Subject: who is clean and who is not
|
Monday January 21st, 2008 ----------------------------- Chessville received a letter from Susan Polgar on Sunday morning, Jan 20, 2008, stating the USCF's process of inquiry, of herself, and Paul Truong's complicity with the terms of the inquiry, and to correct a "blatant misrepresentation" by Bill Goichberg. She ended by restating the offer:- "We give consent to the board and their attorneys to publish all information they have about us relating to this case. Everyone can then decide who is clean and who is not. Why not let the USCF members decide what the facts are? " The URL for the full statement is at http://www.chessville.com/Editorials/AlekhinesParrot/TheParrotSquaawks2008.htm which extracts from Alekhine's Parrot, which also contains her earlier statement on the same topic http://www.chessville.com/Editorials/AlekhinesParrot/Index.htm She very clearly states, quoting Paul Truong: "Do I know who did it? Absolutely no. Did I have anything to do with it? Absolutely no." Of which she comments: Can this be any clearer? If they wanted it in a different format, they should have officially informed or explained it to us. ---- Phil Innes for Chessville.

I've tried to point Sanny to the resources on the Web where such things are ironed out in some detail. Things like, oh, tactical search extensions and the like-- but he apparently can't find them or else he is unwilling to just start over and do it the right way; after all, his programmers have already plowed a lot of time and effort into doing it all wrong! The clearest example of this problem may well be the draw issue; Sanny's program was originally written without any knowledge of draws, and even today there remain the remnants of this problem, here and there. > > This guy is a bit fruit-loopy; I'll wager the > > Normal level would demolish a 100-man team > > of USCF 1400s by a wide gin, in spite of > > there being no time restriction on the humans, > > while the program now generally follows its set > > limit which, for it, is very restrictive. > The thing is: it has tactical abilities which might go beyond a 1400. > But it has severe limitations a 1400 usually doesn't have. From your > reks you made here in the past, I read that you got problems if your > attack didn't go through and GC was left with the upper hand. My main problem was where I played recklessly, as in my game as White in Larsen's Attack, and I overlooked some tactical shot which decided the game, from which there was no coming back. > But a 1400 > wouldn't play this way against it. A 1400 has some basic idea how to > develop, where to put the pieces etc. GC has nearly no idea about such > things. I disagree. While many 1400s are familiar with where the pieces go and in what specific order, *if* you follow along some traditional path, there always seems to be a point in my games where the typical 1400 player reveals a computeresque ignorance of some routine chess knowledge-- hence the 1400 rating. The most recent example I can recall was a line where the entire plan for White was jilted, in favor of a tactical battle which I won mainly because my King was castled, his not, and we were well into the middle-game at the time! The 1400-type neglected normal development, left his King in the center too long, and also seemed to allow his emotions to get involved; by which I mean that he was angry at me for "daring" to castle on the Queen-side, which was not the "normal", book plan for Black. He actually felt insulted at this, whereas my intentions were merely to maximize my King safety, and of course the Black King is not safe in the "normal" lines, but rather, a favorite target-- which is one reason the line is popular for White. > The question is: could GC beat a player which is not overly > ambitious of beating the shit out of the program right from the start? I don't think the approach would be the issue here; IMO, the issue would be that when the position opened up, the typical 1400 players would be over-matched in the tactical department. Both sides would likely make silly strategic mistakes, but the problem with humans is that our tactical mistakes tend to be really BIG ones, decisive ones. > I must admit, that we might talk about apples and oranges, when talking > about "1400".

It's very possible that the average "German" player is stronger than the average American. Take Wilhelm Stenitz, for instance; he hopped a boat to America, und violla: instant U.S. Champion. His successor, Em. Lasker, ranked as the highest-rated player *ever* for quite some time, using retroactively-calculated numbers. Ignoring regional variances for a moment, the typical American 1400 player is no chess genius. I play them all the time, and occasionally watch their games with one another; many of these games are easy wins, but "somehow" result in draws, or else they are easy draws, but result in wins. Really, these guys all need to be taking lessons from me, so they can get to 1500 or so... . -- help bot

