A smilie now in total shock!



The Joker says...



I *don't* know! :p

And, besides "knowing his chess" very well, Russianbear also "plays his chess" VERY WELL.

In fact, out of all of the people whom that I have seen who have played in the TONC Tournaments that I have been a part of here on this Message Board, (TONC's 3 through 7), I will say here, that, in my opinion, the only player who is probably a better player than Russianbear is Matt!

Anyway, with all of the recent "drop-outs from moderator consideration here", this is my latest revised list of the people whom that I support for moderator here on this Message Board:

1. SachBinger

2. Octal

3. Russianbear

4. Niceforkinmove


Chess Fan

You belittled your own character. If you didn't like my opinions on Topalov, that was your prerogative, but retaliating by inventing wild stories about having your posts being deleted en masse, when in fact not a single one had been until Inky did at the end was flatly dishonest.

That I opened a thread to belittle you is another falsehood. I opened it to answer the challenge you issued to me regarding the so-called deleted posts. If you were afraid of the facts and didn't want to hear them, you shouldn't have requested them. You made a bargain that you would leave the board if it were proven that I hadn't done it, but you have, so far, broken your promise.

You're a very odd fellow. You slander people, apparently deliberately, and then imagine yourself a victim when you get caught doing it.

"We find the [posts] written by Mr. [enpassant], to Mr. [Petrosianic]... disgraceful. [They are] abusive, contradictive with the FIDE motto "Gens una sumus", moreover, Mr [enpassant] not only accussed [sic] Mr. [Petrosianic] of cheating, without showing any serious evidence, but already found him guilty, prior to any investigation. -- Association of Chess Professionals Press Release, paraphrased

No, you're thinking of the R/B Return of the King. That thing is the Plan Nine of Outer Space of fantasy. Where there's a whip (crack!) there's a way. We don't wanna go to war today!


And I've found that a good chorus of "Frodoooooooo of the Nine Fingers, and the Ring of Doooom" kills roaches in my house far more effectively than any bug bomb can.

Yep, I had my eye on that knight, and was calculating various exchanges. I was looking at 12...Nxd4 but was worried about 13. Na4 forcing my queen back and then I'd lose my N for a center pawn. Thought I could exchange his N with my B, but then Q comes in and checks me. I completely missed the winning line 13. Nxe2+ as I was spending too much time going down the wrong branches. I think this is area #1 where I need to improve--in correspondence I can afford to have these bad calculation habits, but it is definitely a big weakness in on-line games.

Yep, more non-topic posting...the new mods will have their hands full sorting this out

Edit: just saw Krish's post. Thank you, Krish. But nope (my sweetie keeps telling me to go for it though, but nope to her too )

I never apologized to you. This is another misrepresentation.

I agree 110% - make those mods work! :p

On a side-note: I actually like to post non-topic random items within topics just because of the challenge later of simply knowing that I posted something somewhere, but where the "H" did I post it! :laff:
Besides, it also keeps me busy...

Also, just wanted to 'pop in' and thank all of you that either supported or thought of me (although as was made clear, I was really never a 'mod candidate' by my own choice) to: enpassant, Steve K, LF, G-Cube, mad hatter & Chess Fan especially. Also to octal, Ed, Russianbear, Matt and rondino for making me laugh! Lastly to inky for setting the CN Forum Board record straight...

Maybe sometime later when I have my health issues all in order (the finances have been straightened out as the Social Security Administration now finally agrees with me - I'm 100% disabled).

I say random postings for a better CN!

Regards, - Mal

PS: Now in search of Tal Memorial Blitz games!

I have had at least 10 posts deleted of mine deleted since I joined Chessninja messageboards. I know what I have been posting and what has been deleted. There is no way for me to know that the message count doesn't downcount when somebody deletes the posts. But again, I never directly accused you of deleting my posts. I just said that my posts had been deleted.

Next , I never said that I would leave the messageboards if proven wrong. I just said that Mig can delete my account if he finds me guilty. Your pronouncing me guilty is not equivalent to Mig finding me guilty. Since , he has not so far deleted my account, I have to presume that he has not found me guilty.

Next, you have no locus standi to represent the Association of Chess Professionals. This is another misrepresentation.

Another personal attack.

Can't you give it up and go complain somewhere else? If you don't want to face the fact that you've posted maliciously and disingenuously, don't post malicious and disingenuous messages. This forum has been remarkably tolerant of your conduct, which of late has mainly consisted of trolling. Stop trolling and you will have no trouble from Petrosianic or anyone else. Continue to belabor this point and you will continue to be an object of the ridicule you deserve.
