TWIC issue 1200 - 1200
The 1200th edition of TWIC has been published on 6th November, this seems a surprisingly big number, even to me.
It is five years since I moved to supporting the web site with advertising and donations and I'm still going.
At the time of that change I was concerned I wouldn't even make it to 1000 issues
but it was donations for this landmark and the 20th Anniversary that allowed me to keep going.
It hasn't been easy and raising money to pay for my work and time has been the hardest part.
If you do use TWIC a lot and find it useful please consider giving a donation. If this
is over £30 then you are entitled to a TWIC compilation file in ChessBase
format, although I can convert this to PGN on request.
I have offered my personal game file of all the TWIC issues in ChessBase format to those who donate over £30 for some time (and can convert this file to PGN for those who want it in this format). There are over 2.1 million games at the moment in there and this has gone down pretty well.
Below are various Paypal links for donation. I have also compiled a full, up to date, listing of all TWIC issues with links to all the texts, later game files and the numbers of games and stories in each issue.
