      Haven't changed my mind, Ken. I hope larry shuts this down asap. The poll on the other site is clear.

      Ben, you are hardly an expert on etymology and the evolution of language given the paucity of your vocabulary.

        After initial scepticism, I have to say the new board is MUCH better. I can post updates to the BGC weekly blitz ratings by simple editing. Now if only I can figure out how to post in two column format. And while on the topic, wouldn't it be great if there were a ready made selection of blank RR and swiss x-tables ready to be filled in and pasted into the report?

          ready-made sounds a little difficult. I will see, though, if I can come up with something for columns.

            Vlad, you could try to enter the crosstable with Notepad using Monospace Font like 'Lucida Console' (I use it). Then you would paste it here and use CODE and FONT="Lucida Console". Like this

              You don't have to be an expert on anything to realise that definitions develop. You just have to... not be an idiot.

                  How about if we keep BOTH boards? The posters remaining on the original seem like they deserve each other! :D
