You also said the way I was playing the Sicilian against you was... how did you put it.... "making it easy for you" :)

i'd definitely play that opening again. I lost the game, but that's beside the point :)

I know red, my point was... things appear differently depending whose eyes are upon it. Where you saw unusual play, I saw a path I had taken 1000 times before.

Also, sometimes you have to make risky moves to win an otherwise drawn game. When in doubt, I complicate the position, and play for the most tactically ornate arrangement.

That is my definition of fun.

Just look at this position to see something really fun!

tactics galore

The final round of the 35th German Correspondence Chess Championship starts now with 17 topplayers (wow,that means a lot of games simultaneously!).The tournement will be played on the traditional way with postcards only.One of the participants is our (in standard chess ) very strong member "Mely" (Uwe Mehlhorn ).Good luck, Uwe!

Here is the link with the tournement tableau: http://www.bdftabellen.de/spezial/dm-einzel/35dfme.htm

Относно: Re: using chess programs
Caissus, I would make a distinction between computer users, who are using a self written program and those who are using a foreign. The first is only a individual form of using one's experiences. Other player are querying through huge game databases also with computer support.

Относно: Re: using chess programs
Apart from the speed with which a computer program can evaluate a situation, what is the difference between refering to a computer sorted database and checking in, say, a book for the same scenario and possible lines of attack/defence which have been successful for others. I wonder if there was the same discussion when books on chess positions and reference voumes of played games first were published.

One reason I play little chess these days is that I have come to realise that I cannot compete with people with great experience who can rely upon a knowledge store of past games, strategies and tactics which I do not have. I prefer to play the variants where each game is new and strategies and tactics need to be worked out each time from scratch .... where storehouses of past games just do not exist.

big deal - and even obligatory for serious players who don't want to be
caught in the same standard traps together with the average masses, permanently.
I suggest to chose a less liked opening and to become a reference yourself, possibly. ~*~

One possibility to avoid this all is to play "live-chess"and a good reference could be the new " Schacharena"(unfortunately only in German until now).You can play there 15,30.45 and 60 minutes for the whole game each player,no client is necessary and it is completely free! And the best is that the webmaster perhaps wants to implementate 8x10 chess in the future!
Would be nice if we could play in this way here in Bk anytime.

BuilderQ: Yes, the 3rd castling was a mistake that none of the opponents spotted (or maybe one did !). Similarly, in the 250-moves game between the two maniacs, there was actually the same position repeated 3 times but they did not realize it ... (someone was brave enough to go through the game andfound out) :-)

even if it were not the rule, to force the program to have and calculate all the draw rules, especially the one about repetition of position 3 times, would be far too heavy on the system resources. better to resolve such positions manually by a referee.

Относно: ONE YEAR Rook Membership Contest......! Part-II
Well since last time nobody succedded, i will increase the prize..... So here is your chance to win a one year membership here, with a lot of effort of course........

The first one who will post at
Gothic Chess discussion board and only there, the correct answers to the above 4 questions, will win a 1 year Rook membership...........

The 4 questions are here.


***If there are no answers or any correct one until 10/02/2005, there will be no winner.......
***If someone posts more than 1 answer, then the accepted one, will be ONLY his last one. That means even if someone posts a correct answer before everyone, but posts another one later, not correct this time, he would not win as the accepted answer will be the last one. Even if anyone else hasn't answered correctly.......
***In the extremely rare case when there will be 2 or more correct answers at the exactly same time, the winner will be the one whose post will appear first at the Gothic Chess discussion board.
***I will post if there is a winner or not at 10/02/2005.

We should not compare the correspondence chess (here) with otb ratings.It`s another way to play.
A very good correspondence chess rating (at ICCF) has "Mely" with 2644!

As for the PC assistance, I hope it is not so widely used here. I believe people should put the info in their profile, if they do use it.

In my neighbourhood there lives a strong chessplayer "Roland Schmaltz".We played together in a team 8 years ago,when he was not so good and I was not so bad as today.

Now he is Grandmaster in OTB und 12.th of Germany (Fide Elo 2553)!.But his strongest playing he has in internet chess with "bullet" (one minute for the whole game).In this game he got some worldchampion titles with his in internetchess worldwide known Nick "Hawkeye".
>http://www.hawkeye.de/

You can meet him at "ICC" or "playchess.com" but you should be a very good "bullet"-player.
I don`t think that such a player would play in internet so slowly as we do here.

I never broke 2100 in Correspondence Play, but I did just barely qualify for the 10th US Championship (minimum was 2000+ correspondence rating and 2100+ OTB rating)

I lost my shirt in that tournament!

It is shown here, I scored only 7 out of 12, and was downgraded to a 1750 player after the event
