  1. Chess Tempo has moved to a new server, and is now serving up #chess problems much more quickly during peak busy periods.
  2. @stevewollkind Thanks for the flattering blog post Steve :-)
  3. @chessbuzz Glad you're enjoying the new tactics graphs :-)
  4. @chessbuzz USCF/CT depends on solving time, some GMs are < 2300 CT standard rating, but solve very quickly, slow USCF 1800 could be +2000 CT
  5. http://chesstempo.com now lets you solve #chess tactics in 7 new languages, Dutch, French, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish
  6. If you're German or Swedish you can now solve tactics problems in your native language at http://chesstempo.com/chess-tactics.html
  7. @ronwdavis Glad you're enjoying the site Ron!
  8. @chessqueen Unfortunately the dragging doesn't work on the iphone (right now) @bobmutch Nice site, but..on my iPhone, dragging doesn't work.
  9. When extracting tactics from Tal's games I've noticed how often he made unsound sacrifices. However, his opponents rarely refuted them.
  10. new #haskell tactic generator is 20% smaller than C version, but also with much more functionality, including a distributed UCI interface.
  11. #chess tactical motifs A-Z. http://bit.ly/Sx4nA
  12. @vishalsodani Yes, you can see some examples of the tactical positions output by the old (written in C) generator at http://bit.ly/AOF5g
  13. @vishalsodani The generator looks through real games to find tactical positions that are then presented to users as rated problems.
  14. @tgardner Just noticed you bookmarked http://chesstempo.com, hope you enjoy the site!
  15. @CowboyNoel Congratulations on your latest ChessTempo standard rating, a personal record I think?