What you are missing can not be corrected by explaining it in a few sentences. Even the basic positional rules are not as simple as "develop knight first" or something like that. An average talented player needs several years before he reaches some decent level of play, before he gets an idea what to do and what not in the different phases of the game. > > Where to put Piece. This can simply not be answered in a general and static way. It depends on the positions of the pawns but also on dynamic factors. And it wouldn't help much, if I would tell you from a chess players perspective what to do and what not - programs are based on a very different approach. Only from the result, the actual moves your program makes, I can tell it does something wrong. What exactly it is it should do differently internally, I do not know, because I don't know all those tricks and techniques chess programmers use to tell their programs to play sound moves. >> The basic problem with Sannys program: it >> doesn't know what to do when there is no immediate threat. > > What should it do when it has no immidiate threath?

Apparently, Sanny uses his own "identity" to test programs like Jester against the GetClub program, so "his" rating may be meaningless. It is true that having a rating well over 1000 is *not* indicative of losing to any of GetClub's levels, which are by and large, well under 1000. Anybody know how to "dumb-down" one of the commercial chess programs while still knowing its USCF-equivalent rating, for testing purposes? I've got one that is adjustable, but it won't go low enough for a fair fight-- maybe my notebook computer is just too fast for GC? I've seen plenty of complaints where players have reported that some of these programs don't accurately reflect true rating strengths. All I know is that if I remove Fritz' Queen at the start of a game, it seems to equalize things a bit.. . -- help bot

Why? If the program is so very weak, would it not make more sense to give it every possible chance? (Just giving him a hard time.) I generally take White against the lower levels, intending to play a casual style game, as in (very slow) blitz chess. For when I have been requested to test the program's latest "improvements", I will normally take Black against the middle or higher levels, trying to level the field just a bit. I find it can take somewhat longer to win as Black, for instance, because when the GC program does its p-h3 thing, I merely gain back the tempo I was behind from the very start. -- help bot

This guy is a bit fruit-loopy; I'll wager the Normal level would demolish a 100-man team of USCF 1400s by a wide gin, in spite of there being no time restriction on the humans, while the program now generally follows its set limit which, for it, is very restrictive. Recently, I did play *one* 1400-type who was stronger, but then, he decimated all the other players in the field, so obviously his rating was not accurate, relative to others. > And by the way: you finally should teach your program: if there is only > one legal move: make it. There are many such issues like this one. I see no way in which making the "only" legal move could hurt the program's results, so it would be seen as an obvious improvement by the users. However, in view of GC's history, it is far from clear that the program "knows" there was but one legal move, even *after* it has played the move! My ballpark estimate (I certainly can't claim any particular accuracy here) for the Normal level would be to add Sanny's over-optimistic number to Mr. Clallenberg's, then divide the result by two. I would say they fairly represent the two extremes of the lunatic fringe. Another way to look at this would be to try and compare the move times taken by the human opponents with the times taken by the Normal level. I expect that some, if not all, of the braggers here were struggling to move as fast as they talk. OTOH, we cannot be certain that all of them were not themselves using a commercial chess program, in which case a few seconds per move would be more than adequate to the task at hand. In fact, I think a few program could tackle Sanny's program while "thinking", say, one second per move (or even less). This is mainly the dread result of "the boy who cried: wolf!"; many moons ago, I tried to warn Sanny that if he persisted in overstating his program's strength and "improvements", the result would be that no one would believe anything he said. Time has passed, and it is time to pay the (pied) piper (of Hamilin). Now, it would almost require a miracle before any of these injured townspeople would admit to seeing a small fox at GetClub, or even a rat terrier... . -- help bot

The question is: whicht style do you use against it? I can see, that if you jump right at the program, it might be able to defend itself. But I played a quite slow setup and switched gear only after a mistake on its side (which didn't take too long), and even then I didn't try to finish it as fast as possible. The basic problem with Sannys program: it doesn't know what to do when there is no immediate threat. In those situations it tends to make silly moves and creates severe positional weaknesses. It might have gained some tactical abilities over the time, but has still no knowledge about positional factors. Also something under which GC clearly suffers: horizon problem. In my game it went into a situation, where it could prolong immediate loss of material for a while by attacking my queen. So, Sanny obviously hasn't implemented the increase of search depth in forced variations. This is a severe weak spot of the program. > > This guy is a bit fruit-loopy; I'll wager the > Normal level would demolish a 100-man team > of USCF 1400s by a wide gin, in spite of > there being no time restriction on the humans, > while the program now generally follows its set > limit which, for it, is very restrictive.

