	Endgame (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The line between middlegame and endgame is often not clear, and may occur gradually or with the quick exchange of a few pairs of pieces.
		Many people have composed endgame studies, endgame positions which are solved by finding a win for white when there is no obvious way of winning, or a draw when it seems white must lose.
		In Bishop and pawn endgames, the mobility of the bishop is a crucial factor.

		With the recent growth of computer chess, an interesting development has been the creation of endgame databases which are tables of stored positions calculated by retrograde analysis (such database is called tablebase).

	Chess - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		During the endgame, pawns and kings become relatively more powerful pieces as both sides often try to promote their pawns.
		If the game is relatively even, tablebases and endgame study are essential.
		Nor has the study of chess proven particularly useful in the broader AI field; the methods used to play high-level chess are very different to the ones used for machine learning, machine vision, and the like.

	Talk:Relativity - Memory Alpha
		He gives the time he was stranded on 20th century Earth for 30 years (Future's End, Part I) and another, a "temporal inversion in the Dekara Sector." I would guess that that would refer to Janeway's destruction of the Krenim ship in Year of Hell, Part II, or maybe the events of Time and Again.
		He never names to the third, but I would guess that it is Admiral Janeway's interference in Endgame.
		I'd figure that the third one would have to be Endgame- Janeway comes from the future, and doing so changes a fair amount of history (Voyager gets home earlier, the Borg are dealt a crippling blow, etc).

		The endgame was a shock, too; it seemed to come out of nowhere, a capricious final danger for Our Heroes to overcome.
		Fortunately, it -worked- for me; my heart was going a mile a minute, and I got stuck just long enough to start to think about asking other folks for hints, when inspiration struck and I could drive through to the finale.
		Disambiguation is occasionally a problem, juggling room keys and doors and key slots and so on.

	Tempo (chess) - (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The player with the initiative has greater choice of moves and can to some extent control the direction the game takes, though this advantage is only relative, and may not be worth very much (having a slight initiative when a rook down, for example, may be worthless).
		In some endgame situations, a player must actually lose a tempo to make progress.
		When the two kings stand in opposition, for example, the player to move is often at a disadvantage (zugzwang) and so must triangulate in order to return to the same position but with the opponent to move.

	Temple of the Orc Mage review
		A tapestry depicting the Orc Mage is well-described, though I was expecting it to be relevant somehow, and early sections of the game do have a well-realized sense of decay--though the game doesn't sustain it.
		There's a large disambiguation problem early on that requires considerable ingenuity to circumvent, and players not familiar with how pronouns work in IF might never get it at all.
		More generally, the action for getting out of a certain room is a bit illogical, and the TADS hunger daemon pervades the game (and hence there are lots of slabs of meat scattered around), irritatingly.

	Unholy Grail review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		There was a disambiguation problem with the liquids and the slides--I don't recall the exact words right now--but TADS is just as vulnerable to those.
		You play a scientist who has been investigating disproportionate deaths of marine life, and your time is nearly up with no solution at hand.
		The puzzles are a large part of it; those in the endgame are particularly good, I think, and the microscope problem was rewarding to figure out.

		And the endgame is quite rewarding, though made more difficult by the requirement of random scenery searching; I enjoyed the puzzles in the endgame more than any in the game.
		Perhaps the most welcome thing about the endgame was that the goal was clear and the territory to explore limited; there was no question of wandering around looking for the right object only to find that the solution actually turned on a bad pun.
		Moreover, the endgame is the only area where the room descriptions come alive -- and they do for a very obvious reason then, of course, but it does make things more vivid.

		As in some other games such as Merrill’s, play starts with a placement phase where 20 pieces are dropped on the board, followed by a sliding phase; during both phases pieces may be captured.
		The endgame sliding phase is analyzed exhaustively using retrograde analysis.
		Prior to text categorization, a feature generator analyzes the documents and maps them onto appropriate ontology concepts, which in turn induce a set of generated features that augment the standard bag of words.

		The Borg hub then collapsed and ''Voyager'' was successfully returned to Earth (''VOY'': "Endgame (Voyager episode) Endgame").
		In ''Star Trek: First Contact'', the Borg Queen was apparently present during Picard's assimilation in 2366-7 (though this was lost on Picard initially) and was destroyed on that cube, an apparent retcon.
		The Queen was also seemingly destroyed in at least two other instances – during ''Star Trek: First Contact'' and the Endgame (Voyager episode) finale of ''Star Trek: Voyager''.

	Checkmate (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Checkmate (frequently shortened to mate) is a situation in chess (and in other boardgames of the Chaturanga family) in which one player's king is under attack and there is no way to meet that threat; it is a check from which there is no escape.
		Here are the two basic checkmate positions with two bishops (on opposite colors), which can occur in any corner.

		The oboe is a double reed musical instrument of the woodwind family.
		REM, a rock band from Athens, GA features the oboe in several tracks of their album Out of Time, most notably as the lead melodic instrument on the wordless song "Endgame."
		Although the oboe never featured prominently in jazz music, some early bands, most notably that of Paul Whiteman, included it for coloristic purposes.

	Samuel Beckett
		He translated all of his works into the English language himself, with the exception of Molloy, which translation was collaborative (see above).
		The success of Waiting for Godot opened up for Beckett a career in theatre, and he went on to write numerous successful plays, including Endgame (1957) the aforementioned Krapp's Last Tape (written in English), Embers (1959) and Happy Days (also written in English) (1960).
		In general, the plays of this period reflect the same themes as the novels: despair and the will to survive in the face of an uncomprehending world.

	SPAG Game Reviews V
		The prayer system is particularly elegant, almost serving as get-out-jail-free cards - I think in every case, the player can find a solution which doesn't involve prayer, but if you're having trouble coming up with the answer, a saint's intercession will do the job, without forcing recourse to the hints file.
		Not only is the narrative twist nicely done - it both comes out of nowhere and had me slapping my forehead for not noticing it sooner - there's also a mechanical twist, as this whole time the game has been keeping track of the sins you've committed.
		My notes don't record any disambiguation issues or typos; they're basically just reminders not to forget how neat particular elements were.

		At which point you get asked to disambiguate between anywhere from three to a dozen objects (in this case, 'lumps generally', 'breast symptoms', and 'neck lumps').
		And this is the only real game-design flaw as such — this much disambiguation is crazy and the parsing should have been smartened up to avoid it.
		There is a walkthrough, like I mentioned, but it takes you to the endgame and then you're supposed to type a command to get the rest of the walkthrough, but that command isn't implemented.

		Better yet, jigger ChooseObjects() so that it asks for disambiguation.) I found two endings, and I'm really curious what the rest are.
		On the one hand, this is really good -- good writing, good use of background, good story well-knitted into IF conventions.
		In the endgame, you have an absurdly strict time limit, and the critical objects aren't in scope until you examine their container.
