Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-04-15 16:46:29) Vacation I agree with Hannes. And I would like to take a leave in one or another but not necessarily in all of my tournaments. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-04-16 15:54:24) No need to receive his own moves? Dear Thibault, sorry but I would like to receive my move as mail, especially if I add a message to my move. And in the case of a server-crash it could be helpful to have the total protocol of my games on my computer. Don't you think so? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-13 17:58:51) Swiss Hello Thibault, Chessfriend.com has started the Championship as a 3 rounds Swiss tournament. Why don't we try this form under the name FICGS-CUP? I have liked the mode. Heinz-Georg Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-14 00:47:20) Swiss Hello Thibault these are the "rules" (see at http://www.chessfriend.com/ and then Tournaments-CFC World-Championship-CFC Championship 2003) Modus: 3 rounds Swiss à 10 games each. ... Every player is allowed to participate in all 3 rounds. Pairings of the 1st round are based on rating. We will build equal groups where possible. In the second round we will do the pairings so that be build at first 3 groups depending on score and rating. Among this three groups we will build new tournaments which should be of about equal rating.. Third round will be paired in the same way with the exception that the first group will be the strongest (score and rating). Normally two players should play during a championship cycle only one game. If it will be necessary in a following round that two players play a second game, this game should be played with revised colours. I will send you more information. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-14 17:29:59) Swiss and Blitz Cup Hello Thibault Swiss tournament was only a suggestion. I don't like knockout tournaments - too many rounds (7 if 128 players want to play), great problems, if not the right number of players is available or players withdraw. If you have only 30 days for the whole game, it is much better to live on the "right" continent relative to your opponent. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-29 13:14:29) Remaining time on page "My Games" Dear Thibault the same problem - another suggestion. My preferred page is "My games". Is it possible to add the remaining time of both players (or at least of the player to move)? Heinz-Georg Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-29 13:51:27) Remaining time Hello Thibault! What a pity! Everything I would like is a short overview of my running games - with the remaining time(s). I don't need the start date of the tournament at this page. You can delete it to get more space. My messages doesn't contain further information which I need. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-29 16:40:45) Remaining time : added ! Now it's great. Thanks for the fast change! Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-29 20:47:01) Big chess The middlegame could be a challenge, particularly if you have no board to test the consequences of your move. And what do you think about an endgame with 12 pawns and 3 rook or 5 knights on each side? What are the values of the pieces? There is much to investigate there. Perhaps I should write a computer program ... (just a joke) Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-05-29 23:44:30) Value of the pieces... A bishop against two pawns - never if it is not mate. You have two open lines and I lack an important piece. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-14 12:08:12) FICGS 1st chess world championship Hello Thibault I don't like your rules. I think it would have been better if all players start in the 1st wch (this time and in future cycles). It would be more attractive for the most players. What do you think is the rating average of the 1st stage groups? I cannot remember that the 2300-restriction was in the rules when I have registered ... Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-14 14:40:34) FICGS 1st chess world championship Hello Thibault! Thank you for your answer. Two points: It isn't sure at all that a player with a rating > 2400 will win his group if he had to play a 1st stage group. The CFC-Ch 2003 has shown, that less than 50 percent of the best rating players (even players with rating > 2600) have won their qualification groups. In the moment we have about 100 players with a rating < 2300 who have registered themselves for the wch. Their rating avarage is about 1720 (!). Is that right? This means (if I understand your rules) the wch groups of the 1st stage will have this rating (+ or - some points). In these groups for a 2200 player it is nearly impossible (even as winner of a group) to get a tournament performance > 2050 (I suspect that this is the reason that players with rating > 2300 not have to play this stage). After the first stage the distance to 2300 will be greater than before. I have registered myself and I will play. But I'm not really satisfied with that situation. