 Believe me - I have tried - and worked with DB:s for several years - when the
moves and names differ too much, duplicates cannot be found. Except when you
work manually. If you go for "Ignore names" + "Ignore tournaments" + "Similar
moves" - then you will find many games that are not duplicates or false. So they
have to be checked manually on the clipboard. My advice is to start off with a
good DB - f.e. CB:s Big or Mega - and stick to that one. Plus be careful with
new games added. Another advice is to just forget all about those other big game
collections out there. Be they commercial or not.
