***** A-Storm ***** On the first Friday of each month, at 7pm ET (ICC time) FIDE Master S. Dorobanov (A-Storm) gives a free lecture for intermediate players. After a short announcement A-Storm will open a game board in examine mode, which you need to follow with the command "follow A-Storm". Turning off your seeking ads (set seek 0) is recommended in order to easily follow text, it reduces screen rolling. You can always turn on your seek variable later (set seek 1). Your kibitz variable should be set to 1 (set kib 1) in order to see all commentary, or set to 2 if you want to see only A-Storm's comments and possibly those of other titled players. However, at the end of each lecture A-Storm will be answering various questions on the topic, which suggests kib=1. The topics vary each month, but the level of explanations remains most beneficial to intermediate players (the range of 1300-1900 or so). The lecture lasts approximately 1 hour, depending on the number of questions at the end. For information on each new lecture, type "finger A-Storm". You are not required to purchase any chekels for this lecture. (Text provided by A-Storm). See also: chekels, Services, event2
