Larry - how about a prize for the LAST post? Posted by Kerry Liles on August 27, 2008, 19:10:53 not the musical version either...  Post a Response

Re: Larry - how about a prize for the LAST post? Posted by Paul Bonham on August 27, 2008, 23:40:22, in reply to "Larry - how about a prize for the LAST post?" To make the contest interesting, just before midnight on Aug 31st, someone please post a message claiming that: 1) the CFC is in the best shape ever in its history 2) Bruce Harper wants everyone to stop going to chess tournaments and only play against computers 3) combining chess and poker events is a marriage made in heaven 4) the French Winawer is in a long overdue revival phase 5) people on Chesstalk are the most open-minded, tolerant, good-humored people anywhere 6) chess at the highest levels is too wild and unpredictable. Rule changes are needed to settle the game down (and if this results in more draws, that's a bonus)  Post a Response

The 6 Points We Should Make....... Posted by Ken on August 28, 2008, 0:07:26, in reply to "Re: Larry - how about a prize for the LAST post?" Of course, only # 5 would be true, correct? Or would it? Now, wait a minute! What exactly are you trying to say? Tee! Hee!  Post a Response

Re: The 6 Points We Should Make....... Posted by Paul Bonham on August 28, 2008, 3:44:15, in reply to "Re: The 6 Points We Should Make......." I was just checking who is up at 1:42 in the morning and reading the old Chesstalk board! The six points I made are what I remember best of the old board. I think the people who like the NEW board possibly do so because from what I've seen, these kinds of topics are absent there. Little do they realize that once Larry shuts down the old board, all of us who debate these important topics are going to pop up on the new board, and "there goes the neighborhood!". That's right, folks: Lucas Davies and Bruce Harper are packing up and ready to move in!  Post a Response
