Win with Damiano's Defense by samsloan
Win with Damiano's Defense I just got back from the US Open where I had a terrible result, my worst performance in years. It was not that my score was so bad. I scored 4.5 - 4.5, an even score shared by many strong players. It was how I achieved that score. I lost three games in a row to players rated hundreds of points lower than myself. Even the games I won should not have been won. Polly...

Seriously Sam, What Was it Like? by Bruce

I'd like to start by asking Sam to give us his impressions of what it was like to be on the USCF Board as an elected member? What did he enjoy most, which of his accomplishments is he most proud of and also what things was he upset, annoyed or angry about? Rather than bash Sam, which will I...

At the first meeting of the new executive board at 3:00 PM on Sunday August 5, 2007, Dewain Barber said that he had posted eight times to this forum and that in view of the nastiness of the response to his postings he was asking the board to shut down this forum for 30 days.

USCF Financial Situation? by Bruce
I remember when I left chess politics that the USCF was having financial difficulties nearly every year. Everyone had their opinions about what was wrong and how to deal with it (or not deal with it) but not only did we keep hiring ineffective ED's we also kept losing 6 figures every year, forcing us to dip into our LMA funds or to borrow against our building. I just wondered how USCF has been...

"Dead" by Chess One
This exchange reminds me of the Monty Python sketch of the dead parrot, where John Cleese has to insist that it is not repining, resting, hibernating ... its dead! This exchange is about USCF as it actually is, not what is proposed to be at the fag-end of yet another election, full of promises and naught else. //Phil Innes They have enough bucks to go another few years, if there is no...
