Grand07.pgn update

[Norm Pollock]

I released an update to the pgn collection Grand07.pgn.

The download link is available on Jim Ablett's site:

http://homepages.tesco.net/henry.ablett/jims.html

It is a 34M download and broadband is recommended.

The update contains 192K human-human long time-control games, an increase of 23K from the previous version.

This collection contains games from 1999 through 2006. It is heavily filtered. No short time-control, no Internet, no Computer, no Blindfold, no Simultaneous, no duplicates, etc. Errors have been corrected, player names consolidated, and each player name occurs at least 5 times.

The collection can be used by itself to create a neutral opening book, or it can be iimported to an existing tournament book.

Anyone who likes this collection should also check out the collection GrandPQ.pgn which contains games from 1981 to 1998.

In the future, I will not add games from 2007+ into this collection. Games from 2007+ will go into a new collection.
