Where does name “OlimpBase” originate from?
It was John Saunders who was behind the idea of creating national chess databases with his excellent BritBase. A lot of people followed him creating parallel databases for their native countries. The most common naming system was -base suffix added to the country code, so GerBase, ARG-Base, BelgaBase etc. Following this rule and, given the fact the site used to deal with the Olympiad history exclusively, I called it OlimpBase, written with capital B and with no space inside. I agree with those who claim that OlympBase would sound better, but who cares now. Those days the name sounds somehow obsolete. It should rather be TeamBase or sort of that. Yet, due to reasons with historical, sentimental and marketing background I decided to leave the name unchanged.
