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? Dirk Ghysens (2006-09-06 08:14:02) 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 (2006-09-18 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. Henri Muller (2006-09-19 12:53:49) 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 (2006-10-19 01:06:14) En route Marsch Marsch! Bis zum Limpopo oder Popocatepetl. Dirk Ghysens (2007-06-07 08:13:30) Ehlvest Rybka's GM challenger will be Ehlvest (again); in an earlier match, Ehlvest (Elo 2643) received Pawn odds and lost. Dirk Ghysens (2007-06-13 16:55:29) 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. 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. Dirk Ghysens (2007-06-18 06:11:14) 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 (2007-08-30 01:56:16) Poland Tomasz Markowski and "rybka" Iweta Rajlich. Dirk Ghysens (2007-09-14 08:56:24) Blondes Why don't blondes play go? Because they prefer coloured smarties. 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. 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 (2008-05-20 07:12:26) Junior I believe the latest version of Junior is Junior 10. Dirk Ghysens (2008-07-10 20:58:41) Poll I would never participate in a poll of my own free will. 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. There are 34 results for Ghysens in wikichess. 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. ============ Contributors : Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2187) e4 e6 d4 d5 Nc3 Nf6 Bg5 Bb4 e5 The main continuation, and the only one which gives Black opening problems. ============ Contributors : Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2187) e4 e6 d4 d5 Nc3 Nf6 Bg5 Bb4 e5 h6 Bd2 Lasker's move; Black is now forced to exchange on c3. ============ Contributors : Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2187) 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. ============ Contributors : Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2187) 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. ============ Contributors : Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2187) e4 e5 d4 exd4 Qxd4 Nc6 Qe3 Nf6 Nc3 Bb4 Bd2 O-O O-O-O Re8 Bc4 Na5 Bd3 d5 Qg3 dxe4 Nxe4 Nxe4 Bxe4 Bxd2+ Rxd2 Qe7 Black has a comfortable game (Keres). ============ Contributors : Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2245) 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). ============ Contributors : Telmo Escobar, Don Burden, Dirk Ghysens Dirk Ghysens (2245) e4 e5 Nf3 Nc6 Bc4 Bc5 b4 Bxb4 c3 Ba5 d4 exd4 O-O d3 Qb3 Qf6 e5 Qg6 Re1 Nge7 Ba3 b5 Qxb5 Rb8 Qa4 Bb6 Nbd2 Bb7 Ne4 Qf5 Bxd3 Qh5 Nf6+ gxf6 exf6 Rg8 Rad1 Qh3 19...