But nevertheless, for me it's not a bid deal, whether normal level has 1400 or 1600 - fact is, a strong player shouldn't have a big problem beating it. Greetings, Ralf

28.01.2008 18:43, Sanny: > I am not a chess player. I have never played any tournaments. I play > Chess only sometimes. I am beaten by GetClub Beginner Level Every > time. So I have a rating of arround 1100-1200. I do not understand > much in Chess only that pieces should be saved. And that's exactly my point. To you those numbers "1400", "1800", "2000" have no meaning. Even the 1100 you provide yourself is a quite optimistic guess. You haven't the slightest idea which strength to connect with those levels, you just make them up when you assign them to your program. In my experience, playes who never played tournament players have no clue how strong an average club player is. They beat consistently all friends and family members and think they have some strength. But when they walk into a chess club, they get beaten easily even by the weaker players there - much to their amazement. To give you a rough idea: a player around 1500, 1600 is not particularly strong - but he would massacre you on the board with ease. And such a 1500, 1600 wouldn't stand a 2000 player (a level, where I would say, we might start talking about strong players). And a 2000 player would be quite happy to get 1 point out of 10 games against an International Master. And such an IM is lost against current commercial chess programs on decent hardware. If you really want to get a rough idea about how strong your program is: get yourself a cheap copy of Fritz. It has a function to evaluate the strength of its component. It is a very rough estimate - but it might give you an idea. If you are not able to even get hands on an old Fritz 7 or 8 - there are plenty of free programs around on the internet. Not all of them are as strong as Fritz and Rybka, made by amateurs just for fun. Look for those programs, download them and let them play against yours - and see what happens. Only then you will be able to come up with some "numbers" for the level of your program. > What are things that need to be seen other than material advantage? Positional play. That you got an idea where to put the pieces and what to do when there is no immediate threat. To come up with long range ideas, which you can't "calculate", but where you know, that in the long run, it will lead to something. Chess programmers over the years came up with ways to circumvent the limitations of the limited chess knowledge they can provide their programs. They look at the mobility of the pieces, where on the board they are located and so on, and they searched for ways to weigh those factors against each other to reach strong levels. If you want to learn about this, you have to study the literature and look at Open Source programs. You will not be able to "detect" it by yourself, just based on some hints you might get in this forum. Greetings, Ralf

These people are either of these. 1. They have never Played the Game at GetClub. For them Just play and see for yourself. Play Chess at: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html 2. You may have played 6 months back when it was really weak. Come on Now getclub Chess plays better than ever. Now it is even difficult to beat the Beginner Level. Only those taking help from Computer are able to win the Higher Levels. 3. GetClub Chess plays very Slow. Now, Beginner Level Makes Moves in just 6-10 seconds. No more waiting. Still the moves are very strong. If you are really tough player then you should try Easy & Normal Levels. Play Chess at:: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html I think Normal Level is good enough for most of the Strong players. Still for Grand Masters we have Master Level & Advance Levels. Which think for 5-10 min / Move giving extremely difficult game to win. But for Most Players Beginner Level is Sufficient which makes moves in 6-10 seconds. It is very difficult to get higher rating now. I see each players rating is going down as the Levels are playing much stronger than ever. Only those players who have left playing when it used to play weak are at the Top. Now it is very difficult even to mantain your rating from falling. However only Help Bot Manages to get Higher Ratings. That prooves Help Bot is really good players. If you think you are better than him then beat his Scores. But without help from COMPUTERS.

