Do you remember the crash?? Perhaps his games were played during that time.. (More than likely) and since the crash wiped out about 2 months worth of memory.. I would suggest that to be the reason it shows the conflict..
Eddie can have played the MOST games of Battleboats and have the following score????
44. eddie spaghetti 166 719

Subject: i got this in a e-mail just thought people would like to know
WORST VIRUS EVER--CNN ANNOUNCED feel free to
PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST !!
A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by
Microsoft as the most destructive ever! This virus was discovered
yesterday afternoon by McAfee and no vaccine has yet been developed.
This virus simply destroys Sector Zero from the hard disk, where vital
information for its functioning are stored.
This virus acts in the following manner: It sends itself automatically
to all contacts on your list with the title "A Card for You".
As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened, the computer freezes so
that the user has to reboot. When the ctrl+alt+del keys or the reset
button are pressed, the virus destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently
destroying the hard disk. Yesterday in just a few hours this virus
caused panic in New York, according to news broadcast by CNN. This alert
was received by an employee of Microsoft itself.
So don't open any mails with subject:
"A Virtual Card for You."
As soon as you get the mail, delete it!! Even if you know the sender!!!
Please pass this mail to all of your friends.
Forward this to everyone in your address book. I'm sure most people, like myself, would rather receive this notice 25 times than not at all
HAVE A GREAT DAY

In case you have not noticed. Everyone has been given a clear slate at ths point in time. Dano was warned about his posts, which were unwarranted, and now he is gone.
He keeps making mention of manipulated posts. I am not sure what he means by that. I occasionally make typo corrections or punctuation changes at the tournament board, if this is manipulation, so be it.
Yes, I posted that I would help everyone playing Dano in Gothic Chess to win. I was letting off steam, but I really meant it when I said it. Logistically, does anyone really believe this was possible? In fact, nobody took me up on my offer, as those who were members of the fellowship recall. They all wanted to try and give him a drubbing by their own hands, win, lose, or draw.
I posted it mostly because I knew it would agitate dano when it leaked, so the spies helped me immensely, and I thank you for it.
It was an impossible task to do (play every move for every opponent against dano) but knowing the way his paranoia is manifest, I knew it would send him over the deep end.
So what had I actually done?
I made a post, then took no action on it. How many times a day do we each do similar things? You see a beautiful woman walking down the street, do you think "I wonder if she likes doing Crossword Puzzles?" If you see an armored car making a cash pickup at a store, do you think "I wonder what kind of gas mileage it gets?"
No, we have fleeting thoughts about getting her in the sack, and tossing bags of money into the back seat and peeling off down the road. (Or maybe peeling off down the road with the girl in the back seat, and sleeping with the bags of money, whatever you prefer!)
The point being my previous fellowship was created for those to let off steam about dano, much as this one is most likely geared at letting steam off about me.
But does anyone really think I crashed the server just so dano, who won his section in the $3000 Gothic tournament, would not be able to continue on? Did he really think I was making all of those moves against him and he kept beating me game after game?
Folks, you have to face the fact that he was at least a little off his rocker. If nothing else, this must be conceeded.
The server crashed. That's all that happened.
A new policy is in place. It is one we can all live with. When I make a post about how the 4 kings in the deck of cards are not really modeled after those in antiquity that have permeated the culture, then someone calls me a prick for doing so, a line has been crossed. It was uncalled for.
Even now, I could of had this person banned, but I elected not to do so.
No more warnings will ever be issued, as the policy is any direct insult, in a private or public forum, will result in an immediate banning.
If it cannot be discussed without name calling, do us all a favor, and save yourself some keystrokes.
If you have read the hidden message I placed in this post, you know which 4 people will be banned next because they will most likely make snide remarks about this post. This is what I am hoping for. This is the bait
It's my favourite one. During my vacation in Scotland [some years ago] I've visited the distillery. Very nice place with very nice smell, I must say ;-)
Well Fencer,lets hope it isn't this teflon flu they have been talking about...personally I'm immune...got a cast iron stomach!!LOL:)
but seriously...lots of vitamin C and fluids..
get well soon! :)
Yes harley....its a down right shame to lose such a player.Its even a bigger shame to lose him because of the unfortunate wording he used,voicing all our concerns regarding ONE individual.
ughaibu & rabbitoid. Danoschek has been banned from the site, he cannot finish his games or tournaments. I have a feeling the 'full' story would be an extremely long one! Its enough to say that Fencer has never banned anyone before, and he wouldn't do it on a whim.
and if he's been barred, what about his unfinished games?
whatever you may think about his conversation style, the guy has an impressive chess record of almost 100 wins, 1 loss and 2 draws.
his 2 games against me are due to timeout in less than 48 hours, and as for me, it would upset me to "win" points this way. can his games be put on hold? or marked as not-counting towards BKR?

The person who keeps posting what I posted on here all over the place, once he logs out, will not be able to log back in.
If the posts are removed from every such board, this will be lifted
