Subject: I met the Great Ed Trice
I just got back from the World Open in Philadelphia. On July 6, 2008,
yesterday, just before leaving the playing site, I met the Great Ed
Trice. This meeting was made possible by Dan Heisman, whose name is
often mentioned in connection with Ed Trice and the "My 61 Memorable
Games" Hoax.

I then introduced Ed Trice to Jerry Hanken, who promised to interview
him.

Ed Trice was walking around the World Open wearing a "My 61 Memorable
Games" t-shirt.

I did not have much time to speak to Ed Trice because my last game had
just finished and I was rushing to catch the last bus back to New
York. Last year and the year before, it happened that I had to stay
another night in Philadelphia after the World Open because all the
buses to New York were full, this being the conclusion of July 4th
weekend. Therefore I was rushing to get to the bus station so that
this would not happen again, especially since I had my wife and six-
year-old daughter with me. (Fortunately, I made it. I caught one of
the last Chinese buses to New York and by chance I got a seat next to
Grandmaster Leonid Yudasin, who analyzed and commented on my pet
Damiano's Defense on the bus trip back to New York.)

Ed Trice said that he was the last American to be in contact with
Bobby Fischer before Fischer died and that he had arranged a 15
million dollar match between Fischer and Karpov just before Fischer
died. Ed Trice also said that Susan Polgar had agreed to take
Fischer's place in the match in case Fischer walked out after the
match had started. (I did not think to ask, but I assume that Susan
wanted part of that $15 million.)

Ed Trice had many uncomplimentary things to say about Ed Labate.

Ed Trice said a lot of other things too. However, I was rushing to
catch the bus and did not write them down.

Here is a simple, non-hostile question for Mr. Trice:

Why do you show your ELO as 2277 in the game against D. Bozzini on
your personal chessgames.com page, when the USCF website clearly shows
your rating to be 1371 at the time of that particular game?

http://main.uschess.org/component/option,com_wrapper/Itemid,181/

Just curious.

Well=85 Ok. I feel the need to clarify one thing. While =93The Trice=94

taken absolutely no legal action against me here on Planet Earth, I

they like to hang out with Arnold Schwarzenegger at his summer home
located in Mars=92 northern polar caps, a property that Schwarzenegger
purchased from Trice=92s company, legallyownlandonmars.com, according
to
the company=92s website. While there, they sit around, drink beer, and
play Gothic Chess while listening to Martian Operas that chronicle
the
saga of Trice=92s heroic dealings with the late Bobby Fischer. Then
they eat pie.

It is so sad that someone as great as Trice-a-roni has had such
obsticles cast in his way. His university has no record of him
graduating. The company he claims to work for is lost in the "Marvel"
universe. He has been crushed by a car and divorced by a wife he never
had. He lost Donald Trumps 15 million dollar debit card and then
wonders why George Ross won't return his calls. He can't come up with
the money for a retainer because he thinks folks should work for free.
He travels to Iceland and gets sick when Fischer won't see him. Make
two other trips back to Iceland( and meets Fischer but has no
witinesses and then Fischer dies). His collaboration with Fischer on
"my 61 memorable games" appears to have been ghost written with him by
the imaginary Fischer he met with. The USCF has managed to screw up
his rating, and only his, so badly that a 2277 rating claimed by Trice-
a-roni can't peak above 1430 after five years of play!( The USCF
program must have it in for him!) His Delorian stopped running after
the professor took his flux capacitor and it spends it's life on
blocks at his mommy's house

MageOfMaple:
Legallyownlandonmars has been up and down recently... But the link to
Martian property owned by celebrities is a dead link. I wonder why.

MageOfMaple:
Trice admits being behind legallyownlandonmars.com but says that it is
obviously a "prototype" that you would have to be "stupid" to take
seriously. But there is an entire page explaining that there are no
international treaties preventing the sale of Martian property and
explaining how such a sale is possible. Strange thing to include on a
"prototype." Then there is also a section explaining that numerous
famous personalities have already made purchases =96 obviously a
misrepresentation if they don't really sell Martian real estate as
Trice now claims.

