Neil Brennen's claim to fame is that he invented the term "Trollgar"
which has been widely copied and is almost universally accepted. Now, will you stop changing the title to these threads. Note that I have changed the title. It used to be "Neil Brennen's claim to fame." I have changed it to Neil Brennen's claim to fame (no dot.) |

Now for some "real chess" news
http://www.chessworld.net/chessclubs...sp?from=179341 The Chessville Knights of Neep have won their division at chessworld.net! The Chessville Knights of Neep! The Chessville Knights of Neep! vs. Raptors 4-1 The Chessville Knights of Neep! vs. The crushers 5-0 The Chessville Knights of Neep! vs. The Sharks 5-2 The Chessville Knights of Neep! vs. Intergalactic Net Travelers 3-4 Points Scored/ Total Points Possible 33/46 Anyone who wants to play is invited. Quite a few regular posters here played but I will not mention them all unless they offer that themselves. I have invited many of my attackers to play friendly games but few take me up on it. Mr. Bot joined and we have played several games and I must say he has always been cordial and helpful during play and never one rubs my nose in any of my frequent bad moves! Taylor, Brennen and Sloan have all been invited to play as has Stephen . None will accept. |

I applaud your use of brevity here, a most refreshing change. Any proof to your statements? How about a /reverse proof/: 1. Phil Innes is a weak player. 2. Phil Innes has *not* been driven away from rgc. 3. Therefore, it must be the strong players who have been driven away from rgc (if indeed any have been). Or this: 1. The strongest player who has not (yet) been driven away from rgc is 2300+ Taylor Kingston, who is really a Class A player. 2. It appears that all /really strong/ players have already been driven off. 3. The most likely cause is they don't like idiots like nearly-IMnes and Mr. Sloan. 4. Most likely, if nearly-IMnes stays, they will not return. But if nearly-IMnes travels to where the strong players are now, they may leave and come here to rgc (to get away from him). 5. Therefore, nearly-IMnes should enter real chess tournaments and stop posing here. Posting, I meant. (No, really-- it was just a slip.) -- proof bot |

FYI: some of the invitations I have received came when the tourneys in question were already filled up, or at least so it seemed. But there is also the small matter of the proclamation "We are the Knights of Neep; we battle evil chess politicians, tilt at windmills and indeed, have a dozen different chess teams, not all of which are named for silly Monty Python themes". I'm just waiting for a better theme; like, say, James Bond ("we save the world every day-- without spilling a drop of vodka") or the Pink Panther ("you will never see these silly pajamas again, I can assure you, Ms. Down... hohohoh"). -- help bot |

Just when I think I found something ticky I end up playing worse than "get chess". LOL The last few tournaments I have had that have been "open" tournaments fill up pretty quickly. I can restrict private tournaments to full members but that leaves a few out. We even had Yelena Dembo playing in one tournament. I learned to not play goofy gambits against a WGM. LOL Rob |

you didn't play me when you had the chance. As usual, you have to suppose a
lot instead ![]() PI "help bot" wrote in message ... On Jul 24, 1:13 pm, Javert wrote: Sam Sloan's universe is 10 people big. Like other strong players she used to post here.

It's an established fact P Innes never has proof for his statements. |
