I was not especially impressed that games were sold first before they were uploaded. <BR/><BR/>But still, Gila did manage to source a handful - especially the Pinoy games. So that was good. <BR/><BR/>And I believe that standings and pairings were provided on the gilachess.com site. I just did not bother posting them on my blog when I could just link to them. <BR/><BR/>In any case, I've now got quite a bit to talk about for my next Bayanihan column! :))The Closet Grandmasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17680425849888374045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14539885.post-1126348670594575542005-09-10T19:37:00.000+09:002005-09-10T19:37:00.000+09:00In the spirit of constructive criticism I would su...In the spirit of constructive criticism I would suggest that next time:<BR/><BR/>Standings should be given as well as results and next-round pairings<BR/><BR/>Games be made available. This practice of suppressing the game scores so that you can sell bulletins is no good.<BR/><BR/>The organizers are supposed to pay some people to make the bulletins. I hope that this does not mean that the bulletin editors in the Zonals were not paid and thus were trying to maximize their sales by suppressing the games?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14539885.post-1126267939087249392005-09-09T21:12:00.000+09:002005-09-09T21:12:00.000+09:00gilachess & Closet GMThanks for the good work.

It's the fastest turn around time for my website to come out with the result once it was out. 10 minutes max!<BR/><BR/>This was different for the Malaysian Open where I had to run down to a cyber cafe to post the results.<BR/><BR/>But I have to thank the Malaysian Chess Federation for providing me a PC with internet connection.<BR/><BR/>Come down to Malaysia, and I'll treat you to some true Malaysian cuisine.. :)GilaChesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14478596350967034213noreply@blogger.com
