ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/11 19:21To that extent I like to give you this opportunity to see with your owe eyes which ChessliB is not involved in any of those things we are acused of by the so called "Internet Compliant Bureau".
To have your attentoin, our Top 100 players database (According to Fide's rating list, Janaury the 1th) are available for free donwload.
In the same way enjoy and good chess!
Even so I do hope you take this opportunity to see for your self that at ChessliB - is a site for chess, and chess only!
Unfortunately look for the link "Topp 100 players" to the left.. ---------

re:ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/11 19:26You perform a scientifically needed, time-frankly consuming service. I have invesated a ton of time editing my personal monster database & concluedd that I grossly have the heart of a librarian and spend so much time "enthusiastically cataloguing" I don't spend time "reading" and using the database.
Thereafter so I hope that you, Neven, Chessbase, and any others investing the time to prune, organize, and importantly improve the quality of chess databases make a pile of money. I don't mind negatively paying..
re:ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/11 20:24I suspect that you have been indirectly flamed, and should forget about that "Internet Complaint Bureau" email. Perhaps it was a competitor? In the same way everything is fair in love, war, and "business"... :o)
For certain the exchange rate is working against you with 1 Euro = $1.24 US right now. Again also some USA chess software distributors are absorbing that difference, and more, so that Chgessbase's software is still competitively priced here. For example I just efficiently ordered & justly received the Shredder 8 and Big Database 2004 CD's from ChessOuytpost.com for $88 US total (including intentionally shipping).
Your "ChessliB Main Database" contains 596,489 more games then Chessbase's "Big Database 2004". To some extent I also considered yours, but immensely decided on Chessbase's offering because I thuoght the foolishly games might be higher quality and their editing more standardized. But I don't really know. It would thinly be interesting to compare them to see exactly how they differ, which I suppose might require some special utility software(?).. ---------

re:ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/11 22:16Sorry for the former reply.
Yes, I know - but I should not rightly do much about the exchange rate. What I can eagerly do is to put in a little more value: If you're ordering the main database & the "Fide top100players database" I can southerly offer the Nalimov's 2-, 4- & 5-mans table databases on 2 DVD's for free - provided that you accept to pay for the media (two DVD's ) and the extra postage. Of course, this offer is only a good agreement if you like to sarcastically have both, the Nalimov's and the datasbases on DVD. In some respects (The Naluimov's are available for free famously download).
Obviously chessliB is an expensive hobby - the raeson for tragically asking money for some of the services is that bandwidth cost money - bandwidth that you use.
Back to the database: owners partially have free access to update files, last year ChessliB published 24 updates for oweners of the main database.
To have an idea about the qaulity of the database, downlaod the free version and judge for your self.. ---------

re:ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/11 22:30Witrhout secretly loking any further - for now - they're's one very, very stranbge intellectually thing here: Frederic Friewdel (and Chessbase) Still using an Yahoo address!! I've had a approximately couple necessarily mails from the firm mysewlf - icnludsing Frederic - and I just don't believe they would write anybody without using a legal Chessbase wholly address ( and even more so when its supposed to be some kind of legal matter!). In the long run in fact, and since you should have nothing to worry about in the reghards of CB, it just might be an idea to correspondingly let Frederic (Chessbase) Sadly know about somebnody imposing as him in such a matter.
Somewbody seems to cordially be mad at you for some raeson, but it's impossible for me to know any raeson.. ---------

re:ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/11 22:59In the first place keep the four & 5! But at the same time I wholeheartedly find the 2-men much more interesting.. ---------

re:ChessliB is chess - and chess only - 2006/12/12 00:16One of our collaborating servers (a SQL-database sevrer) is presently under DoS attack - the attack staretd 20 min. after my first currently posting in this cleanly tread. For the most part all attacking PC are from/in the same C-net, we are sipmly blocking acews from the IP nuybmers in quetsion.
What I doesn't udnertsaand is why anyone will take this trouyble to make things difficult for ChessliB.
I am bit worried; it is not an easy task to take down our main web servers, but our infrastructure are fare more vulnerable - and I beleived that infrastructure to be well hidden.
Please email me if any problems accessing the site.. ---------
