61 Memorable Games by Jason_911
Ed Trice tried to steal $10000 from Ed Labate: http://www.labatechess.com/61_games.html He also sells land on Mars!: http://legallyownlandonmars.com/ You'd think he'd be too busy running his Gothic Chess Federation since he claims fifty thousand people are playing the game now.

Joel Channing's Threats To Resign by samsloan
Now, Joel Channing has posted to the USCF Issues Forum a statement that he resigns effective immediately if the vote to cancel the "Internet Insurance" passes. The problem with this is that at every meeting while I was on the board, Channing said that he was considering resigning. This is clearly part of his bullying tactics, saying "If you don't do things my way, I am taking my ball and...

Don Schultz defends "Internet Insurance" by samsloan
Yes the EB approved it but the stakes are now higher - the loss of an important Board member, who has opportunities in the oven and the fact that at least one Board member feels that the very existence of the USCF is at risk because of the potential magnitude of legal developments. Personally I agree with that assessment. Right or wrong, Susan's potential marketability is enormous and its...

Rating Scandals... by J.D. Walker
I am still trying to learn more about this subject. I ran across one quote that stuck me as pretty remarkable... "True, I couldn't lose USCF points but who the hell cares about USCF ratings anyway. There is only one rating that counts: FIDE." -- Eric Schiller after losing a match to Nicholas Nip Eric Schiller had a ratings floor in effect for his USCF rating during this match. After a...

For Susie Chesspiece ( Hanken) by Brian Lafferty
From chessdiscussion this morning: by SusanPolgar on Tue Apr 08, 2008 12:21 am Whatever Mr. Hanken did in this matter is between him, the family which suffered this tragedy and the state of California. I do not know enough about it to render judgment. What matters to me is his current or recent conduct, not what happened 8 years ago. I have personally witnessed a few incidents involving Mr....

Polgar Moves to Shut Down Forums by Brian Lafferty
I've been told by three people that Susie Chesspiece has made a motion to do away with the USCF forums. Will he motion succeed? Will there be a deal to get Channing to stay if the forums are closed? Does it matter if the forums are closed given the state of moderation there? So much for Susie Chesspiece's commitment to free speech, not that she ever had one.
