This could be a morning coffee issue, but here it goes.
I'm somewhat new to exploring archived games in general, more so with chess.com's Game Explorer. But I was running through a few QGD variations, and after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.Qa4 Nc6 5.Nf3 Bd7, two master games were offered.
The first move option, 6. cxd5, refers to the game Bodini - Biggi A, and is scored 1-0.
The second move option, 6. Qb3, refers to the game Khmelnitsky Igor N - Stripunksi Alexander, and is scored 1/2 - 1/2.
The second game is archived correctly, ending in a perpetual draw.
However, the first game is archived incorrectly, ending in black checkmating white.
So, I suppose I was wondering how often things like this happen, and how it affects the usefulness of chess.com's Game Explorer--how it affects, for starters, how win, draw, and loss totals are displayed.
Thanks!
I'm sure it is not the only mistake in the whole database.
I don't believe I've ever seen anything on where chess.com gets its database files.
