I invented GRAND CHESS But later found the Name is already taken by someone else Learn about Grand Chess http://www.getclub.com/Show/view.php?best=Discussion&itemid=18 It increases the Size of Board to 16x16. With Each piece doubled as well as board size doubled.

Now, Joel Channing has posted to the USCF Issues Forum a statement that he resigns effective immediately if the vote to cancel the "Internet Insurance" passes. The problem with this is that at every meeting while I was on the board, Channing said that he was considering resigning. This is clearly part of his bullying tactics, saying "If you don't do things my way, I am taking my ball and...

Yes the EB approved it but the stakes are now higher - the loss of an important Board member, who has opportunities in the oven and the fact that at least one Board member feels that the very existence of the USCF is at risk because of the potential magnitude of legal developments. Personally I agree with that assessment. Right or wrong, Susan's potential marketability is enormous and its...

Phil Innes has announced that Channing has resigned. However, this is apparently not true. As usual, Innes has it all wrong. Here is what Innes wrote: "And Goodbye Joel Channing. Breaking news this weekend is that a USCF board member resigned April 4th, over apparent disputes with board president Bill Goichberg. No official communiqué has yet been

Ron is correct. It was at Channing's insistence that the USCF Purchase "Internet Insurance". In 2006, I made a motion that the Internet insurance be canceled. My motion lost. It is true that a majority voted for it, but that was because Channing was extremely insistent on it. It was also Channing's idea to hold the "Retreat" to Florida. At the time it was first announced, I assumed that...

Today, Susan launched into her usual rant of late. What I find interesting is that today Susan complained that Jerry Hanken had leaked confidential information to me and I in turned had used that confidential information in my opposition to her attorney's motion to dismiss. However, I am unaware of any confidential information, either in what Jerry Hanken leaked to me or in what I used in my...

It is posted on Susan Polgar's Official Blog too, so it does not seem that it would be a hoax. http://susanpolgar.blogspot.com/2008/04/im-moving-back-to-hungary.html However, I still find it to be highly likely that this is an April Fools Day joke. We will find out tomorrow for sure.

Those that recall earlier messages I posted regarding "Transwarp," a version of Rybka that is running over at ICC may remember the talk of an approach to drawing by locking up the position. Nakamura was a leading exponent of this approach. It appears that the technique has been refined to the point that a number of GMs are victimizing poor Rybka. Transwarp's current rating is 3398. This...