Trice also said "We sell the modules with REAL DATA to real estate
companies all over the USA." Who's we, I wonder? According to his
Linked-In page he works for "Four Incorporated." Um=85 Yeah. That's
the fictional company that employs the Fantastic Four in the Marvel
comic. But hey, I think that's awesome! I wonder if he'd introduce
me to the Invisible Woman? 'cause she's really hot. when she's

Dear BANKRUPT BUFOON,
I know you weren't selling land on Mars since you didn't have
ownership. But when has ownership stopped you from running a scam.
And why would anyone with a knowledge of your history, click on the
Terminology link. Who cares about the details from a conman? We see
Trice running another scam, no need to look further.
And as Rook House has chronicled, here's an incomplete list of your
scams.
--He lied about raising 15 million dollars for a Fischer Gothic Chess
Match.
-- He claimed to write the world champion checkers program, but shows
no proof of this.
-- He claimed that Donald Trump wanted to buy the patent for "Gothic
Chess" from him, but he wouldn't sell (although he's declared
bankruptcy), even when being offered a 7 figure sum.
-- He tried to scam the entire chess world and completely disrespected
Bobby Fischer with his "My 61 Memorable Games" scam, as confirmed by
Cathy Purdy, Frank Camaratta, Bruce Towell, Dan Heisman and myself.
-- After getting caught red-handed (the evidence is overwhelming) with
his "My 61 Memorable Games" scam, you try to pin it on me, and that's
one of the two counts of my $21.2M lawsuit against you.
-- He created several aliases (Scarlet Rose, Victor Rose, etc.),
posted lies to chess newsgroups with them, and even after he was
busted, continues to lie and deny that they were him.
-- Claims he was never married to cover some other lie that he told,
but then turned around on another site and is quoted as saying "I was
there with my wife Ellie" when referring to a trip to Paris.
-- He claims to be a 2200 rated player, but facts show that he's a
mid-1300 player. He lies about that until he can't lie any more, THEN
claims that the "Ed Trice" on USCF's rating site is not even really
him, it's his cousin, yet has a link to the rating site on his own
Wiki page that clearly shows that he's lying. He's too stupid to even
be a good liar.
-- He claims one day to be a British citizen, but then the very next
day (when it's convenient for his argument) hides behind the fact that
he's a U.S. citizen and has rights. Talk about lying so much that YOU
don't even know what the truth is anymore.
-- He claims to have pictures AND video from all of his Gothic chess
events that support the ridiculous attendance numbers that he lied
about, yet he refuses to produce any of these.
-- He claimed that Burt Rutan owned land on Mars and Mr. Rutan
personally denied these claims and has never heard of Trice
-- Makes trip to Iceland with Frank Camaratta, but never meets
Fischer. Supposedly goes to Iceland again by himself (with no
witnesses) and magically meets Fischer with nobody around to verify
this.
Who are all the people that were in attendance with your meeting with
Bobby Fischer? Names pal, we NEED names??
I'm very confident that Bobby Fischer would never have had a first
meeting alone with an obscure D player;
who had just lost his house in 2003,
filed for bankruptcy in 2004,
http://tinyurl.com/49rkog
and now shows up in Iceland in 2006 saying he's got $15M for a match
with Karpov. "Sure, Trice...where do I sign???"
And finally, still waiting for this answer:

I thought) you add more lies, but you never ever REFUTE with 3rd party
validations. And providing a link back to your own site is not a
refutation, but more lies in print.
<Ed Trice: Labate, You have never "served" me anything, you know it, I

FALSE, we have signed return receipts, which is adequate for a
company. Check with your lawyer, the service is good...or don't you
have a lawyer yet?? As you already know, my attorney is Alfred T.
Newell IV in Birmingham, the leading libel/defamation attorney in the
state.
If you don't have an attorney yet, then for the time being, I guess
you would be your own attorney. In that case, you may contact him
directly:

Alfred T. Newell IV, Attorney at Law

(866) 579-4709

Now, on another note:
You contacted me last August offering me the chance to get in on your
'My 61 Memorable Games' scam.
"you know it, I know it."

Why you choose to pin it on me, is the #1 reason I will not settle out
of court with you. I want to read your discoveries and hear your
deposition in person. I am looking forward to my day in court against
you. You can beat your chest all you want here, but my day in court is
nearing!!

I'll save you a great deal of effort.
I rescinded my US Citizenship in July of 2006 when the Fischer-Kaprov
match took shape and we accumulated over $20 million in pledged
European airing contracts should the event take place. I did so under
advice of my attorneys at Hodgson Russ LLC, who said any moneys I
receive as a US citizen could be in jeopardy otherwise.
It was a recalcitrant process to swear allegiance to the Crown, which
took a tremendous amount of effort to overcome the coddling request to
maintain dual citizenship. I did so as a single citizen of England,
and England only. I managed to complete the ordeal in a record timely
fashion. I own property in the West End of London, I've been 'on the

in every respect, an English citizen with a British Passport currently
on American soil.
I have not, as of yet, re-patriated myself.

He also now claims that his site was merely a "beta template" to sell
to realtors. LOL Now about his site legallyownlandsonmars.com. If he
was not trying to sell property on Mars then why is the paypal link
active to take payments? He was caught "Red-handed" trying to sell the
red dirt of Mars.

