Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      Re: World Chess Championship

      Aronian lost to Anand in round2, but i still have hope for Aronian .Anand's c5 move was the interesting move in the oppening and it gave him a positional advantage.Aronian's white colored bishop was dead,we can say he played without a bishop to Anand.
      This game will encourage the chess players to play queen's gambit accepted imo.

        I really didn't understand that 19. Kh1 move by Aronian. My simplistic mind said play Bd6. I checked that in the computer, and the computer didn't think it was a bad idea. I looked like Aronian surrendered the initiative with that move. The computer was giving white a healthy advantage before the king move.

          I think Levon had too much fun in Jermuk. He should have done as much preparation as Vishy clearly did before their game.

          Anyway, that's the past. Best of luck in today's and upcoming games, Levon jan.

              I play at the Chess assistant club. All the games from the championship are actually recorded there. The neat thing is that there is also a chess engine that you can turn on while looking at the game. You can also try your own moves, to see what happens, and see how the computer responds.

                Can the following explain his underperformance?

                The world champion, Vladimir Kramnik, made a draw with armenian grand master Levon Aronian, in just 21 moves.
                Closing his sixth round, Kramnik has got 3.5, while the Armenian, who is recovering from a sudden illness, has got 2.5.

                What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

                    He had a serious bacterial infection and had to have antibiotics. I'm sure that was the main factor. He apparently had at least two games where he had a strong winning position and let it slip.

                    But it seems like he's getting better. He had a very pretty victory today, putting him 1.5 points behind the leader. At the very least he'll hopefully have a strong finish.
