Through the Years: Long Correspondence

Sry for being a little thick—how can that be? In my counting 9 games means 18 players …

Some players are playing more than one game

Oh… thx, I didn’t know that was possible in a tournament.

Oh, wait … dang, sure, I also played more than one game here. :see_no_evil::see_no_evil::see_no_evil: No idea what I was thinking. Uhm, probably as much thinking as in those games I lost shamefully :roll_eyes:

What is the game with the less moves (just over 100)?
Otherwise said, is there a list of all remaining games, w/o loading the whole tournament page?

Yes, see Through the Years: Long Correspondence - #1310 by Atorrante

Some of those games have recently been finished.

Jametto vs 9981 : cancelled
osalan vs Naci Erdem : just an awful slaughter, should be declared finished by a mod

Ouch!
Yet, they have a right to play it to the end, IMHO.

You know, I didn’t want to go into that much detail about that specific game because …

  • the game is still ongoing, and …

  • the players might be reading here

:wink:

Thanks, @trohde, it’s a pity that some do comments on an unfinished game.

The info about the points is public info. Everyone can access that info.

Players and spectators see a different accuracy of score estimator. I’ve removed your previous post.

Please do not comment on ongoing games.

Yes, players could read that, so what? I would stick to the position that when you are so down below, you should resign. Independently of the specific context of this tournament.

But legally, yes, they have a right to play until the end, even if there is not much interest left in this endgame, and it’s not as if hundreds of people were waiting for the next round to start. :innocent:

OK. Guilty as charged.

Ouf… that might pose a problem … any player can log out and see a more accurate version of the estimation then, no? Should we perhaps change that?

(And yes, I knew that you can also see my MLog then for a long time already, but I don’t really care—if anyone wants to cheat in a game with ME, of all measly Kyus, they prolly really need it :smiley: )

Isn’t viewing one’s own ongoing games from another account or logged out cheating for this reason and others like it? Doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen, of course, but I’d like to think most people aren’t cheaters

Yeah, same here — I simply feel better thinking this way :slight_smile:
