Results must be correct. If Result is wrong and moves # is correct...you get no points whatsoever Participant 2: 10 pts rewarded for correct Result/moves # Participant 3: 7 pts rewarded for closest under (1st-Under) to 45 moves Participant 4: 6 pts rewarded for the 2nd closest under (2nd-Under) to 45 moves. Participant 5: 3 pts rewarded closest OVER(1st-OVER) to 45 moves. Again, the description of Participant 3, 4, and 5 are based on there being no exact prediction as made by Participant 2. <IF> there is an exact or an under closest, the highest scoring over participant will be 2nd over. The second closest over will be 3rd over. The <ONLY> time there will be a first over is if there is no exact or under winner.

Tal Memorial Moves Prediction

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 370 OF 370 ·  Later Kibitzing> Jun-18-13    lostemperor: Btw. what happened to <Over, 3 points: [] > in <Karjakin-Mamedyarov, 1/2-1/2 in 43 moves>? Why is not that awarded?

Jun-18-13    OhioChessFan: <lostemperor: Btw. what happened to <Over, 3 points: [] > in <Karjakin-Mamedyarov, 1/2-1/2 in 43 moves>? Why is not that awarded?> It wasn't awarded because there was an exact. If there is an exact or an under, then the closest over will be second. Per the instructions on my header: <<IF> there is an exact or an under closest, the highest scoring over participant will be 2nd over. The second closest over will be 3rd over. The <ONLY> time there will be a first over is if there is no exact or under winner.> As for the idea of 5 point groupings, that's interesting, but I kind of like how hard it is to score. Jun-18-13    lostemperor: Okay that figures I think;) Well it is up to <chessmoron>, if he will consider a different score system where no one gets heavily disadvantaged for predicting over instead of under and may be better off to predict lower rathe than higher. Contestants should be encouraged to predict exactly what he or she expects without extreme disadvantages. Jun-18-13    OhioChessFan: In game update Vishy blundered early and Carlsen won an easy game in 29 moves. Naka and Andreikin played a harmless 23 move draw. Gelfand is winning early against Moro. 28 moves in, Kramnik-Karjakin looks like a quick draw. Mamedyarov-Caruana is even but seems to have a lot of play on both sides.

Jun-19-13    OhioChessFan: In game update Caruana-Kramnik is a strange game where Kramnik needs to keep finding only moves to hold a Rook down draw. All the other games are fairly even, though Moro is a little better than Karjakin. Lots of time being used in the first 20 moves so there's always time trouble possibilities. Jun-19-13    lostemperor: I believe I have a correct prediction there since Kramnik drew Caruana in 30 moves!:) Jun-19-13    lostemperor: And so does <OhioChessFan> I noticed!;) Jump to page #    (enter # from 1 to 370) < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 370 OF 370 ·  Later Kibitzing>		Take the Premium Membership Tour
