Stop paying USCF Dues by
Joseph Chambers
It is clearly evident that the only way to evict all of the rats from the
USCF is to stop supporting these miscreants with money. Don't renew your
membership in the USCF. Don't pay dues. Stop buying anything they sell. Once
the money is gone, the rats will jump off the sinking ship.
Hopefully someday there will be people involved in the USCF who do not act
like mobsters, and who can be honest to...

Amature chess question about ratings by
Rekottop
I am a US Sailor and a bunch of people on my ship would like to have a
tourney. We want to keep track of our chess rating between us all but no
one knows how to calculate it. Could anyone direct me to a place that talks
about how to calculate a rating for people and possibly how to put on a
small tourney between about 20 to 50 people?
Thanks so much every one.

Bobby Fischer April Fools Jokes by
Sam Sloan
Somebody posted a really good Bobby Fischer April Fools Joke at
http://www.thetriangle.org/news/904817.html
I have been trying to think of my own joke, but as I am not much of a
jokester I cannot come up with one.
I suppose that a good joke would be one which sounds like a real news
item at first until it is revealed as a joke.

New Anti-Draw Rule in Grandmaster Tournament by
John Rowland
"Larry Tapper" wrote in message
...
It's an interesting experiment and we'll see what happens.
If this experiment were a success, the ban on draws would become the norm
across all tournaments. However, the top players would rather have the
freedom to call early draws whenever they feel like it. Therefore it is...

What do they call this chess set? by
Melissa
I have a chess set from the 70's that I really like but it's getting old
and the board is coming apart. I liked the pieces though. It's a plastic
weighted set with brown and white woodgrain pattern cardboard board. The
pieces are full size plastic and instead of just being like the staunton
sets, these have actual characters like the queen and king standing there.
The knights are actually...