Oh, ok. FIFTEEN MILLION. Not fourteen million. Thanks for clearing
that up. Becuase I wouldn't believe the claim if it was only 14
million. But 15 million is believable, at least to me, despite the
fact that that is more than Tiger Woods wins in a tournament, in a
game that people actually give a crap about. But, hey, people either
don't believe or don't take seriously anything that is not mind-
blowing. And, sadly, most people didn't believe that sponsors had
comitted 15 million dollars for a game of chess - strike that - not
even chess, but a game something like chess. Now, if the prize money
was 15 BILLION, maybe you'd have something!!!

Thats correct. He did say 15 million. So he lied about having 15

It is absolutely not true that Ed Trice said that he had raised 14
million for the Fischer-Karpov Match.

He personally told me that he had raised 15 million for that match.

Thanks Rob, consider it added to the list. Below is an updated E.T.
Wall of Lies:

-- He lied about raising 14 million dollars for a Fischer Gothic Chess
Match.

-- He claimed to write the world champion checkers program, but shows
no proof of this.

-- He claimed that Donald Trump wanted to buy the patent for "Gothic
Chess" from him, but he wouldn't sell (although he's declared
bankruptcy), even when being offered a 7 figure sum. Yeah, I'm sure
that happened.

-- He tried to scam the entire chess world and completely disrespected
Bobby Fischer with his fake "My 61 Memorable Games" hoax.

-- After getting caught red-handed (the evidence is overwhelming) with
his "My 61 Memorable Games" hoax, he tries to blame it on someone
else. Completely pathetic.

-- He created several aliases (Scarlet Rose, Victor Rose, etc.),
posted lies to chess newsgroups with them, and even after he was
busted, continues to lie and deny that they were him.

-- Claims he was never married to cover some other lie that he told,
but then turned around on another site and is quoted as saying "I was
there with my wife Ellie" when referring to a trip to Paris.

-- He claims to be a 2200 rated player, but facts show that he's a
mid-1300 player. He lies about that until he can't lie any more, THEN
claims that the "Ed Trice" on USCF's rating site is not even really
him, it's his cousin, yet has a link to the rating site on his own
Wiki page that clearly shows that he's lying. He's too stupid to
even be a good liar.

-- Makes trip to Iceland with Frank Camaratta, but never meets
Fischer. Supposedly goes to Iceland again by himself (with no
witnesses) and magically meets Fischer with nobody around to verify
this. Very convenient.

-- He claims one day to be a British citizen, but then the very next
day (when it's convenient for his argument) hides behind the fact that
he's a U.S. citizen and has rights. Talk about lying so much that
YOU don't even know what the truth is anymore.

-- He claims to have pictures AND video from all of his Gothic chess
events that support the ridiculous attendance numbers that he lied
about, yet he refuses to produce any of these.

-- He claimed that Burt Rutan owned land on Mars and Mr. Rutan
personally denied these claims and has never heard of Trice


I'm sure there is much more to come.

I disagree. It is starting to appear that all of the claims Ed Trice
has been making about himself are false or at least questionable. He
almost certainly did not write the world champion checkers program. He
did not raise $14 million for a Fischer Gothic Chess Match. He almost
certainly did perpetuate the "My 61 Memorable Games" Hoax.

He creates fake personalities who support him on the Internet such as
"Scarlet Rose", "Victor Rose" and "ChessHistorian".

I would favor deleting his entire Wikipedia biography and then
rebuilding it from verifiable sources.

From: Ed Trice
Subject: Re: I met the Great Ed Trice

Dear Sam,

I will address your points in turn.

1. "He almost certainly did not write the world champion checker
program. "

The NAME of the program was "World Championship Checkers", or "WCC" fo
short. If you look at link to Circumflex Software from May 22, 1997, yo
will see this page:

http://web.archive.org/web/19970522045151/http://www.circumflex.com/

There is a button on that page to order the Macintosh version or the P
version of this program.

http://web.archive.org/web/19970522045349/www.circumflex.com/WCC.html

WCC was the 4th generation of "Cornell Checkers", a program writte
with a 32-bit DOS extender running under 16-bit Windows. It was
COMPLETE RE-WRITE of the older program. I wrote the Macintosh version
The PC version was written by Gil Dodgen.

As I was able to beat the older version, Gil asked for my help i
creating a new evaluation function. I did that, and also changed quit
a bit to get it to work on the Mac.

NOTE: This is not a claim that I wrote THE program that was the WORL
CHAMPION of checkers. That distinction belonged to Chinook.

You are confusing the NAME of the program with a TITLE, and that i
your mistake.

2. "He did not raise $14 million for a Fischer Gothic Chess Match."

