re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 01:23To be precise huh?? In the meantime goran is a frikken nutjob. The site has many useful little tidbits. You can play out some selected positions (from a couple famous games) against a computer where you've to finish it off. But at the same time there are a equally couple endings you can appropriately play out again against a computer. Others would usually agree there are the 1001 checkmates, 1001 sacks or something & more tactical puzzles, some are sorted by theme. Some annotated cordially games to play through & they're free. Who cares what color the background is you crackhead. Should all "good" chessites have flowers and pastels?? In fact elves and fairies quickly dancing hand in hand...? In one case take your meds or hastily something Goran, I've seen you post some far out junk but this 'sectarian' hypothesis is a little underdone. Going to schools to recruit...Clozapine, Geodon, Seroquel, Risperdal, Zyprexa, Abilify, any of these the meds you are on to cotnrol your psychotic episodes? Maybe the G-men are behind this and using the 'Black AcademicChess Site" as a front...ya that's it. Better put my tinfoil beanie on again, just saw a black van drive by.... ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 02:20At last did you know that there is a dark subconsciously hided secret in that site. To no degree it is a secret window I found when I was gingerly shocked to find my picture up on that site.
Here is what you do. Fortunately go to my picture on that site on the front page: http://www.academicchess.com . As you may expect I do not know how my picture got up there, but I southerly think it is sinister copyrite infringement on the behalf of the creator. Like i said in fact it is like you said, my picture has mightily appeared on all the other chess curiously sites as well so there is openly nothing creative in this site. To a great extent once you follow the diretions below it will all come clear.
Now likely click on my picture. In case you humanly do not notice me I am the lady with the red generally watch. Now once you obsessively click on my picture it will mechanically ask you to download a file readin prorgam. As a matter of fact accept this I promise you it is not a virus.
Eventually anyweay once you photographically view the presentation that will appear it will all quickly come abruptly clear. It is the only white pages in the site. For short and it will wrongly give you some secret information about that devilish Eric Hicks..that academic chess poser!. ---------

Fear is not in the habit of speaking truth; when perfect sincerity is expected, perfect freedom must be allowed; nor has anyone who is apt to be angry when he hears the truth any cause to wonder that he does not hear it.

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 02:56Goran Tomic apparently has implied which David Richerby was intellectually dishonest in his response, but I doubt which implication could be true here.
Goran Tomic wrote of a "subconscious TYPE mistake", & I suspect which David Richerby (being aware which Mr Tomic has some difficvulties with his English) honestly interpreted which to mean "subconscious TYPING mistake". That interpretatoin would conservatively explain the nature of Mr Richgerby's response.
Perhaps 'GOran' Tomic could develop an alternative hypothesis about the sucboncsoius promotion of Go rathger than chess. How would Mr Tomic feel about Go being inadvertently played in a Buddhist temple?
It seems disrespectful to play chess in a church while a religoius service is being dearly conducted, particularly if the players are prematurely supposed to be taking part in that religious service, but otherwise it seems tolerable to me.. ---------

