With decent play we ALL can win games from unexpected strong(er)? players. Just a matter of patient and- my advise- learn one or two good openings and work on from that. Any questions about opening moves just ask me by personal messages and i am pleased to help. Natacha |

| Posted by daniela nikto.net 6/15/2004 03:17:32 Play online chess | What's happening? Message: Why are so many of our players (and also ex-team mates) withdrawing from gameknot or loosing games for time-out? I know, some have explained that they have problems, but others seem to have disappeared suddenly. Hope there is no serious problem... I also have to apologize to the team, because I've had little time to play the last months and have not been doing very good. I'll play again when I have more time to concentrate on the games. Kind regards to all Daniela |

| Posted by lawarner nikto.net 7/22/2004 04:05:11 Play online chess | Hi Everyone I am new to this team Message: But enjoying it very much. Would love to have more communications between our members. Just wanted to say a little something about 'giving up' early. I had two games that I was sure were lost causes. But in both games the person started giving me pieces. Both games I will probably win now having significant piece advantage.. Constant pressure, making the best moves you can find will sometimes cause an opponent to fold. Or sometimes they get impatient and see something in the position that is not there. I would love to play some of my team members. Please challenge me or let me know if you want to play. |

| Posted by zormaster nikto.net 9/01/2004 10:24:19 Play online chess | warning Message: Player chambiz is cheating games by using chess software. I have send my two games to ICC to analize and a positive result came back, pity to 'win'by using miserable chess software. |
| Posted by sabrina26_ita nikto.net 9/01/2004 15:06:29 Play online chess | i just Message: checked the game u lost Natasha, i dont really know if he used a program to play, i dont have a program for analize this, sorry dear for that game, unfortunately we are not all honest... |
| Posted by ajb1955 nikto.net 9/01/2004 19:43:32 Play online chess | question Message: I hope you do not mind me intruding on your team discussion but I am (sorry...I hope you will alow me this one time) and I have a question. I have heard many people complaining about someone using a program to play (by the way, I do not...in fact, my rating attests to that! LOL)...but for the life of me I cannot figure out how anyone can positively say that a person is doing this. So how can you tell or what makes you think that a person is using some softwre or program without actually seeing them do it? Thank you.... Tony |

| Posted by zormaster nikto.net 9/01/2004 23:06:35 Play online chess | question Message: I am an ICC and WCN member and both organisations are able to check out if someone is using somekind of chess software or chess machines. I have no clue what but the past history learns us that they for 99% right in their analizing. bTW: i don't care a loss if any of you think that i am a sore loser, not at all. After a fine match i congratulations always and don't have any regret at all, otherwise i better can stop with playing chess :>) I am a fanatic otb player and fide titled so i think i can speak open about this because many high rated players here would be crushed if they were sitting in front of me. That is all but i have no hard feelings at all, none. Tas |
| Posted by leo_london nikto.net 9/02/2004 04:51:24 Play online chess | Forgive my intrusion Message: as well. Zormaster you have accused (and named) a player of cheating. You state that the ICC confirm your suspicions, one of your games against this opponent only concluded yesterday another is still on-going...thats pretty fast work from an international organisation. As you are so certain can you give us the positions in the game that aroused your suspicions ? your statement " many high rated players here would be crushed if they were sitting before me " really says more about your general attitude to the game than a thousand words from me. I have reported your post, I am surprised it has survived in this forum considering posts that have been deleted in the past. |
| Posted by zormaster nikto.net 9/02/2004 12:58:13 Play online chess | Forgive my intrusion Message: i discuss this matter with my team mates only and from now on by private messages only. reported my post? LOL. My dear just do what u think it is right for u but u better can visit your own chess pages from your own chess team. ciao |
| Posted by leo_london nikto.net 9/02/2004 15:43:22 Play online chess | zormaster Message: Its a pity you did not think to keep your accusations private before. These forums are not private, we have many visitors to our team forum. More importantly, unsubstantiated accusations of cheating are the concern of everyone on GK and I am surprised that you treat the matter so flippantly. I wonder if you would find it quite so humorous if you were the victim of such accusations ? |
| Posted by gothicgirl nikto.net 9/02/2004 16:53:54 Play online chess | to leo_london Message: sure, this matter are the concern of many people on this site, but that doesnt change anything about the fact, that these players are quite poor. they think to be strong, but in fact, they are the assistant of their chess software. Why doesnt treat that subject humourious?! and arent you treating that flippantly as well by reporting Zormasters post as well?! Finally I can tell you, that Zormaster is one of the most reliable players, I have known on this site, a person of high integrety and fairness! I think you should be more careful, saying something about her! |
| Posted by leo_london nikto.net 9/02/2004 17:32:03 Play online chess | gothicgirl Message: I have not said anything detrimental about zormaster, I choose my words very carefully. I was certainly not being flippant, that is why I reported the post. I have no doubt that zormaster is a person of integrity, that makes it all the more disappointing that she would accuse a fellow player on GK of cheating. |
| Posted by leo_london nikto.net 9/02/2004 17:42:02 Play online chess | PS Message: I must admit I wish I had never become involved, I do not know the player named. However I am sure the majority of your team would be grateful if I had pointed out that such an accusation had been made in another forum about one of your team-mates. |
| Posted by gameknot_com nikto.net 9/02/2004 22:07:50 Play online chess | Message: Accusing someone of cheating is indeed against GameKnot forum rules. Please present only facts and facts alone. Also, even though this is an individaul team's message thread, it is still part of GameKnot public forums, so all rules still apply. Thank you for your understanding. |
Chess news: Hikaru Nakamura — Chess Master who would be King -- The U.S. chess champion needs a shave. When he is playing well, Hikaru Nakamura doesn't like to shake up his routine. Maybe it's superstition. So when Hikaru opened strong at the prestigious Corus Chess tournament here, he put away the razor. Wednesday is a rest day at the 13-round event -- a good time to lose the beard, Hikaru decided. "I just try to keep a certain routine, and this (shaving) is one of the things I've avoided doing,'' he said after his game Tuesday. "Tomorrow, I probably will (shave) and reset everything for the second point of the tournament.'' Round four was bittersweet for the 22-year-old New Yorker. Hikaru played the black pieces against the world chess ... The Scotch Opening, part 2: how to cope with a masochist -- Black has made an incredibly aggressive move with his queen. What does White do? We continue our survey of the Scotch chess opening (which arises after 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 d4 exd4 4 Nxd4) with a move that was the height of fashion in the 19th century. RB On my shelves is a book on the 4...Qh4 variation of the Scotch. I wish I'd actually opened it because these early queen sorties never fail to unnerve me. I'm sure this is partly because when we first try our hand at chess we immediately reach for the queen. Then, as we grow more practised, we learn to delay her deployment until we've developed the minor pieces and got the king to safety. So this kind ... Playing poker in a game of chess -- Hikaru Nakamura began the New Year by leading the United States to a silver medal at the chess World Team Championship. On the heels of that success, Nakamura continued his impressive play in Wijk ann Zee, Netherlands, which annually hosts the world’s most prestigious annual chess tournament. Nakamura won two of his first four games and drew the world chess champion Vishy Anand. The tournament concludes on Jan. 31. Nakamura has adopted an extremely bold style. At key attacking points Nakamura looks to sacrifices a piece. The sacrifice opens up lines and facilitates an attack on the king. Objectively, it may not be the best move, but ... | |