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-14 15:20:18) Rating formula (repetition) Daniel De Noose (2006-06-15 15:17:03) Not very satisfy too... Like Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff, when I registered the tournament it was announced as 1st championship and open to everyone. I don't like when rules change after the registration. Secundo, if you only reserve this 1st tournament to players with rating over 2300, you can change my rating : on the "correspondence" chess site chess-mail I'm over 2370. But as I said to you when I began here I want to improve my real rating beginning like an unrated. But if now the rating is so important to play the 1st championship, I prefer to be correctly rated. Hoping you'll change all this and play really the 1st championship with everybody. My actual rating in "correspondence chess" : - chess-mail : kasapov (2370) - echecsemail : danideno (2280) - echecsnet : danideno (2271; but it is the highest rating of this site) Daniel Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-14 15:32:51) Rating formula Hello Thibault! Where can I found the exact rating rules of FICGS? I have found only these lines in the Memberships - Terms and Conditions: "11. 7. Rating rules The FICGS rating scheme is a numerical scheme, in which percentage results can be exchanged into rating differences, and rating differences into percentage performance probabilities. It is mainly based on the principles of rating calculations of prof. Arpad Elo. The rating formula : New Elo = ((16 x Elo) + (Games x Perf)) / (16 + Games) ..." What means "mainly based"? You write in another topic "1. The rating system do not take account of wins when the ELO difference is superior to 350 points " Is this valid only for wins or for all games with a rating difference of more than 350 points? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-16 11:35:05) Elo rating calculation Hello Thibault! How are provisional ratings are treated? Two notes to the rules: 1. You write: "Bonus is given by the Percentage (100 * Points / Games) obtained" and "If the percentage is negative, ..." Percentage cannot be negative. I think you mean: If percentage < 50 2. You write "Please note that Bonus is limited to 470 points". Why do you write other values for 96-99 % in the Bonus-Table? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-16 13:55:54) Statistics, ELO and performances Hello Thibault! "About performance, that's not quite true a 2200 player couldn't perform more than 2050 in stage" Maybe you are right, if most of the players have an established rating. But you can see at the rating list that more than 50 percent of our ratings are provisional - most of them with 1700. The question is how many of these players are good or very good (like Daniel)? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-18 14:10:23) FICGS 1st wch (my last try) Hello to all, I think it would be better to start our 1st wch with the regular rules (knock-out and round robin)? Players with rating > 2300 who are not starting in the knock-out can start in the 1st stage of the round robin if they want. If they do not win their group they can neverthless start in the second stage (if their rating is > 2300) of the 1st wch. World champion is the winner of a 24 game knock-out between the winner of the 3rd stage round robin and the 3rd stage knock-out. What do you think about this? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-19 15:45:34) FICGS 1st wch Hello Thibault! It seems that I haven't really understood what will happen on July 1st. You write "Thus 1st wch is a complete cycle". Does this mean, that the knock-out tournaments of the 8 players with the highest established rating also will start (stage 1)? If not it is not a complete cycle according to FICGS (your) rules - in my opinion. What happens if a player has a rating > 2300 at the beginning of stage 1 and a rating < 2300 at the beginning of stage 2? May he play stage 2? What happens if a player has a rating < 2300 at the beginning of stage 1 and a rating > 2300 at the beginning of stage 2? May he play stage 2 even if he hasn't won his round robin group? The rating at which time is essential? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-06-19 20:29:55) FICGS 1st world championship Hello Thibault, thank you for your answer. Even I have understood this now. I have always missed the knock-out tournaments in the postings. It wasn't clear to me (and I was probably the only one ...) whether these tournaments take place also. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-07-09 00:46:13) Leave/Reflection Time Dear chessfriends! In my dreams a perfect server has the following time rules. Normal tournaments: - 30 days with an increment of 30 days/ 10 moves - 100 days maximum accumulated time - 30 days maximum limit for one move - 4 weeks leave per tournament (!) for every year since the start of the tournament - no time lost or added during leaves - a move in a tournament during a leave stops the leave in all games of this tournament - all time calculated by a running clock in hours and minutes Rapid tournaments - 30 days start +1 day added per move - 45 days maximum accumulated time - 30 days maximum limit for one move - no leave - all time calculated by a running clock in hours and minutes By the way, the world championship should not be a rapid tournament. But how I said these are my dreams ... Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-07-10 20:06:15) Vacation and reflection time Hi Thibault Vacation seems to be a great problem on all chess servers. The way you manage it is very special. I don't think, that your way is "hard to use". Of course you can always abuse vacation to have more time in time trouble. But your way is very easy. Take 10 days of vacation and play on. And at the end of a year add the not consumed vacation to the reflection time of all of your games. Now you suggest that a player can not play during his vacation. That is ok. But if the player starts playing during his vacation "loosing the days leave taken and not used yet" is not ok. "Maybe it won't be appreciated in some particular cases". Too much and unnecessary administration. Let the server work. You don't want to give up your concept (adding vacation time to the reflection time), am I right? You already have announced the corrections on "My messages". If you must change your concept, you would have to rewrite parts of the software. Nevertheless I would like to say how I imagine the vacation rules on my "perfect server". I can make the following things with my 4 weeks of holiday: - If I'm on holiday far away from home or don't like to play chess for a while, I can take a leave in all tournaments. - If I have much work (sorry - I had to earn money and my employer doesn't take it into consideration, that I would like to play more chess) and can't take care of all tournaments for a while, I take a leave in single tournaments. If the overload is past, I play on without losing the vacation which I perhaps haven't taken. - I cannot take a leave in a rapid tournament. That is ok - rapid means rapid. There shouldn't be any way to get more time for reflection in this kind of tournament. It's a pity that no more players express their opinion on this topic in this forum. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-07-12 20:12:40) Tournament entry rating Hello Thibault! Am I right that my TER (tournament entry rating) is not essential for the calculation of my new FIGCS - ELO - rating. If I'm not right, in which variable can I find it? I thought the difference of my opponents and my own rating at the beginning of the tournament would be of importance. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-07-15 17:40:05) Big chess Hi Thibault! No time to continue the game? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-08-14 16:46:36) Activities on the FICGS server Hello Thibault, nice statistics! Can you tell us how many of the FICGS members have started to play at least one game of chess, one game of go, and how many haven't started to play any game at all? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-08-15 17:32:04) Statistics Some suggestions: - all winners of a tournament (including the number of won tournaments) - the player which plays or has ended most games - the player which has obtained most points Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-05 17:03:50) Time to display all informations 35 seconds - but the page is great Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-05 17:35:32) Another try... ~ 30 seconds. Browser IE 6, Speed 3 Mbit/s Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-05 17:52:21) Time to display all informations Pentium 4, 3 GHz I have closed all "working" applications (Word, Excel), but the time is the same. How much time takes your browser? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-05 18:26:38) Time to display all informations No reason to laugh. Excuse my question! I hope you don't have to develop these wonderful programs at this computer ... Or with what have you earned this punishment? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-05 23:13:06) Time to display all informations ... watching videos, hunting for divX and mp3? What's that all? No time! I had to find the next move in the game no 1 Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-06 09:04:10) Time to display all informations ~ 15 seconds now. I suspect the program uses most of the time to collect the information from the database tables. If I save the page it needs less than 400 kilobytes. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-06 14:16:25) Time to display all informations yes, it is much faster than the first version. Two remarks: - The reflection time also is shown if the game is already ended - and the time goes on. - What does it mean if a text stands above the diagram? Example: in the game 1626 (FICGS__CHESS__WCH_STAGE_1_GROUP_12__000001) I can read "ok". Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-10 14:41:52) Money torunaments Hi Dinesh ! I doubt that more money tournaments as free tournaments will take place. And in the moment the waiting lists aren't filling very fast. The period of the first registration up to the start of a tournament gets only even longer by the additional money tournaments. