Re: [piecepack] traditional games



Just to make things clear; I was not trying to blame Karol for anything! It was just my own judgement that I was questioning. I can see now that I may have worded my posting a bit carelessly. *I agreed to the way the games were to be posted* when Karol informed me, just before posting them on piecepepack.org, but now that I've seen them there, it just feels weird to see my name listed as author for games I didn't create (even though, when the games are called up, it clearly lists me only as the person who *adapted* the game for piecepack. 

   Thanks to everyone who responded to my request for comments. I've e-mailed Karol privately to see what the options are for changing the way the games are listed.

  Mike - please contact me privately if you need me to make changes, I am
  always willing to make them - you know that.
