I PMed you about 15 hours ago, and I did not receive anything back.

More than half of the games haven't even been finished yet. I'm still waiting on my guy. Would anyone like an extension? I'm not sure of what to do here.

Lightning places a 5,000gp bounty on Sir, and Robinhood2 adds on 10,000gp! That was real money, back then.

I'd like to live in a van down by the river.

...are you kidding me? Judaism is a pretty small religion. Not even half of one percent in the entire world, I believe.

Never heard of it before. ?!?

Just read the explanation of the Swiss System in the link in the main post.

You're very grown up and mature, I think you should leave us kiddies be.

1. So? 2. Fixed.

Everything should be in the first post. Sorry if it's a bit hard to understand.

It doesn't have to happen right now, just finish it sometime by Sunday.

I'm using a neato chess-pairing program that they use in all the top USCF events. 5 rounds.

You're right about that one, I was referring more to jobs like business where personality can also play a big role. Some jobs like a chirugeon may require 10+ years of work experience in the field and possibly a doctorate. But I was talking about the time immediately after you graduate. Yeah, it would seem that the answer to most college and income-related questions is "it depends".

Uhm...what? Words of ignorance (as well as 'doctorates earn more'). In todays world a doctorate isn't even necessary, it will just take you 3 more years (or even more) to graduate and people with a master's degree will earn more by then. But that one was ridiculous though. There are some occasions where you need a Doctorate, though. I don't want some guy with his Masters performing my laser eye surgery. My point being that some jobs in society require extensive training. Still, things like that piss me off. You shouldn't be trying to help people make life-altering decisions when you have information like that.

Ah, young love.

Every once in a while I'll have a continuation of a recurring dream. I can't think of anything when I try, but when it happens, I wake up and realize "oh, that dream started when I was 6". Then, I promptly forget. My subconscious is so weird.

Winner posts that they won. If that's all, we're done. If it's disputed, then we take care of that.

Uhm...what?

To me, trying to answer these questions right now is like solving a 500-piece puzzle with 7 pieces.

Good job in completely screwing up your life. You will be stuck with blue-collar jobs your whole life, and with the rate of unemployment, especially in blue-collar jobs, your future likely could be screwed. Plus. as an adult, going back to get your HS and college degree is extremely difficult. I feel bad for any family you may have in the future. Viktor, what makes you think that having a blue collar job will screw up his life? Because he's not doing the best job he can. Working at a casino won't screw up his life, but he'll be doing very poorly - and definately not what he's capable of. Go back to school man. My father never went to college, and he still pulls half a million a year. What am I going to do? I'm going to stay in college as long as possible, and get my Doctorate. Obvious, yeah? Sweeping generalizations are bad.

Is this another one of those companies that makes a vague patent, then just kind of hides it until someone makes alot of money with a similar product?

Last day to sign up.

There must be Don't Stop Me Now playing in the background.

I'll be running the tournament, we're just using yahoo to play the games. I don't really know enough about the yahoo system to feel comfortable with letting it match people, if it can even do that.

Er..no. Swiss System. Just regular chess.