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-09-30 13:47:43) No change Hello Thibault. I agree with Peter: no change of the timekeeping, please. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-12-04 21:39:34) Too late Hello Thibault! now I have seen that you have restricted the number of participants of this great tournament to 5 - and I'm too late. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-12-04 23:24:35) I'm in Ok, just for fun ... Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2006-12-06 17:36:19) Welcome Hi Volker, what a surprise! So you don't have enough games yet ... Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-01-21 15:16:26) Chess ratings I have formatted my message (and partly corrected) to be able to read the text better. Rating system: Look at this situation: Current rating ot the player: 2200, 10 games, all players with TER 2200, result 9=, 1+ Case 1: Finished games: 01.01-28.02: 9= New rating 01.03: 2200 01.03. 1+, no other finished games in this period: --> New rating 01.05: 2228 Case 2: Finished games 01.01-28.02: 9=, 1+ --> New rating 01.03: 2214 In case 1 the value of the won game was 28, in case two it was 14. IMO the value of a result should not depend from the number of games you have finished in a period. The value of a result only should depend on the rating of both players that they have at the start (preferable) or at the finish date of the game and the result. And the rating formula should be like NewRating = LastRating + SumOfAllValuesOfFinishedGamesInThisPeriod. That's the way (idea) IECG is computing the ratings. Thibault de Vassal (2007-03-11 23:44:31) Quotes from the forum... I picked up a few ones from the forum ! .. I have great ones by Elmer Valderrama, Ilmars Cirulis, Don Groves and Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff. I keep it secret and I'll add it very soon, I think the authors will appreciate :) Feel free to suggest me other ones... Phil, about your quote it also happen at chess ;) Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-04-05 16:06:36) BigChess Championship Hello to all. BigChess is a great game. No books, no engines, and no ratings! A BigChess Championship is an excellent idea. I think that everyone should be able to take part in this tournament. And - if possible - it should start as soon as possible. If we must wait until 7 different players (not seven times Thibault :-) ) have won a tournament, then the Championship probably starts only in 2009. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-04-06 00:07:27) BigChess Championship Ok, but perhaps you can change the condition to select the seven players. Maybe you can give points for place 1 to 4 (1. = 7 pts, 2. = 5 pts, 3. = 3 pts, 4. = 1 point) in every tournament, which wasn't finished at the start of the last Championship. The seven players with the most points are qualified for your single round-robin tournament. Or is this too complicated? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-04-13 01:20:14) Active players rating list Because of the 60-days rule maybe you should display the players who connected to the server during the last 60 days? Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-05-01 19:57:43) Rules The rules are two clicks away: First click "Help" and then "FICGS general rules". Are the WCH rules visible on the side of the WCH waiting list, if the waiting list is open? Thibault de Vassal (2007-06-20 15:46:39) Players for FICGS team (by rating) Here is the complete list of players who registered for the FICGS vs IGAME.RU match. Unfortunately, a few players couldn't play :( .. I think our team is strong enough, as rating rules are quite hard at FICGS and some ratings are still provisional. I don't know how players will be distributed on "tables", if it's freestyle I think Wolfgang should play at table 1. I am also surprised to see players coming from IGAME.RU or russian forums who entered FICGS team !? .. Anyway, I'm sure there are no spies :) Thibault de Vassal (2512) Mark Noble (2496) Wolfgang Utesch (2466) Albert Popov (2463) Michael Aigner (2354) Janos Helmer (2343) Miguel Pires (2270) Leszek Tymcio (2270) Alexander Shalamanov (2252) Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2246) Silviu Nenciulescu (2194) William Taylor (2182) Poulerik Jorgensen (2168) Wayne Lowrance (2124) Edward Kotlyansky (2114) Christophe Czekaj (2098) Konstantin Dudulec (2084) Polina Romanova (2000) Dan Rotaru (1937) Nick Burrows (1884) Garvin Gray (1863) Vadim Khachaturov (1803) Janusz Kepinski (1599) Alexander Nent (1593) Graham Cridland (1406) Edmilson B. Lima (1400) Sasha Lipsits (1400) Ilmars Cirulis (1305 ~ >2100) Than Serd (1300) Charlie Neil (1212) Phil Cook (1132) Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-06-26 21:41:21) 30 days / year is enough I think 30 days / year is enough. If you fear that you could get time problems don't play too many and avoid Rapid tournaments. Nobody forces you to enter every waiting list. And according to Murphy's Law "such things as computers breaking down, computers hit with viruses, business travel commitments, planning a holiday etc." always happen if you have no more vacation. Thibault de Vassal (2007-06-27 21:18:36) FICGS vs. IGAME.RU, the games Hello to all. The friendly match between FICGS & IGAME.RU teams just started :) http://www.ficgs.com/tournament_FICGS__CHESS__FICGS_VS_IGAME_RU_MATCH.html I'd like to thank Sergey Pligin for organizing this match and all players who registered to play. I apologize to the players who couldn't play :/ .. 25 boards was not enough this time. To build FICGS team I selected players with the highest ratings but one cause his rating should be clearly >2000 already. Also IM Mark Noble plays at table 6 because his opponent is another FIDE IM. I wish good games to everyone, this is a great opportunity for us to meet russian chessfriends.

Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-07-09 17:40:17) FICGS__CHESS__WORLD_CHAMPIONSHIP Thibault will be back home tomorrow, so the wch will start in the (tuesday) evening ! Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-09-19 18:02:57) New options in Preferences Hello Thibault! Nice update, but ... Is it possible to set in the preferences how to start a FICGS session? I would like to have "display all games" and "slow moves" as default ... Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-09-23 17:24:17) 50 moves rule Hello Wolfgang, look at the Playing rules (http://ficgs.com/membership.html#playing, 11.3.a.) Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-11-11 16:04:50) Number of games limitation Hi Thibault, I prefer: no limitations. But if you think FICGS need it: 60 games. Best wishes Heinz-Georg Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-04-07 15:56:48) Call referee Hi Lincoln, there is one of the FAQs: Question - My opponent is checkmated, why the game isn't finished ? It's a more friendly way and your opponent can send a last message to you. If he does not resign, he will lose on time anyway. (you can call referee if it takes too much time) So in case of a checkmate you can call referee. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-05-12 20:02:28) Rating changes Hello to all, I think a player should be removed from the waiting list if his rating is out of the restriction of the tournament. In my opinion TER means the rating at the start of the tournament not at the entry into the waiting list. If the tournament starts the current rating is used as TER. For example in FICGS__CHESS__CLASS_M__000015 the games with Jason (!) and Sandor were rated with 2174 and 2147 and not with >= 2200 (their ratings when they entered the waiting list). No words in the rules about this theme? Best, Heinz-Georg Jason Repa (2008-05-12 21:42:44) Rating changes Nice of you to quote the one single solitary "M" class tournament that I was a few points short of 2200, out of the 7 such tournaments that I've played in, Mr. Lehnhoff, But my point stands. I would have had no problem waiting one more rating cycle back then if the rules were such to maintain the integrity of the rating categories. As for the provocation that's going on here....It's amazing the lengths someone will go to for petty "revenge" after you beat them in chess. Also, there is no point in quoting a "future rating" if you're not taking into consideration your losing games, some of which may end before the next rating cycle begins, that may indeed put someone under 2200. Thibault de Vassal (2008-07-01 17:10:49) Big chess in russian forums Quite funny to see a Big chess game (Lehnhoff - de Vassal :)) discussed in a russian forum, even if I don't understand a single word of the discussion - any help welcome :/ http://kasparovchess.crestbook.com/viewtopic.php?pid=181338 We definitely need more Big chess players, great game - let's have fun ! :) Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-07-17 00:42:45) Mirroring moves Hello Thibault, I think it is not possible to decide if a player mirrors moves ("plays simultaneously the same game ...") in two games before the two games have been finished. Best, Heinz-Georg Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-09-18 20:13:56) Big Chess Championship Hello Thibault, let us start this championship! Best, Heinz-Georg Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-09-22 23:32:54) Big Chess Championship I think, the Big Chess Championship should be announced as a championship. We should not use this M-tournament instead. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-09-28 16:45:05) Big Chess Championship To drive this theme I propose a champions-league-type tournament with a new round every 18 month. At the beginning the groups can be built according to our rating list. Other ideas? Best, Heinz-Georg Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-09-28 22:33:50) Big Chess Championship I don't like the idea to exclude players with a minor rating. And the length / duration of a Big Chess game does not depend on the mode of the tournament. Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2008-10-03 13:41:21) Time limit is part of the game I agree with Marcus, Don and Michael. I think, there is neither a reason to change the results in your games, Thibault, nor to change the rules.
