こんにちは
I'm continuing my search through the match archive I received and I found a few more gems!
Falafel (3.71) - Bob Wactel (3.75) 15pt Las Vegas Open 2011-11-09
Michihito Kageyama (3.46) - Bob Wactel (4.28) 15pt Las Vegas Open 2011-11-09
Falafel (3.79) - Skep (10.23) 15pt Las Vegas Open 2011-11-09
Falafel (5.03) - Konrad Fröschl (7.23) 15pt Las Vegas Open 2011-11-09
Falafel and Burak Gören (2.45) - Hilmi Göchan and Oguz User (6.42) 17pt European Pro Cyprus 2011
Konstantinos Mitrelis (6.41) - Bob Wachtel (2.53) 13pt Porto Carras 21-4-2012
Malcolm Davis (4.37) - Petko Kostadinov (2.40) 11pt Santa Fe M1_01 2012
Some sweet matchups here! This is the first match I have between Falafel (Mike Natanzon) and Robert Wachtel in the database! And the first between Michihito Kageyama and Robert Wachtel! Pretty cool!
What I have to do is to go from the filename 'Falafel-Wactel15pointmatch2011-11-09.xg' (no info added in the xg file) and based on the date search for a matching date from chicagopoint:
ABT - LAS VEGAS BACKGAMMON OPEN
November 9-13, 2011; Las Vegas, Nevada
and check if the players are present in any of the results which places them at that tournament. At least Falafel was found so it is a reasonable guess that this match was from that tournament.
It is obviously better if this information is added when transcribing the match even if you don't have any immediate plans of distributing the match. Perhaps one day you decide to send your entire match archive to me?
And this puts the number of matches in Backgammon Studio to 5555! Coincidence? Oh yes!
