Will be banned for misuse of power. (Chief KM Quote)

I have not deleted any posts in this board today. If they were moderated, Fencer has done the moderating.

There are some posts that still don't belong here. If you want everyone to see what you wrote, let it remain. Otherwise, moderate yourselves.

CaoZ KM, no disrespect was intended. I wish I could afford to support the site the way you have. You are kinda my brainking hero :)

although not fully confirmed by recorded facts.

There is open sign up for KM Open Chess Surgery for those who are interested.

I see there are 37 posts that showed up here while I was teaching my Gothic Chess classes.

If you believe your post does not belong here, please feel free to remove it voluntarily.

If there is something you would like to discuss privately with another member, such as Reversi, Othello, variants...exercise your right to do so as well.

I will start by removing my post about reversi.

I am requesting members and friends of the KM don't post on this DB regarding this stuff and leave the DB for its intended purpose.

No, in your heart you devise injustice,
and your hands mete out violence on the earth.

Although as kinda erotic stimulation it would only suite a perverted one.
While several answers flashing up disappear. Private Must here - ewwww.

There's real existant money speaking. Bravo Carlos I.!

The Maharajah has spoken. All hail. Long live the Maharajah.

ED, Reversi or Othello has to many history and variants and was invented before you and me was born and there is a lot of great players in all the world,and they have an International federation that deserves respect after all.

Carlos

Then the LORD God said to the woman,
"What is this you have done?"
The woman said,
"The serpent deceived me, and I ate.

If you scroll way to the bottom of the first list, which is the list of those who played Chinook, the world's strongest checker program for years, on its most difficult setting, you will see...


86. Ed Trice, October 21, 1996
87. Carl "The Gloc" Reno, October 21, 1996
88. Richard Fortman, August 30, 1996
89. Valtas "The Great Huck-A-Buck" Hockenbury, June 10, 1996
90. Carl "The Gloc" Reno, March 31, 1996
91. James "Too Slick" Davis, January 27, 1996

93. James "Too Slick" Davis, January 17, 1996

I was the fifth person to defeat Chinook, back in October of 1996. Just to remind everyone,in 1996 there did not exist any program that was nearly as strong as Chinook. This was a time when 100 MHz computers were top of the line, and hard drives were typically half a gig in size.

I beat one of the strongest checker programs of all time, and I was in the company of some truly great players.

I don't need a computer program to assist me to play. I beat the best of the best.

Now look at the "explosion' of names on the list in later years as programs and hardware advances made them more formidable.

Funny how so few had victories in 1996 when I played, but there were many more in later years.

Sunfire played a very good game, and looks very like taking the next one too, as does ronco in my games.

Whats more amazing is that I can still post here LMAO
I still got more spaces to fill in my Reversi Tournys, please sign up.
Be good if the Gothster could join in, cos I dont think hes got a programme to win with :o)

We're talking about that on the Tournament Talk DB too.

Cept we have more people reading it there.

It looks like gooner KM and ronco have both shell shocked Pedro Martínez with two quick wins in the Aragon's Checkered Past tournament. And SunFire KM gets a quick point against higher rated Aragon in section 2. Still no points on the board in section 1 at this early stage.

what's with the doubles??

posts seem to have disappeared. I wonder if that's the glitch (or an itch of somekind) that people were talking about?

Yes, it’s a great fellowship and it’s filling up fast. Pretty soon this old place will probably be pretty quiet so get over here quick. Lots of tournament talking without the buncombe.

See you there!!!!

The Tournament begins Friday!!

When is the start date for this Rob? Isn't it already past?

And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction
of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their
cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;

A new fellowship has been created to discuss tournaments. Please message me for an invite.

Less than 5 days remain to sign-up for "The Gothic Realm's" 1st ever tournament, so sharpen your lances and come enjoy the fun!

Thad, perhaps we should respect religious emphasis about private life.
For the topic: "Wishbone Anyone?" could be a good title for Dark Chess. :-)

I am not sure to what you are referring. My guess is that Fencer moderated something?

Perhaps you should discuss this with him privately.

I've created another prize tournament.
8x10 battles!

I will have to improve the board system.
And now, please, let's discuss tournament topics only.
