponent to resign. Also posting such comments about ongoing games, trying to discredit the opponent, is unethical. The complainer should forfeit the game.

schach.de chatroom

In my opinion, the matter they are discussing is not very important. It is about a Mr. Holger Lieske, a person unknown to me, who is an administrator or moderator of the schach.de chatrooms, who _allegedly_ kicks out participants of the chatrooms without good reason. Some of the discutants announced that they will start a campaign against ChessBase on English-speaking forums.

Ehlvest

Rybka's GM challenger will be Ehlvest (again); in an earlier match, Ehlvest (Elo 2643) received Pawn odds and lost.

match GameKnot-FICGS

Hello Dirk (Ghysens ) Accordingly with you, there are exceptions - I said that 95% players from GameKnot used computers ! Therefore not 100% !!


Dirk Ghysens    (2006-09-18 10:33:56)
Not all, Henri

I know of two exceptions: 1. Yelena Dembo, FIDE rating 2466, WGM, IM, and a GM norm; rating at Gameknot 1775; 2. Marius Ceteras, FIDE rating 2427, FM (he missed IM title due to a strange decision by FIDE officials), very well-known correspondence chess personality, chess publisher, organiser etc.; rating at Gameknot 1740 (not in top 2000 there and loses regularly against 1800 rated patzers). Unfortunately Yelena Dembo is no longer playing at Gameknot; they threw her out. Also Marius Ceteras has no ongoing games there during the past month. So you may be right after all: most players above 1600 are using a chess engine (except the WIMs, WGMs, FMs, and IMs rated below 1800), and certainly all players above 1800 (with one possible exception, a WIM from Holland/Russia, who managed a rating slightly above 1800, but she got thrown out also, for being a nuisance). BTW, it boggles my mind why the use of tablebases is allowed there; unlike engines, tablebases tell you the perfect move to play and what the outcome will be with 100% certainty.

Time to display...

Here in Poland (384 Kb/sec) it took 22 seconds to download; during the first 13 seconds nothing was being downloaded, apparently.


Dirk Ghysens    (2006-09-05 12:16:53)
Time control in thematics

How about time controls in thematic tournaments? Suppose the first 12 moves are "given": are there still 40 days for the first 10 moves then?

19... Qh3!! and White's combination does not work; it's a draw after 20.Bf1 (only move) Qf5 21.Bd3 etc.

a3

Not very impressing, but it was played by Adolf Anderssen against Paul Morphy in their 1859 match. Anderssen subsequently used the variation, with more success, against other adversaries.

Anderssen scored 1.5/3 with it against Morphy (DG).

Black has a comfortable game (Keres).

e4 e5 d4 exd4 Qxd4 Nc6 Qe3 Nf6 Nc3 Bb4 Bd2 O-O O-O-O Re8 Bc4 Na5

A move which was first suggested by Keres.

e4 e5 d4 exd4 Qxd4 Nc6 Qe3

White's intention is to castle long, exert pressure along the d-file and to threaten Black's Kingside.

e4 e6 d4 d5 Nc3 Nf6 Bg5 Bb4 e5 h6 Bd2

Lasker's move; Black is now forced to exchange on c3.

e4 e6 d4 d5 Nc3 Nf6 Bg5 Bb4 e5

The main continuation, and the only one which gives Black opening problems.

============

Dirk Ghysens    (2187)
e4 e6 d4 d5 Nc3 Nf6 Bg5 Bb4

The MacCutcheon Variation, which is more aggressive than ...Be7. Its main defect is, that after exchanging the Bb4 (which is practically forced), Black will have weak dark squares.
