A little bird tells me that you can view the USA vs ROW tournament
here:

http://students.washington.edu/magates/

Post a reply if any of the links are messed up, or if any of the details
are wrong.
The little bird says it will try to keep the site updated, but doesn't
promise πŸ™‚
Hope it works! The little bird doesn't really know how to make a
webpage.

Ron, for not knowing how to do a web page, your little bird did ok.

As I'm sure you must know by now, there are some minor errors, such
as a few double display over-type listings and the first game is listed
incorrectly as a win for Donadoni -- Knightmare_NJ won that game for
the US. Those were the main errors I noticed in the short time I was
there (20 min). There may be more.

The links seem to work just fine, and thanks for making such a page
possible - it really is convenient for checking out the games! It would
have been really nice to have such a page here at RHP.

Good job Ron! You are a man of vision... πŸ™‚

The little bird tells me he thanks you for checking the links, and
hopes they are now correct. The little bird also says the original format
was more than his tiny birdbrain could handle, so now it is a simple
table format. Not as pretty but maybe it works better....

Score is still 1-0 in game 1, but Knightmare_NJ played White and
Donadoni played Black, which means your second game should be
reversed as well.

Thanks for the site!

Wow, thanks.Even if you cannot garantee the latest update, the fact
that you brought the links to all the games together makes the work a
lot easier for us!

very nice improved version, Ron.
One remark: in the ROW team, please don't forget to
mention "misslead" (lyn) as assistant captain.

I love it! And the bonus game at the bottom was a perfect
addition...didn't I tell one of those guys that when there are only
kings left it is a draw?

Man...I guess if you are bored there is always something to do to
keep yourself entertained....but I think there are better things than
that.

Side note...Bobby Fischer in his 2nd International tourney, Zurich
1959, did the same thing

In his Game with the oldest competitor, the Hungarian Grandmaster
Gideon Barcza, Fischer had no advantage but not wishing to let his
opponent go in peace, played on to the 103rd move. The game was
adjourned 3 times and used up 2 score sheets, but even when there
were only kings left on the board, Fischer made two more moves!
Stunned by such a fanatical onslaught, Barcza could barely get up
from his chair, but Bobby nonchalantly suggested:

"Let's have a look at the game from the beginning, I'm sure I could
have played better at some point"

Barcza then began pleading:

"Look I have a wife and children. Who's going to support them in the
case of my untimely death!?"

GREAT SITE!!! Makes it a snap to check in on games of interest.
Also, I don't feel as bad knowing that my games are not much farther
back than many othersπŸ™‚...Way to go
