Stick; It seems more and more matches are being recorded, either by video camera or ppl like myself, Rob Maier, etc...who, when knowing they have nothing better to do for a while, would rather assure themselves to a front row seat of a good match and do some transcription than wander around aimlessly from match to match or try to scuffle up a chou. The next step that many have suggested before and I brought up to the MFIC was to stream the finals online live for others around the world to watch.
Ray: Rob is really FAST entering these matches from notepad into Gnubg. MUCH faster than trying to do the same thing from a video tape I would think. He has recorded several of my matches including a 5 point LC final vs Munitz in DC, and he entered that in less time than it took for his computer to boot up, almost. He sent the file of our 11 point final within hours of our finishing the 11 game match.
It looked so easy when he was entering it on Gnu in DC that I considered learning nacktation or whatever and doing it myself. Rob typically does a match for $60, typically split 40/20 by the winner/loser, which is less than a lot of people want to do it... With practice one could make a decent hourly rate at it, or at least contribute to a database of recorded matches.
