World Blitz Championship 2008 Won By Leinier Dominguez



GM Leinier Perez Dominguez won the 2008 World Blitz Championship, held in Almaty, Kazakhstan. GM Dominguez has played TransWarp, so kudos to him, as I was hoping one of the GM's who had played TW would win, yeah, I was playing favorites! :) I was hoping to put the games on my website, but it seems many are incomplete, blitz can be furious, pieces flying back and forth on the board and at certain times the board recording the games can mess up, I don't believe players are required to keep score as in USCF blitz tournaments, at least last time I played one. I wasn't feeling well late last night-early this morning, so I missed the games live. I was blissfully sawing logs (snoring). Since I was sitting here a long time for me, watching the last round of Casino 2008 in Barcelona on ICC as well as the previous marathon of games by AndrinoGiardino (unknown player on ICC, who tied GM Alexander Grischuk for the highest human rating achieved on ICC at 3737), that I just have no energy today, I'm also working on getting a hospital bed, I think it will help a lot, getting in and out of bed and better sleeps. So wish me luck on my Monday's Rheumatologist appt for the prescription for one, as he gave me one before, but I wasn't sure how to go about the process, it expired. I also wasn't in as much pain as I am in now. So congrats to GM Dominguez on his fine win! I hope the scores and crosstable stays in place, but I don't have high hopes on it not being crooked.

Final Standings: Sorry, just couldn't clear up the image after transferring from a spreadsheet, I wanted them to line up, but just couldn't get them to do so (In my somewhat limited html knowledge) with the blogger, so converted to bitmap and I think blogger, where they store the pictures, took a bit out of the quality, it was much better at this size on my comp.

Final Standings Magistral Casino 2008 (Name, title, country, rating, crosstable, final score, performance rating).



lol, I tried. Had some bullet games on TransWarp, but no blitz games yet, last one by BOOO (Anonymous, untitled (this can be kept off at request)). Bullet games by QuangRuan, and with Saint89, a new player! IM Sergei Yudin FIDE 2556 :) All new players are welcome and appreciated.

RE: FTC Blogger Compensation Endorsement Rule Dec 01, 2009


While TransWarp Chess does get compensation for banner ads from Google Adsense, Google Affiliate Program, Commission Junction Affiliate Program and Allposters.com. TransWarp Chess does try not to personally Endorse any specific product, while I the blogger may like the idea of certain products and services, it is up to you, the reader to decide if a product deserves to be looked at via the ads. I comment on chess and computer chess, this blog is NOT about the products that are featured in the ads. At any rate, to date TransWarp Chess' blog and the small sister blog Paranormal Questions, has in it's account $1.59 from Google Adsense, no distribution of funds until $50.00, $0.00 from Google Affiliate Program and $0.00 from CJ Affiliate Program, $5.74 in holding at Allposters.com until $25.00 is reached in commissions. All this well over a year of blogging, I guess some abuse the blogging system to the point that this rule was made, I hope this satisfies the FTC regulation, as to what I heard on the site, it sounded like if the blog itself was dedicated to a specific product/s. But best to be safe.

Not much to say, a disabled dude who blogs when he can for fun and some spare change, really that's what it's been so far, spare change! But that's life, doing this helps it go by a little less painful by keeping my mind occupied. A tumbleweed would do that at this point :P Have fun and Take Each Day as a Gift!
