1) Introduction
----------------

Thanks to Bosko Grove, Bob Wade, Wlodek Proskurowski
Lars Zwisler, Flemming Jensen Einar Karlsson, Piotr Nestorow,
Panagis A. Sklavounos, Vadim Kaminsky  Steve Immitt, Kevin O'Connell
and Sasha Nikulin (who did sterling work on the Novgorod file.
All of whom helped with another gigantic issue. Hopefully I'll
have time to deal with lots of little items that have been left
out over recent weeks.

After a minor panic last night when I couldn't see straight
the small (would you have noticed???) changes have been made
to correct errors.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

2) Novgorod Open Tournament
---------------------------

After a lot of hard work I now have a version of the Novogorod
Open file that appears to be in substance correct. I would
like to thank Kevin O'Connell and Sasha Nikulin (who made
the major breakthrough in interpreting the file.) for their
help in interpreting the file. Also to the Webmaster at infonet.ee.
Games that just consist of 1. d4 d5 are ones which we have inserted
in place of missing games.

Literally on the deadline there is one error in the table that
Sasha found
 Round 7.
 Efremov and Vlasov withdrew, Galkin forfeit and withdrew
I left a couple of players to play on and play each other again!
Unfortunately I don't have time to correct this.

As mentioned last week Bologan qualifies for the main Novgorod Tournament
next year.

Novgorod Open (RUS), 26th May- 3rd June 1995.

4) 1995 PCA/Intel Grand Prix Qualifier.
------------------------------------

My thanks to Vadim Kaminsky for the crosstable and some games from this event.
He thanks Steve Immitt, Tournament Director, who provided him with the
crosstable. He also provided the selection of games.

The table includes players who were supposed to turn up but didn't.
Because Anand has declined to play the New York leg of the Grand Prix
(a very sensable decision with his possible once in a lifetime match
against Kasparov coming up, in fact I'm getting a really good feeling
about Anand's whole attitude this year.) there were 8 qualifiers from
this event. Kasparov, Kramnik and Ivanchuk will play in the main event,
I'm unsure at this stage who else, this starts on Tuesday June 20th finishing
Friday 23rd.

Matulovic, Milan	YUG	2445	g	2.5
Velimirovic, Dragoljub	YUG	2520	g	2
Ristic, Nebojsa 	YUG     2370    m	1.5 (I think)

I don't think the famous Trifunovic is in the rating list
but I have a feeling that this may be him. I can't
find a Komljacovic and wouldn't want to guess. There are
a few Ristic's and  other choices, I'll try and find more details.

There were a couple of gamescores that worried me too.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

My thanks to Lars Zwisler for his speedy reporting last week.
My thanks to Flemming Jensen from Under Uret for the remaining
games (all draws I'm afraid!) from the tournament.

He further reports:

The tournament was won by GM Margeir Petursson (ISL) in front of IM Ralph
Aakesson (SV) and Henrik Danielsen (DK). the two last mentioned made
a GM-norm and Henrik Danielsen (DK) just has to pass 2500 in rating,
then he is a GM.

  If now 6.Ka6 then 6...Qd1+ with a perpetual check.  What should White do
  then to win?  It is worth to spend some time to try to solve it.  If you
  can't, find out in the next TWIC.


12) Tournament Calendar by niermann@math.uni-dortmund.de

The tournament calendar is stil alive. I've been on two conferences and
there were many unexpected problems with the internet connection.

Many thanks to all who have sent us some tournament informations, but
we still need some help.
If you want to support us, please send infos about tournaments in your
country to niermann@math.uni-dortmund.de.

We're especially looking for tournaments in Spain this summer.
