well done Andy
Re: Streetfighting Chess monthly online magazine! - andyburnett - 06-05-2014
Cheers Pat
Despite the under-whelming interest shown so far (on this forum at least) if anyone would like to have their games analysed ('trashed' according to Keith Rose, jokingly I would add) and published please send them to me!
I'm looking for games from players in the brackets 1000-1500/ 1500-1800 and 1800-2100
Thanks in advance,
Andy Burnett

Thanks Paul, Much appreciated
If anyone has any problems viewing the mag please let me know. It looks fine on my monitor (23"), and also seems OK on my daughter's tablet (9") but unsure of other screens?!

Looks good Andy, hope it goes well for you! If you manage to keep up that volume of games per issue it will be seriously impressive.
My only comment would be the pink text is very difficult to read on my laptop, although I am colourblind so it might be just me!

Cheers Adam, will do my best
If there IS pink text, it is entirely to do with the fact that I am also colour-blind!

Haven't had time to digest the games yet, but the layout is good, simple and user friendly really. I like how many games can be squeezed into small spaces, with the moves and comments. There is definetly a gap in the market for something like this (in Scottish Chess at least anyway). Thanks for putting it in the public domain, appreciated.

Oops!
The pink text is the questions in the interview with Fiona.
Like the concept, think there is a market for analysis of actual people's games, studying the likes of Capablanca and Carlsen is all very useful too but the mistakes my opponents (tend to) make are somewhat different from the mistakes Radjabov and Lasker make/made!

looks like a good magazine, hope you keep it up!
oddly I am also colour-blind, I wonder if that is a common thing for chess players lol?
