From Ed Trice: “OK Ed, let's hear your explanation. I'm sure someone
who always tells the truth has a very good explanation.”

My explanation Trice??? You can’t read…you’re an IDIOT.

Jon DSouzaEva is an Englishman with a BCF grading of 173, pretty close
to yours at the direction your rating’s taking, Mr. 1352!!

Look it up yourself.

No you moron, all I did was copy and paste an email Jon DSouzaEva sent
to me without commentary. Your inability to comprehend appears to be
worse than your inability to play chess, Mr. 1352!!

Regarding coming to your website to post, I’ve already seen you
embellish, edit and remove other posts…remember Greg Strong!!! You’d
have me confessing to poisoning Bobby Fischer if I ever came near your
post. I’ll just wait for the depositions, discoveries and your
witness stand performances. I’m a patience man, especially when the
payoff is your total demise!!

You and I both know along with Frank Camaratta, Dan Heisman, Bruce
Towell, Cathy Purdy and various others that you were the ASSHOLE
behind the ‘My 61 Memorable Games’ Scam.

Here you are, you know the whole truth and yet, you are astoundingly
relentless on your bull ****!! You are the lowest of lows, the
slimest life force I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with.

Don’t you have a lawsuit to answer?? And Trice, I won’t settle out of
court. I want to bury you once and for all…and a settlement will
allow you to return one day.

Sorry to email this again to the 112 people on my email distribution

I must inform the chessgames.com guys about this mistake, as one of

And, to add to the confusion, the famous Ed Trice has commented on

John Lewis

I disagree. It is starting to appear that all of the claims Ed Trice
has been making about himself are false or at least questionable. He
almost certainly did not write the world champion checkers program. He
did not raise $14 million for a Fischer Gothic Chess Match. He almost
certainly did perpetuate the "My 61 Memorable Games" Hoax.

He creates fake personalities who support him on the Internet such as
"Scarlet Rose", "Victor Rose" and "ChessHistorian".

I would favor deleting his entire Wikipedia biography and then
rebuilding it from verifiable sources.

http://www.labatechess.com/ed_trice.html

Sam Sloan

Dear Sam,

I will address your points in turn.

1. "He almost certainly did not write the world champion checkers program. "

The NAME of the program was "World Championship Checkers", or "WCC" for short. If you look at link to Circumflex Software from May 22, 1997, you will see this page:

http://web.archive.org/web/199705220...ircumflex.com/

There is a button on that page to order the Macintosh version or the PC version of this program.

http://web.archive.org/web/199705220...x.com/WCC.html

WCC was the 4th generation of "Cornell Checkers", a program written with a 32-bit DOS extender running under 16-bit Windows. It was a COMPLETE RE-WRITE of the older program. I wrote the Macintosh version. The PC version was written by Gil Dodgen.

As I was able to beat the older version, Gil asked for my help in creating a new evaluation function. I did that, and also changed quite a bit to get it to work on the Mac.

NOTE: This is not a claim that I wrote THE program that was the WORLD CHAMPION of checkers. That distinction belonged to Chinook.

You are confusing the NAME of the program with a TITLE, and that is your mistake.

2. "He did not raise $14 million for a Fischer Gothic Chess Match."

That is 100% correct. I raised $15,000,000 over a period of 2 years. This was even stated in "New in Chess" issue 28, or whatever the number was, that was the "Bobby Fischer Special Edition" that came out around March 2008. In it, Fridrik Olafsson confirms that I visited him in Iceland and presented the documentation of the prize fund. Check your sources. It is the same issue that Labate used to claim I never met Fischer.

You can also listen to my interview on the Dan Heisman show he

http://www.GothicChess.com/radio.wma

3. He almost certainly did perpetuate the "My 61 Memorable Games" Hoax.

BULL_s_h_i_t.

4. He creates fake personalities who support him on the Internet such as
"Scarlet Rose", "Victor Rose" and "ChessHistorian".

