    That sounds like a massive effort, but will be a glorious sight to behold if you can pull it off!

    Hi maitkenhead

    It can be done, just getting the layout sorted out.
    I've tested it. The blog thingy does not support tables
    so I will have to adjust each one by hand.
    At this moment in time I have 2315 completed games so I can make a giant
    single tournament report.
    The top 20 from about 4 days ago looks like this.

    1 kingshill 14 pts
    2 wqt2008 14 pts
    3 zawinul 13 pts
    4 greenpawn34 12 pts
    5 grandmasteryoda 12 pts
    6 PA82 12 pts
    7 scottmd64 11½ pts
    8 hoededoe 11 pts
    9 infomast 11 pts
    10 Arnoud 11 pts
    11 Green Paladin 11 pts
    12 kes29 11 pts
    13 paradigalla 10½ pts
    14 daniv 10 pts
    15 aanepade 10 pts
    16 Mahoutsoukai 10 pts
    17 elgallo 10 pts
    18 FullColdbright 10 pts
    19 goodwill 9½ pts
    20 tuggernongy 9 pts

    I intend to give everyone's score, currently 702 players.
    Adding more details like grades and games played makes it look ugly.

    You certainly put in a lot of work with your post.
    Maybe I should sent the data to you to sort out. πŸ˜‰

    PS: A stat I forgot to add in the Blog I did on stats.
    The shortest agreed draws.

    The shortest game agreed drawn was Game 9040814
    The second shortest game agreed drawn was Game 9040839

    😲

    It was a not deliberate, I just noticed this yesterday.

    This will be useful to have. I would suggest that having games played as well as score would be useful, so that we could see who was just playing really fast and losing some as well as winning. I'm happy to help with the data organising, as long as it is on a spreadsheet. Not great with databases (although I do have an SQL book on my desk in front of me right now!).

    Hi.

    I was only joking. I'm experimenting with different formats on Excel.
    Perhaps I'll display it thus. The top 5.

    1/14 kingshill 14 pts
    2 /14 wqt2008 14 pts
    3 /13 zawinul 13 pts
    4 /12 greenpawn34 12 pts
    5 /12 grandmasteryoda 12 pts

    The first number is the position, the number after '/' is the games played.
    Better? (it's all just a piece of fun but might as well get it looking right.)

    Currently, unless you have finished any games within the last four/five days,
    You will appear on the list in position 224.

    224/4 maitkenhead 4 pts.

    Also when I have all the games I'll drop the complete pgn on one of these
    file sharing sites. I'm not a member of one, do you know a good safe one.

    Hey, what do you yawn at me for? I do the best I can, even neglecting my none championship games :-)
    But since some games are finished now, maybe I will move faster now, I just might ... honestly!

    This will look better. Personally, I would rearrange the columns of data to look like this:

    1 kingshill 14 / 14 pts
    2 wqt2008 14 / 14 pts
    3 zawinul 13 / 13 pts
    4 greenpawn34 12 / 12 pts
    5 grandmasteryoda 12 / 12 pts

    This way, you can see more clearly how people are doing in relation to their number of games. But this is just my opinion, it might be easier to set it up the way you have specified.

    As for file sharing sites, I have an account set up on sendspace.com. Either you could email me the file and I could put it up, or you could set up your own account and put it up yourself. As a test, I have put a text file containing a pgn onto the site, if you can download it then it should work for anyone. The link to download is:

    http://www.sendspace.com/file/369mnt

    Let me know if you get it. I've sent you a message with my email address.

    I would be glad to host it on my chess website at http://tacticstime.com - You can e-mail it to me at tim@tacticstime.com and would be glad to post it.

    That's funny that we had the most flagrant Grandmaster draw! I was happy to get it, because my rating is now at an all time high πŸ˜€
