Hehe

AR If you read starter's competitive thread, it might clue you in a little more.

However, to save you the pain... Garvin supports the acc. swiss, I do not.

i dont support saving Amiel any pain .

I dont support acceleration in every case. I just believe that, correctly applied, acceleration is a very good option for the tournaments conditions at Ballarat.

Here is the list of players of the Ballarat Begonia:
Will try to generate and copy a xtable, but running out of time...
In the 4th round Smerdon beat Solomon in a very complicated game with Solomon having the better chances most of the time ( according to some prelim commenst). Smerdon is the only player on 4/4. Johansen drew with Bourmistrov (both on 3.5/4). Together with a few others..._

Starter, If you want to post here, post here. If you want to post on UCJ please do. But don't continue to just post links. Apart from anything else that board contains posts with highly unsavoury language.

[ursogr8]

Well Baz

Technically you have been brought undone by a technicality. Accidental, by me.
The here in post#24 does not go where I intended it to go. It does not go to the crude, lewd and rude at all. So your advice is misplaced, on this occasion.

However you have a huge store of goodwill, and even though your reputation is only at the 2 level (whereas most PREMIUMS, according to gg'' are at the 3), I respect your views.

Would you be comfortable if I just advised this board that I had posted something of interest elsewhere, without giving the link?

Why are we not conversing via PMs?

As you own the coyright you could post it in both places or just one, your choice. Cross board 'spamming' is discouraged.

We are not PMing as it is not private and I'm not going to enter into correspondence on the matter.

Would you be comfortable if I just advised this board that I had posted something of interest elsewhere, without giving the link?

Why can you not just post it here.
Perhaps if you wish to only post it over there and not post information here, you should seriously reconsider your reason for posting here at all.

I accept 100% your direction Baz.

Cross board spamming (whatever that is) did not occur.

Good, since future infractions will be summarily removed.