That is 100% correct. I raised $15,000,000 over a period of 2 years
This was even stated in "New in Chess" issue 28, or whatever the numbe
was, that was the "Bobby Fischer Special Edition" that came out aroun
March 2008. In it, Fridrik Olafsson confirms that I visited him i
Iceland and presented the documentation of the prize fund. Check you
sources. It is the same issue that Labate used to claim I never me
Fischer.

You can also listen to my interview on the Dan Heisman show here:

http://www.GothicChess.com/radio.wma

3. He almost certainly did perpetuate the "My 61 Memorable Games
Hoax.

BULL_s_h_i_t.

4. He creates fake personalities who support him on the Internet suc
as
"Scarlet Rose", "Victor Rose" and "ChessHistorian".

Again, completely wrong. "Scarlet Rose" is a woman who lives in Wyomin
that plays on the BrainKing.com website where I used to play. He
profile is here:

http://brainking.com/en/Profile?u=2925

Just to clarify; does that mean there was $15 million interested dollars -
pending match arrangements there being a total of $15 million which had been
canvassed, but not exactly commited?

Though, is it exactly true to say that although you visited Iceland you did

I must admit that I played horribly at this World Open. I have an
excuse. I had not played since the August 2007 US Open in Cherry Hill.
Perhaps this explains why on the first day of play in which I had to
play five games at game in 45, I made terrible blunders in four of the
games. In each game I had winning or nearly winning positions at the
time I made the blunder.

Next time, I should warm up by playing in some blitz or minor
tournaments before entering the World Open.

I played myself into form to some extent. I entered the Game in 10
tournament and actually gained rating points. Also in the main event
I won two of my last three games.

I expect that my rating will hit my floor of 1900 for the first time
in my life, after this 3-6 exceptionally poor performance when all of
my opponents were rated lower than me.

The only interesting point was that I played three of our top
scholastic players. I played Benjamin Moon who is our number 12 rated
player age 10, Christopher Wu, who is our number 4 rated player aged 9
and Miles Hinson who is not on the top lists apparently due to an
oversight because he is a 1829 rated player and he seems to be 11 or
12 years old.

The only even mildly interesting game was against Christopher Wu.
There are five players named Christopher Wu in the USCF rating lists.
This is the one from New Jersey.

I played my extremely solid Damiano's Defense, which goes 1. e4 e5 2.
Nf3 f6!!! Naturally, after 3. Nxe5 Black just plays 3. ... fxe5 and
Black is a knight ahead.

However, my 9-year-old opponent played what I call the Damiano's
Defense Declined by playing 3. Bc4. Since he is just a kid I wonder if
he even knew about 3. Nxe5.

He was using a Monroi. Steve Immitt asked whether this game was being
broadcast on the Internet. Does anybody know the answer to this
question?

On the bus back to New York, Grandmaster Yudasin demonstrated why he
is a much stronger player than I am by pointing out an easy win that
both of us had missed over the board. Remember that Yudasin was
commenting blindfolded while riding on a Chinese bus on an opening he
had never seen before, since Yudasin obviously does not spend much
time studying the Damiano's Defense.

I am wondering how many readers here can point out what Yudasin saw
but both players in the game missed. HINT: It involves a knight
sacrifice.

Anyway, the game developed into something similar to a Philador's
Defense. In the Philador's Defense, Black gets a cramped and
unpleasant position and he just hangs on and waits and hopes that
White does something foolish.

That is what I did and that is what finally happened. I found a nice
little combination at the end which my opponent did not see coming.
Even if he had seen it, I would have had an equal and playable game.

Good catch. The comments by Ed Trice on chessgames.com prove that the
Ed Trice who is rated 1342 by the USCF is the same person as the Ed
Trice who claims to be a master with a 2227 rating.

http://www.uschess.org/msa/MbrDtlTnmtHst.php?12495284

The game shown is also clearly a game by a 1342 strength player.

Somebody should inform Wikipedia about this. I am banned from
Wikipedia in retaliation for filing the Sloan vs. Truong "Fake Sam
Sloan" lawsuit in federal court.

Sam,

Dan Heisman mentioned your name to me and that you had some question
for me. I looked up your board from the U2000 section. At one point i
time, late in your last game, you had walked away from your board an
were chatting with someone in the adjacent "buffer" room. I politel
informed you that you had less than 18 minutes left on your clock an
it was now running.

Clearly you should remember this.

After your game was over, I introduced myself to you again, and wante
to know what questions you had for me. I answered all of the question
you asked me.

Jerry Hanken only had one glib remark to make from his motorize
wheelchair before he excused himself to the rest room.

You mentioned "many of the claims" on my page are not verifiable.

Would you care to enumerate them at present so that I can understan
what you consider "many", and what you consider "not verifiable?"

Thanks.
