Phil Innes expounds on "Journalism" by samsloan
Those of us who want to take a break from discussions of serious topics and just to enjoy a good laugh for a change need go no further that look at what our "Nearly an IM" Phil Innes says when he calls himself a "journalist" (at the genius level no less) and expounds on the subject of "Journalism". Apparently, Innes must feel that anyone who posts a lot to this group is a "journalist", as he has...

Wait...Sam Sloan is a USCF board member? by whystopnow
I last read this group about five years ago...it was hoot then, between Sam's schizophrenic ramblings and lawsuits, the Crossville debacle, shouts of corruption everywhere, blah blah...I eventually got bored. Today I check back for the first time and see that Sam Sloan is a board member!?!? My God, that is funny. Please tell me members' dues are being used to fly him back and forth from...

Revised analysis of Mottershead / Jones / Ulevitch reports by Guy Macon
For the record, here is my analysis. I have some degree of expertise in this area; I estimate my own skills to be roughly equal to those of Mottershead, and I estimate both of us to have skills well below those of Robert Jones and David Ulevitch, both of whom are well-known experts. I would also like to note that when I first posted this analysis, I invited those who think that Truong...

Marcus W. Roberts by jeremy.p.spinrad@vanderbilt.edu
I have taken a great deal of guilty pleasure in reading the posts of Mr. Roberts. My daughter had always found St Kitts and Nevis an amusing little country even before I read his posts, and we both have enjoyed its appearance on the (sur)real world stage. I would feel quite bad, however, if I would read in the papers that he had been driven to some desperate act because of his perceived enemies....

Second Draft: Invitation to Bridge by samsloan
Introduction Invitation to Bridge is a basic beginners book. It is suitable even for someone who has never previously seen a deck of cards. It was first published in 1950. It is important to remember that Bridge was a relatively young game in 1950. Contract Bridge was first popularized in 1925. The First Bermuda Bowl, which is the term for World Team Championships, was held in 1950, the same...

Dead board = dead board (bored) game! by parrthenon@cs.com
IS CHESS DYING? This topic is addressed in chapter 15 of THIS CRAZY WORLD OF CHESS by GM Larry Evans. Also see: http://tinyurl.com/2fdrth Chess is different today. Now players have vast databases at their fingertips and openings have been analyzed so extensively that master games often begin in earnest after a dozen moves instead of move one.

Trolgar Blows Smoke Again by Brian Lafferty
