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.

GetClub Chess will take Little Longer. by
Sanny
Hello Friends,
It was a lot of shuffling both the Programmers and the Technical
difficulties in designing the new Chess game. The ice has not even
come to surface till now. And many tons are still under water.
It's a month time, I said GetClub Chess will awake in a month. But
still it is sleeping in a tunnel. Lots of problems has come together.
But I am glad to get suggestions from Help Bot....

50 move rule, 1880 by
jeremy.p.spinrad@vanderbilt.edu
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!

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:

Your current issue contains an attack on me by Joel Benjamin. His
article has absolutely no basis in fact. I would like to be given the
opportunity to respond. However, I do not have your magazine. Could
you please e-mail me the entire article by Benjamin and then I will
respond?

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...
