Thus, the motion passed illegally and Bill Goichberg's notification to
John Henderson to go ahead with the blitz tournament today as a US
Championship qualifier was a violation of our rules.
Since everybody is notified of this, I am hereby notifying everybody
that I do not consider the trournament taking place online today as a
valid qualifier to the US Championship. I will be filing an ethics
complaint against Bill Goichberg for his obviously unethical actions
and calling for his removal as president. I will object to allowing
the winner of this event to play in the US Championship.

More questions from the Friends of the Friends of the USCF (hereafter
FOTFOTUSCF):
11. Do you agree that, on the basis of Goichberg's actions as cited
upthread, Sloan is correct to call for Goichberg's removal as
president?
12. Do you agree with Sloan that Goichberg's September 2006 public
motion (as referred to by Sloan below) "effectively force[d Sloan] to
reveal" his [alleged] prior relationship with S. Polgar?

a result of which this matter will disseminated and the entire world
will know about it in due course.The fact is that my relationship with
Zsuzsa Polgar (who now calls herself Susan) was not entirely Platonic.
I have been discrete and have not revealed to anyone other than a few
close friends the true nature of our prior relationship, until now.
Now, Bill's public motion effectively forces me to reveal what really
happened those many years ago. This will do no good either to me,
Zsuzsa, Bill or the USCF, but it appears that now I will have no real
choice but to tell the whole story.
