thanks to all, as always...

here we go with question 81, which needs a small description:
at the pula 2000 congress, reto aschwanden gave a lecture called "new cyclic ideas in fairy chess".
the extended version of it then appeared in feenschach.
i have got the text of the article from reto, however he was unable to tell me when it was published.
the article is quite large (about 20 pages), so it might have been divided into more parts, but i am not sure.
(just to fix it, the chapters were called like this: 1. einleitung, 2. erweiterungen und kombinationen, 3. zyklen mit fortgeseten verteidigungen, 4. eine familie von zyklischen themen in dreizueger, 5. key-reappearance themes.)
could somebody check the issue(s) and date(s) of publication?

By the way,Jacques, that was a nice judgment to read. I learned a lot from your comments.

jacques, thanks for reminding, but of course i did not miss that problem (i was a participant, though unsuccessful).
i only need to correct you in one point: the deadline was not 2009. it was december 31, 2008.

This article appeared in the June 2001 feenschach, in its entirety, pages 126-143.

What are "anti-cyclone themes"? Sounds interesting :)

Peter,

Reto gave a Cyclone-related lecture in Wageningen 2001. The 2002 lecture in Portoroz was, IIRC, together with Reto.

i have used the term "anti-cyclone" for double reciprocal changes (for cyclone non-thematic) in the book "cyclone", see p13.

i do not understand your comment about 2002 joint lecture.
i have found a short record of the 2002 lectures in the problemist, but nothing such was mentioned.
clarify, please.

P. Gvozdjak: Cyclone: Anything New? (Portorose 2002)

As far as I can remember, this was a lecture done by both you and Reto. But perhaps my memory is wrong...

joost: one of us is wrong... well, i am sure it was my lecture only.
however, to make a joint lecture, something like "talking about the theme" sounds very interesting.
i will be thinking of such possibility (if not at the wccc, then at least at the marianka festival).
thanks for the idea!

@Peter,

I do not believe there exists such a creature as the (so called) "Cyclone-hater."
I doubt any serious problemist doesn't appreciate the rich patterns which spring naturally from Lacny's inspired idea (as this unfortunate "hater" label tends to suggest).

I am aware there are varying aesthetic tolerances, which give rise, quite traditionally, to alternative philosophical "schools" -- each struggling to advance their own standards of beauty (typically, to provide a governing mechanism which balances aesthetic virtues against thematic achievements).

But, all evidence suggests that Cyclone2 will provide a grand compilation, pleasing to all parties.
It would appear to be one of the best researched compilations, with deserving recognition paid to pioneering composers, and the most up to date information -- everything the reader requires to (freely) make their own judgments.

Personally, I do find it difficult to appreciate some cyclone problems (e.g., those which require a BS in Fairy Zoology).
But, this is a marginal issue -- after all, there is little disagreement on what problemists consider "ideal."
Lately, even Cyclone judges (devotees themselves!) seem to be pushing (unless it is only my perception) in aesthetic directions.

So, I am not sure whether your term refers to folks like me...
I know that it doesn't apply to folks like me... but then again, it doesn't really apply to anybody... or does it?