Again, completely wrong. "Scarlet Rose" is a woman who lives in Wyoming that plays on the BrainKing.com website where I used to play. Her profile is he

http://brainking.com/en/Profile?u=2925

I vaguely recall someone named Victor, possibly from the GCL site. ChessHistorian was the person who did an article on my for the Baltimore Sun Times when I helped Dr. Schaeffer solve the game of checkers.

My name is on the Chinook website he

http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~chinook/thankyou/

ChessHistorian also contacted Schaeffer in Canada.

Boy, I leave the chess group for a few weeks and I come back to find a
snake in the house, namely Ed Trice ( A.K.A. Scarlet Rose, Victor
Rose, Chess Historian, Canadian Scammer, Helgi ).

Rather than argue with this compulsive liar and proven fraud, let's
recap just a few of his "better moments". We can call this the E.T.
Wall of Lies:

-- He lied about raising 14 million dollars for a Fischer Gothic Chess
Match.

-- He claimed to write the world champion checkers program, but shows
no proof of this.

-- He claimed that Donald Trump wanted to buy the patent for "Gothic
Chess" from him, but he wouldn't sell (although he's declared
bankruptcy), even when being offered a 7 figure sum. Yeah, I'm sure
that happened.

-- He tried to scam the entire chess world and completely disrespected
Bobby Fischer with his fake "My 61 Memorable Games" hoax.

-- After getting caught red-handed (the evidence is overwhelming) with
his "My 61 Memorable Games" hoax, he tries to blame it on someone
else. Completely pathetic.

-- He created several aliases (Scarlet Rose, Victor Rose, etc.),
posted lies to chess newsgroups with them, and even after he was
busted, continues to lie and deny that they were him.

-- Claims he was never married to cover some other lie that he told,
but then turned around on another site and is quoted as saying "I was
there with my wife Ellie" when referring to a trip to Paris.

-- He claims to be a 2200 rated player, but facts show that he's a
mid-1300 player. He lies about that until he can't lie any more,
THEN claims that the "Ed Trice" on USCF's rating site is not even
really him, it's his cousin, yet has a link to the rating site on his
own Wiki page that clearly shows that he's lying. He's too stupid to
even be a good liar.

-- Makes trip to Iceland with Frank Camaratta, but never meets
Fischer. Supposedly goes to Iceland again by himself (with no
witnesses) and magically meets Fischer with nobody around to verify
this. Very convenient.

-- He claims one day to be a British citizen, but then the very next
day (when it's convenient for his argument) hides behind the fact that
he's a U.S. citizen and has rights. Talk about lying so much that
YOU don't even know what the truth is anymore.

-- The moron shows up at the World Open with a t-shirt that basically
advertises that he perpetrated the "My 61 Memorable Games" hoax,
arrogantly has someone take a picture of him (not a very flattering
one by the way), and doesn't even play a single game of chess in the
tournament. What an idiot.

This is just off the top of my head, I'm sure that the list could go
on much further. Feel free to contribute to the E.T. Wall of Lies.

rebuttals, as always.

that you were claiming that the Gothic Chess Association had 20,000

entries.

I contacted several people who might know the truth of your claims,

I AM LAUGHING MY ASS OFF.

"personal service" that is valid, correct?

BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Wrong answer "slow Eddie", Eddie "La Master" Bate.

you'd get some Mail Boxes etc. clown to "sign for it."

It ain't my signature. I know nothing about it, except you made some

I spent a lot of time tracking down and documenting your lies, and
when I discovered that you were involved in the "61 Memorable Games"
scam I contacted Edward Labate and offered to help him destroy you. He
is now in possession of all the evidence I collected and no doubt a
lot of it will be presented in court in due course.

I can't believe anyone, even yourself, believes that I am the same
person as Edward Labate, but if anyone wants to contact me directly
they are more then welcome to do so.

Best wishes,

Jon D'Souza-Eva
