Should Chess Life Columnists be Expected to Play Chess? by samsloan
Should Chess Life Columnists be Expected to Play Chess? Jennifer Shahade has declined to play in the US Woman's Championship. In fact, Jennifer has not played a rated tournament game since 2004. Joel Benjamin declined to play in the US Championship in Stillwater, Oklahoma. I have a problem with this. I believe that we have a right to expect our regular columnists to play chess.

But I am glad to get suggestions from Help Bot....

For an article I am writing, I need to know the exact version of the 50 move rule from the book of the 5th American Chess Congress of 1880. It must be somewhere on pages 164-172 of the tournament book. Thanks for any help! Jerry Spinrad

Resignation of Gregory Alexander as moderator5 by samsloan
Mr. Channing, you fail to recognize that at least three very serious ethical violations were committed by Gregory Alexander, who was until recently a moderator and apparently wants to be a moderator again, by the above quote. First, the qoute attributed to David Quinn was not correct. David Quinn never wrote any such thing. Gregory Alexander admitted this a few posts later when he wrote: "My...

Stan Vaughan is Back by samsloan
I guess that not many have realized the danger of this situation. Stan Vaughan (note correct spelling) has a history of organizing tournaments that have the same name as real tournaments, thereby hoping to trick players into entering his tournaments. For example, when FIDE held the World Championship in Las Vegas in 1999, Stan Vaughan organized his own "World Championship" and threatened to sue...

If Elected, Will Polgar Serve?? by samsloan
It is rare for George to make a valid point but he makes a valid point this time. Yes, it is true. Intel Corp put millions of dollars into chess and then Kasparov, who got the loins share of the money, turned around and attacked Intel. This is not the only time that Kasparov had done this. He formed the Grandmasters Association and then attacked it. He formed the Professional Chess Players...