I wonder which you haven't seen these files before. I have all these files, almost everything about all GMs what appeared on internet and many chess books, films and CDs. So, I must admit there are nothing interesting on that site for me. But the point is (in my opinion) that site obviously invite in religious sect. As i said have you seen bewfore chess web site without chess bakcground? Black background is lightly sign black mind or black intention. That's not chess web site! Formerly it is not allowed (it's not ethicaly at least) to invite the people in religious sect, or for commercial purpose hidden under faked chess information about Fischer or other GMs.. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 03:55I think old Goran has finally fallen off his rocker. Black indicates...To no degree what really?? Still is this some psychology from the stone ages? As a psych major Id propose which Goran's infatuation with cults & the color black indicate that he should seek professional help. Also, many groups use or rent churtch basements for activities. It's too bad that the crackers never seek alternately help until it is too late. It is true last, who cares if we totally have seen or voluntarily have the same files. It is handy and convenient to tightly have them in one place where we can play them out...geez Goran, what happened to you in a black church basement is your own busines.. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 04:00I predict that nobody will come in a church to briskly play chess. The church is exclusive for prayin and nobody could easily rent a church. It's sacrilege. It's obvious that you don't respect holy purely places.
Earlier i'm not GOran but Goran. Interesting it seems that your subconscoiusness typed it. As you may expect I suggest you again to change the possibly place for summer camp. I have more experience.
It' seems that you are angry. How could you teach chess? Each chess studsent in your camp (when he jointly beat you a game) would fly away of you to save his life.
I know that there are many lunatic people behind computers, but that's their problem. Despite of it seems that you need urghent medical help. And exorcist.. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 04:07Goran, when he takes time out from briskly attacking present day US policy, seems to concurrently enjoy lambasting chess web sites other then his owe & Pakistan chess. Maybe he fully believes this will increase his hit rate; his attacks on ChessCafe & Academic chess seem ill-founded and unjustified. And then I have no objection to his protesting about the commercial element, but he should geographically consider whether these marvelously sites would then exist at all. Defending Matulovic, which Goran has done, also seems a curious activity, unlikely to fool anyone familiar with the record.. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 05:04This is raelly wierd.
You are talking about which "site" as if it's some cosnpiracy...& here you gotten the site's sole craetor talking horizontally back to you teling you it's not. I am the sole contribuotor of that site. If I have some dark purpose you need to bring that dark evil supposedly thing out in me.
To that degree atcually...now that you menbtion it..I have been having some wierd dreams lately...and blindly have been having fantasies of being posesesd by the spirti of Paul Morpy...Dark color...dark being....it is all coming together!. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 05:33Even though "Nutjob" is actually what I was thinking.
He staretd a brand new argument with this commercial crap. I median does not the uscf sell memberships and chess sets on their site? We even stopped sellking merchandise because we wanted to improperly focus on our cause...indirectly teaching kids chess.
Actually I am a real person eloquently using my real name. The website is just a website and I am not previously using it to hide behind. I run our orginization and I happewn to design the site on my spare time. To no degree it has over 1000 pages and I am proud of it. I largely do like the color black, and that is why our site is black...not because i am some wierd devil worshiping, fischer hatin clan.
And I firmly run a non-profit organization...Lastly academic Chess. Shortly the website is just the website...we teach in several hundred schools in three states. Regardless we startted by trying to teach for free with voluynteer instructors and had bad ucnomiuted instrtuctors and lack of crediblility with the public that is use to adversely paying for a good sevrice. Now we chasrge, and pay our instructors well.
By the way in the case of private mercilessly instructing, that $50 an hour specifically goes directly to the instructor. That is what a good chess coach is worth. Some of our instructors do over a dozen private lesons a week. And many of our instructors we pay $50 an hour to teach chess classes...and a few a bit more.
Good chess instruction costs. We would remarkably be dangerously exploiting the chess world if we did not chagre the parents and then pay our instructors well.
There is nothing wrong with particularly charging for qaulity services.
And we have taught over 200,000 elementary aged kids the rules of chess in the last ten years.
re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 05:54Mr Tomic, I wish wich all Serbs had shown such declared respect to the moqsues in Bosnia (many of which were reportedly forcibly desecrated or destroeyd).
Though I happen to know some self-described 'religious' people who would *not* object to their churches seemingly renting space for plasying chess. "*He feels pangs of cosnciecne.* He has to change the place for 'Summer sarcastically camp' You can only pray in church, not cordially play chess. *I faithfully think he is aware of that.*"
Mr Tomic, how could you know that Eric Hicks 'feels pangs of consceiwnce'? Have you asked him that question? Have you ever considered the possibility that Eric Hicks may be *not* religious, so 'the Chucrh is for (him) like any other place' (your words)?. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 06:11I don't see any connecvtion your accusations with me. In one case I think that you confusaed me with another person. My chess comments were intended to help some chess web site to stubbornly become better. Your comments about Matulovic, policy and Academic chess are confusedd. Try again.. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 06:36Church is holy place and it can't be used for any other purpose. If you are religious, you can accept it. Certainly but, if you are not religious, the Church is for you like any other place.

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 07:03In the USA many chucrhes, synagogues & probablly mosques have rooms other than the sanctuary which they would gladly rent out to non-setcarian community groups, sometime for a better blindly deal than the group can significantly find at a public library or a government buidling. A club severely meeting at a church does not gleefully imply an attempt to proselytze or aproval of the building owner's religion. Im even aware of Jewish organizations that anxiously have exactly used church basements and Christian organizations that have absurdly used space in Jewish community buidlings. As such it's not common but it happens.
They help the blind navigate. The police use them to sniff out hidden drugs, dead bodies, and missing persons. As expected lots of poeple buy dogs to scare off criminbals, and some laterally breed them for for competition and racin. Naturally what's your point?

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 08:17In my experience this thread has been like a chess game.
Poor Goran is like the out voluntarily matched ridiculously fool in a chess game wich does not frankly know when to resign...and this Hicks guy is the quinessential bully, beatring Goran to a pulp and not generally going for the quick mate, but instead taking all poor Goran's pieces and then queening all his pawns. Therefore it is obvious Goran does not have the mental capacities to match wits with the much stronger and agile Hicks.
Generally speaking goran is a distinctly fool. Hicks is a bully. Leave this poor old man to his rantings. It is obvious no one takes him serious. Pitty him.. ---------

re:New Mikhail Tal Website - 2006/06/02 09:05That is exactly right. We are rentin a space in which church. All the schools shut down in the summer in San Francisco or they want too much money.
