You'll have to excuse him, he gets excited about reading his name in print.

It's about the only recognition he gets any more.

Three words is a term, now?

No, I'm not familiar with that "term".

Do try to follow along.

Sadly FanFan has passed away.

I’m sorry to say that it was a quite bizarre and horrible death involving a skittle, a dwarf and a large tube of lube.

I try to explain in simple terms:

* To operate the timing in chess it is good to refer to a common timeframe.
* The "RHP" time is the British Time zone (due to obvious reasons, maybe or maybe not involving Greenwich being defined as zero meridian)
* All posts here, all games and everything that has a time stamp has the time stamp of that timezone regardless of the timezone the user is in.

Sounds very logical so we all must abide by the "British Time"!

Thank you for making it simple......LOL..... 😉

Perhaps someone else knows about this player. You made a polite question.
