|
Dec-11-12 | | waustad: It is a shame he never played the Dragon in the database here. Perhaps that pun would be too easy. |
|
Dec-11-12 | | TheFocus: So, is he half man, half tiger?
Isn't that illegal?
Or immoral? |
|
Dec-12-12 | | Cyphelium: <waustad> The reason you cannot find it is because it's a hidden dragon. |
|
Oct-28-13 | | waustad: Happy birthday to the Tiger!! |

 | | offramp: Half man, half biscuit.
Persson is just an analogue of Peterson. |
|

Jul-25-14 | | parisattack: At the risk of swearing in church as it were - here are Tiger's comments on his study of the game of Go - and a little on the relationship he finds between it and chess - http://tiger.bagofcats.net/go/ |

 | | offramp: Per is a Scandinavian masculine given name. It is derived from the Greek word πετρος (petros) meaning "stone" or "rock". The name is a variant of Peter, a common masculine name of the same origin... |

Aug-15-14 | | parisattack: Whenever (as recently) I study go a few months and come back to chess, my game *seems* improved. I fancy I take a more whole-board approach to analysis, see 'moyo' and 'influence' in different areas and seem better at gauging the underlying pace of the game (relative importance of strategy and tactics). I think many of the positionally descriptive go terms might be applicable to chess. |
