Greetings chess friends, My odyssey of discovery in today's chess world continues. After checking out ICC, I am planning to next subscribe to playchess.com. I have a few questions about playing at that site. 1) If I choose the Shredder 11 package, will I be able to create custom opening books for the engine? Is there a link to a web document that shows a beginner how to do it? (I have...

Here is my email to Bill Hall which was also sent to all of the other members of the board. The answer to your question is yes, as a board member I have a right to know how many people are on the USCF payroll. How can I fulfill my duties as a member of the board without the answer to this fundamental question? My email was sent on May 13, 2007, sufficiently in advance for the board meeting to be...

In this game Normal level sacrificed its Rook for a Bishop was it a correct Move? 19.... Rd8xd5{116} I think if it took d5 with Pawn it there could be a Mate by White. Then Help Bot Sacrificed its Rook for a pawn Was that a Correct Move by Help Bot? 26. Rc5-c6{254}

Greetings Chess Friends, Does rating correlate to game length??? Sanny was suggesting something like that... I doubt it, but here is the score of a recent 3 minute blitz game for him to chew on...

Just a brief note... I have converted my ICC account into a public computer account. I am now running the latest released version of Rybka with Chess Assistant 9.1 as the interface. The account's rating has sky rocketed as a result. It is at 2823 in blitz at this point. That is without any sort of optimizing -- just fresh out of the box. I am just running on a laptop, so I do not expect...

Now since I find many players are unable to win the Beginner Level I am thinking to introduce a Baby Level which will play in just 2 seconds, And will play even weaker moves than Beginner Level. As I find many people are unable to beat the Beginner Level. What other modification you want. Are you still not satisfied with GetClub Chess? Do you want me to include Correspondence Game where...

I play on ICC and would like to take the PGNs of my game and hand them to a script/program so it can crunch all night and spit out annotations. I really like the annotations that the most recent version of Chessmaster does, but you have to navigate through menus for each game. I don't find Fritz's annotations quite as easy to read (I have version 7), but anyway it's menu-driven. I was thinking...

Just like there are World Championship matches for Best Chess players in world Is there any Competition for Best Chess Programs? What is the Money I will get if GetClub comes in top 3/ top 5. Because Now I have stopped improving the game further as Now even good players are finding it difficult to win. But If I can get a Lot of Prizes by winning against Rybka/ Fritz I may further improve...

The Laptopgate Affair started on December 31, 2006 (New Year's Eve) when the following statement was noticed on Frank Niro's website chesssafari.com which was soon thereafter taken down: http://www.chesssafari.com/SusanPolgar.htm He wrote: "Susan Polgar

For years police have done crimes. Police taped using tape recorder. Only audio. If a lot of people look at my video the truth might be exposed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BV_RaVVGrt8 Kurt Stocklmeir

I've been playing chess for a long time. My father taught me how to play when I was a teen. My friends and I have played off and on through the years. Recently, I've been playing most of my games against an Excalibur machine with magnetic pieces. I've also bought some very good literature to supplement my existing strategies. I started off at the lowest level and with each win I crank it up...

In below game Help Bot Sacrificed its Rook for a Knight. Advantage of this Sacrifice. 1. King became Open as g2 Pawn was at f3. 2. Double pawns at f2 and f3. But is this sacrifice Correct? As after some moves White Exchanged its double Pawn. Yes the king file
