| Oct 7, 2019 at 16:05 | comment | added | patbarron | Yes, there are games that are not mine. It's certainly possible there are other players with my name (USCF has one other player with the same name except for middle initial), but there's no one in the current FIDE rating list with my name. However, chess-db has associated these mystery games with my name and my USCF ID number. | |

| Oct 7, 2019 at 4:38 | comment | added | patbarron | None of the tournaments I play in have asked me to submit a copy of my scoresheet (even though I do use scoresheets that make a carbonless copy - sometimes I give it to my opponent). The games that are listed in my name on chess-db aren't games I ever played, they're all outside the US (and I've never played outside the US). chess-db actually does let people upload arbitrary games, and it seems like it would be really useful - if I could get rid of the games I never played... I have e-mailed them to ask for their help. No response so far. I'm still not sure it's actually legitimate. | |
