Re: MillionBase 2017
Hello Ed,
so many years you do so many things for us.
Time to say thanks again ... on the other site ... I say it now 100x in the last 30 years.
But 101 times to say thanks is in your case more as fully OK.
Best
Frank

Portable Game Notation. It's a text format that allows you to store chess games, most chess GUIs will read the format, allow you to browse and load games, and get statistings from the moves played.Leo wrote:What does PGN mean?
It depend on your needs. If you don't have a need for a 2.9 million games database, you wouldn't do anything with it.Leo wrote: What does a person do with this database?

ICCF also has a lot of correspondence games available, although you have to sign up as a member to access the archive (http://www.iccf.com).

Re: MillionBase 2017
Hi Ed, Thank you for this! I have a question though. By what method or standard is the quality judged? If I could have my wish it would only be 1 million games or even much less if the quality of every single game was of the highest quality. There can be bad mistakes by one side as long as the other side took advantage of the mistakes, etc.Rebel wrote:MillionBase 2017 - 2.9 million quality chess games in PGN format.
