Re: Division Four South 2016-17

Could it be that this weekend, which co-insides with school half term in some areas, cause some absentees? I am losing one of my regular juniors for this very reason. On another subject, is it just me that can't view them, or is there a problem with the pgn files for Div 3 & Div 4 south from week 2?...

Problems with viewing games on Chessbase

Has anyone else noticed this? In the last 24 hours on the Chessbase website when trying to play through games a message appears alongside the board (where the moves normally appear) 'You must have JavaScript enabled to replay this game' I have checked to make sure that I hadn't inadvertently changed...

Re: Further Software Update

Hi Carl, Have just connected to Forum for first time since the upgrades this week and I can't see the board diagrams properly. No one else seems to have commented so wondering what I'm missing? Do I need to upgrade anything myself? Any example of the problem you are having? I tried a new one and ev...

Does anyone know if this meeting took place?

Re: 2014 Final stages

Appearances can be deceptive, the strength of the teams were practically the same with an average grade of 179.38 against Somerset and 179.31 against Nottinghamshire.
