Yes, I have seen that when playing through a different game, from the U14 section. I tried a couple of hours later and there was no problem, so I assumed they'd fixed a problem in the PGN file. Having said that, I'm pretty sure I saw the same weird piece configuration in as in your second image, so ...

Thank you, Roger.

Will the time controls for the 25/26 season be the same as the 24/25 season, or are there plans to change them?

There is a reasonable, but not detailed, explanation of different types of TPR calculation methods here: https://www.hirmulintu.fi/juha/chess/en/performance_calculator.shtml (the colour scheme is less reasonable, imho). If you plug in Steven Jones' results into the site, this site agrees with chess-...

SC Love was a member of Eastbourne Chess Club in the early 1970s, and I believe he was a keen congress player.

Clicking the square d8 is supposed to give the pgn of all the games, but it's only doing the same as clicking c8, namely the current game. I think it used to work at some time in the past. One file per round per tournament is manageable. The d8 functionality still works if one pgn4web (or Embed Che...

Each pgn4web board has its pgn sourced as a text string (rather than from a single games database) so I can't see that there's a neat shortcut to get all the games in one go. You could save the html page source (or just the games' pgns, which are close together in the html) and edit out the extraneo...

Sounds like it. It will be very interesting to hear the behind the scenes account. I note Hikaru is not mentioned.

Hikaru addresses this in his latest YouTube video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LuyaIUn5WMQ

I believe that I have heard that about Tal.

"Inspector Baboon of Scotland Yard's Special Fraud Film Director Squad, Jungle Division", no less.

Here's an image showing the list of options for the DGT2500 2500-bottom-crop.jpg If you right-click it an open in a new tab its more readable (I downsized it to make it more manageable, the original's better quality). The (rather brief) manual and photos for the device can be downloaded from https:/...

Get well soon, David

Thank you, I'll add the results to the relevant rounds match card as they come in. The competition is auto-rated, so the submission numbers aren't exposed via the LMS (where I've looked anyway).

My club is running a club championship using the ECF's LMS. The tournament runs through throughout the season, with matches played around once a month with players fitting the games in as and when - the point being that matches for a round aren't necessarily played on the same night. My question is:...
