This will be my last post on this Forum if my posts are to be taken down.

As I suspect it will not be reinstated I will get back to running my organisation.

Farewell Chess friends and remember Cheaters NEVER prosper.

Sniper out.

Enjoy your night mate.

Nick this one is much cooler...anyone who thinks the above is entitled to this idea but the fact is. We love to play the best players and this ensures that. We love that this tournament supports chess as a profession for both Female and Male players. You lads seem quite focussed when my players mess...

This is very sad indeed, given the suddenness of it. My deepest condolences to Bala and the rest of his family, they are well loved in the chess community. To our 4NCL friends(and rivals) @ Barbican, sorry for your loss. Also to people like Matt Turner and his family who I know helped Peter loads th...

Lets be honest, Gormally the 'peoples champion' is the one I want to see win from here..

I find it totally shocking that you cannot buy next seasons membership but you can buy a year for 5 weeks now(expires Aug 2014). I do not know how they operate the business model @ the EC...

The main candidate for demotion from Division 1 was obvious, even before the first round had even started. This was of course Grantham Sharks 2 :lol: Under a complete fiasco of management by Kevin McCarthy :lol: :oops: Grantham Sharks managed to lose three IMs and an Olympiad member before the roun...

Funny how little the forum knows about going rates. Which does not surprise me. Firstly there is no going rate. Barbican have perhaps 20 players over this rating and they dont pay a dime. I know of plenty of grandmasters who have played fot free. That being said if you are talking about players who ...

Interesting about the numbers of chess players. In terms of people who play the game casually . Id say surely over 500m just look at the recent WC viewing figures. In india, china and the ussr countries you will get near that number.
