IECG Games Archive page

Welcome to the IECG Archives Page.

Here you can download most of the games played in our club since about 12 years.

The databases are available in two popular formats: standard PGN and ChessBase compressed CBV

The databases represent of course a lot of hard work by the archivist team, which is currently composed of 4 volunteers:

·         Thomas Niessen – Server games.

·         Laurent Tinture – Email world championships, cup, high level class and quads.

·         Leif Edvin Waerstad – Email cup preliminaries.

·         Jean-Luc Duriez (head) – Email regular tournaments, matches and thematics. Integration.

 

The coverage of the IECG archives and the various tournament types are explained here.

The games are offered for download in two parts: Email and Server games. To build the complete IECG games database, simply recombine the two databases together, with any subsequent update if available.

ChessBase format is recommended. To exploit CBV files you must use some commercial chess software published by ChessBase

The PGN format is a standard that is accepted by all chess programs, like the freeware ChessDB program
