I filled out that survey the site asked for the other day.  I wish I'd included this in my suggestions.  The games database is a bit thin.  E.g., this opening shows no matching games. 1.d4 d5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nc3 e6 4.a3 c5 5.Bg5...

Perhaps this line is never played at the GM level.  Okay.. I'll accept that.  Perhaps it makes sense to include lower level chess games in the DB, because I would like to see how this opening plays out (maybe even understand why it does not appear at the GM level).  To me, it seems like a pretty playable opening for both black and white -- seems like it should be fairly common.  In sum, I think the games DB could be enhanced.

Same with me.  I couldn't think of it at that moment but then a day later I wished I had suggested it.  Perhaps we could just use the regular "suggestion box"?
