Well, not much to say : but this afternoon I ( like a few others ) tried to follow the Junior game . The job they do is really a joke . And in fact it seems they have learned _nothing_ from the problems in the earlier matches when it is about relaying . It really is amazing that _any_ tournament organizer agrees to have his games published in such a ridiculous way ( I suspect the money they have to pay for doing online presentation will soon go up ) . At last I decided to wait until at last the game is posted in PGN and forget about such "live" shows. It shouldn't be such an unsolvable job it seems when you see the tremendous job people on FICS , ICC , lost boys ( ?!) ... etc. do It is quite amusing to have a GM comment live and the only kind of comments he is limitted to is : " I don't think this move was made ; must be another typo " To the GUI : I have no problem with Java GUIs ; for example the yahoo one is just fine but a GUI which forces you to close it and load it again to see actual moves is simply a joke . Until I see a bunch of posts here talking about enjoyable experiences at Kasparov's I for sure won't waste another afternoon ! pete
