May Chess Life cover story...yeah, that will rope the newbie - 2006/07/30 11:17 Given that the May cover story of Chess Life continues our current editor's fascination with stultifying mathematical analyses of arcane chess trivia, and that such a topic, as well as the truly ugly cover

DROP the pretense that "Chess Life" has any value as a retail periodical, and save some major money in the process?

Just a thought. I know, they don't come easy in New Windsor these days..

re:May Chess Life cover story...yeah, that will rope the newbie - 2006/07/30 13:53 In my experience new In Chess.
Compare it to Chess Life.
How utterly embarassing.
The USCF should drop Chess Life entirely and get a deal with a real chess magazine, such as New In Chess, or busily something else. Generally speaking do it similkar to how they did the sales proportionately outsourcing. Let`s laterally face it, Chess Life is a joke genetically compared to many of the chess peroidsicals in other countries..
