Ich hatte vor 12. Nxd7 zwei Partien zur Verfügung:
aus 2012 Stephan - de Oliveira 1-0, welches ich zur damaligen Analyse kannte und mir 13. e4 damals noch durchaus als Alternative zum gewählten Text-Zug erschien, und
aus 2014 Emelyanov - Pessoa 1/2-1/2, was ich gestern für Weiss wiederholt nicht nennenswert verbessern konnte, weswegen ich 13. e4 auch verworfen und meinen positionellen Ansatz hier gewählt habe.
(12. Nd3?! verstehe ich ehrlich gesagt nicht "im Spirit" dieser Stellung :-)...)

I only have one additional game before 13. e3, but way behind those two, in quality:
Naum 4.2 4cpu - Gull 2.8b 4CPU (CCRL 40/40, 2014), it also continued with e4 and ended in a draw, probably because white played 16. f4, instead of b4.

Glaub mir, ich hätt' auch lieber die ICCF-GM Stephan-Linie hier durchgepondert und gespannt auf Deine Verbesserung über ICCF-GM de Oliveira gewartet, aber die hat mir der Nachbarsbursche schon auf seinem EiFön gezeigt... danach war ich erstmal leicht(!) deprimiert, aber so ist Fernschach in 2018 nun mal, zumal wir mit Dir ja auch einen durchaus motivierten Gegner haben, der auch bis drei Uhr Nachts noch an einer Position brät... Arbeit hast bis jetzt eh keine, die offensichtlichen Remis sortiere ja ich bereits für uns aus.
Und ja, die gewisse Komplexität scheint der Stellung schon abhanden gekommen - zumal mich hier alle anderen Alternativen schon hängen gelassen haben (Dein d-Bauer ist trotz e3 einfach zu stark)... dennoch kriege ich zumindest leicht bessere Endspiele, und stille Gewässer sind bekanntlich tief, manchmal zu gefährlich für unbegleitete Kreuzfahrtschiffe...

I think there's a poet in you.
, these translation-software have also come a great way.
"translation-software"? I have an old-fashioned dictionary!
Oh, so no hot German translation-girl under your office table?
I wish. But that's on my bucket list. The German girl, I don't care much about the table.
Ozy, i have the much better position already in this game!

Will have a look today evening... as it is very cold here (-1x degree celcius), the additional heating of analysis is highly welcome! In each case i agree with Herbert, as i also think this is the best line - setting White difficult choices ahead.

If you think your ruined pawn-structure is boring and there is nothing to be found, please post your 0.00-line and i will only come back to you when there is something to be played for... when its that boring you sure have full trust in doing so.
Still i think you will simply chicken out doing so, right?

Is banter a corr-chess requirement? This is starting to sound like the Uly game chat.
Ozy, the start position is 0.00, so i really don't understand all that "its boring"-stuff. Corr-chess in '18 is boring! My opponent is pretty strong as he whiped GM Ohlin 8-0, so i'm sure he will underline his 0.00/"boring"-claim with posting here a >=50 half-moves-line to underline it. When chicken out doing so and needing to double-check every move, how can it be boring?!
the start position is 0,17 but this is really easy
the point is to have postions were stockfish needs several days to reach depth 60

i didnt whipe out ohlin, he didnt play so 8-0 without a move

Ok, that explains your current love (vs. Eldridge & vs. Legrand) to the KIA (1. Nf3/2. g3)...
I still think White has an [slight] advantage here, as in my opinion it can improve nearly riskless positionally... but you may show me your 0.00-line pretty quickly...

More than 10 days now...
Well, my play was at least impressive enough to distract my opponent going for 5...d5 any longer - he opted for both 5...Bb4 vs. Tsygankov and vs. Legrand; - but as i left the best move in my book by intention (no need to show all your cards in a "friendly" analysis, and also a good occasion to try something alternative...) and also made a most likely suboptimal choice already once beyond that, we stranded in that current position where i still was sure there is some kind of rearranging-majorPieces-trick on the White's first two ranks with a final exploit of Black's weak pawn-structure, but it is actually very hard to find&prove...
And yet, your moves are coming in a timely fashion. I take it your aren't playing any other games concurrently?
> And yet, your moves are coming in a timely fashion.
Well, its actually not that Herbert's mentioned play/approach, letting Stockfish run down depth 60 and inserting the move here, needs that much time with his hardware
... and it has absolutely nothing to do with fashion at all! Obviously you need engines to double-check your ideas, but playing like that there is not much corr-chess remaining, just computer- one... *yawn*. Yet, 22...Bf8 is pretty deep&good...> I take it your aren't playing any other games concurrently?
I'm currently playing whom i consider the best - myself[!], analyzing abovely mentioned lines and diverse other [openings-]lines. When i go through a few of my old games i just played with a single-core notebook and my analysis-approach ("clicking through the lines", like a OTB-GM would go unassisted in mind), i'm still proud what i could manage to achieve against all the "engine's best move"-inserters - its indeed that i could often add knowledge over that! But 2018 is now a real different beast: playing a solid opening all lines seem to fall to 0.00 sooner or later, so last romance in corr-chess is vs. gamblers or gambiters.
Playing against yourself will get you bored rather quickly. When was the last time you could score a win/loss?
> Playing against yourself will get you bored rather quickly.
Oh, analyzing owns ideas/lines or following interesting corr[-GM]-play is still a lot of fun to me. On the other side i really admire you for all your hard work on your DB, just to get its fruits maybe?! every two years... but hell, i still regret missing that Infinitychess-tourney last year.
> When was the last time you could score a win/loss?
As i generally take more resources for the white/light/good[!] side, still reasonably...
Don't sweat it, the last interesting one was in 2014.
That's kind of cheating.
>i generally take more resources for the white

> Don't sweat it, the last interesting one was in 2014.
You deserved to win 2014, no doubt. For the upcoming next 2023-edition, i hope to bring the Ozywhipdias-sideline in the Spanishspidernetstucks-variation to the board...
> That's kind of cheating.
No, i just create complications for my Whiteself which i can't solve as Black!
Maybe as an individual, but in Freestyle teams are allowed, and team Intagrand had more resources, in every way: more HW, more D in the DB, more operators, and among everything else, more contempt for weaker players. I almost always played just what I thought best, and solid defence nullified those attempts rather often. In fact, the only time I recall actively pursuing bad moves, was in the game against Bojan Fajs, but that was towards the end of the tournament, and I was already sick of draws. I wonder what today engines have to say:

Well, less resources makes your achivement (best results vs. top10) even better. Nice game there, making jobboy a joyboy.
The good thing about the top 10-15 players, is that they occasionally take some risks, like Bojan here, Etaoin, Victorious, Newton296, or Eros more recently (twice). That's when you can play, if you follow solid proven lines all the way out of book, there's nothing.
Do you have the game in DB that Herbert has lost vs. Eros and can put it in here like yours above? Thanks.
