yeah, I don't see any way to download games with the RHP one. With the FICS one, I can say "Give me 5000 games with the ECO code A00, played between September 1, 2003 and December 26 2005 in PGN format".
With the RHP one, I can copy and paste manually 5000 times until I have carpal tunnel syndrome, or go insane, which ever comes first 🙂

I have to confess, it is a slight cause of embarrassment that we have not got this sorted out. I even posted on here last summer that I was working on it finally, but got distracted once again. I will return to it, really. Keep the faith. one day it will work as you probably all wish it would (and should expect)

Originally posted by RussHow many sites do you know where the owners are willing to even confess to something like that? Can't be many. Russ' honesty does him credit.

Originally posted by RussGreat idea. If you do it, consider adding in an option, especially for A00 games, either to specify as a search criterion, the name of the opening, or the first W move.
