  WannaBe: Pun potential, Boor War.
Dec-24-11  King Death: Being a Boor, he'd probably crush poor NN. What a guy.
Mar-25-13  EvanTheTerrible: This man plays some interesting chess. A few quality wins have not been posted yet.
Mar-25-13  waustad: <Evan>If you have pgn files of the games you refer to and there are no copyright issues, try posting themusing the PGN Upload Utility. Maybe they'll take them.

They do a good job here of including the games of the very top players, but this is not the best site for finding games of lesser lights. There isn't much of a difference between what 365chess and cg.com have posted for Boor, which may be because this is an American hosted site. European players below the top rank are less well represented. I have found some tournaments posted on chess365 with lots of errors, which may be some of what the admins are trying to avoid here. For example while trying to document at what age a particular player started playing one favorite opening, I ran into game after game that made no sense in a tournament in Goa in 1992.

Mar-25-13  waustad: Looking at his page on chess-db: http://chess-db.com/public/pinfo.js... and here he plays a lot in Ohio. He's listed under Illinois but mostly plays further east.
Mar-25-13  waustad: USCF has some other players named Boor from Cleveland, one of them named Carl, so maybe coming to Ohio is like the Bellon Cramlings all going to Sweden for the Rilton Cup, a family gathering.