"If" you can do this and "if" you can do that, then do it, my boy; don't talk about doing it! The critics have nothing whatever to go by apart from the public records of the sinister organization known as the USCF; and by those records, you seem to be struggling well below the nearly-an-IM level of late. It is obvious that playing in person negates any advantages a player might have from his computer at home, and subjects him to cruel rules of time-management and so forth. OTOH, everybody is on a level field, which makes for decent comparisons. > of course, you are not really interested in this > stuff at all, right? you didn't join in the rgcp team I was invited by Rob "da robber" Mitchell to join some peculiarly ratpackish teams, and declined. Note well that any foolish notions regarding securing a "master" -- relying upon imaginary syntax anal-thingies -- would be a grave error. Look over some of my GetClub games and get the real picture; I think it would probably let people down if I signed up under false pretenses, then played like the fish I am... . OK, here's my best offer: I will play Slam Stoned, but not for any huge sum of money (because I believe many people cheat under such circumstances). If a Mr. Slater type wants to double the prize money, I'll play for a huge sum. But know this: I've been, um, training sort of, against computers (and I don't mean just GetClub!). Mr. Sloan's funky chess openings do not impress me in the least; I've seen worse at my local club, and yes, at GetClubbed as well. I'm a stupid-chess openings specialist. -- help bot

And so you reduce yourself to what no real chess players here experience as any thing common to their experience, and instead, you use it to be sceptical. Let's face it Greg, you can only get better if you play.

Ker-ist! Who is it but you non-playing commentators who ever makes a big deal about ratings? If you were a player you would understand that it is always relative to someone else, and those people are always better.

Ah... Let us end this here, since you have been called by all sorts of people to put up or shut up. I think by your own continued words, we can understand how you are, and why you write at all ;) meanwhile, this thread is not about you or Brennan, its about USCF coming clean or not. That you both pervert this to your own ideas and resentments is also a perversion - your perverison. Everyone has met people like you full of opinions on others, but who don't risk anything themselves. There is substantially more at stake here than your shy engagement with events, paranoia, and resentment of anyone who knows stuff. Get it yet Greg?

Having already confounded the issue in his mind by inserting the word 'permission', Brennan now insists on what something 'must mean'. How he should twice evolve his commentary from the statement before it, and why any imperative 'must', is best known to himself. If he has comprehension problems he should consult a philologist or stick to reading Winnie the Pooh. > There is no new 'final response' by >> Polgar, but instead a reiteration of what she predicted would happen - >> with >> perhaps some additional emphasis indicated after the board's response, on >> the consequences of declining to open up. > > In other words, the latest final response, with empty threats. That again is a paraphrase so obtuse that it almost defies belief anyone could write it. If what Polgar and Truong are saying is 'open it up' and others decline to do so, which was their own prediction, they merely refer to the /content/ they made before. What is 'final' about it seems to me to be how far they are willing to go to cooperate with anyone - and in fact, what or who limits any other possible cooperation. Quite obviously, if USCF say that materials may not be vented, based on their legal advice, neither can anyone else access the same materials. >> My mailbag is already full of GM commentary [with an IM here and there] > > Real titled players, or phony ones like yourself? How would you know? You don't write about chess - 99% percent of your posts here and elsewhere are about trashing people. More trash about more people than the FSS ever did. Maybe 5 times as much? 10 times? How you can possibly pretend any interest in caring about cyber-abuse or chess, is again, a subject known only to yourself, and the reverend re-mailer, plus one or two other people spinning for a living, instead on any attention to subject matter.

Indeed - this is a truism from our corn-fed, yet after 700 games against all-comers this past year, I don't see no Sloans showing up to do the same. Maybe the commons is not his scene. Besides, I have merrily slaughtered anyone less than 2100. Perhaps chess is more to do with doing than with whatever the kibitzers 'are thinking', and certainly are saying? There seems to be a noted proclivity in ability :: lack of chess commentary. If any of these boys were ever interested in chess - and here as an aside to take offence at Larry Parr; what is it he thinks cornbot was an aspirant to? A class 'c' player ain't exactly any contendah! And since on the same scale as myself cornbot managed something like 1500, compared with 2300, but plays Sanny's engine at genius level, and beats it ... snore :))) What do all these protestations mean? Clearly cornbot needs to read more to even overcome the errors of other writers, which he often rightly senses are there, but cannot adequately address from his own wit, nor really correct them [except for Fischer's bad play, of course], but more significant is his absense from actual chess commentary - if he were actually a contendah! he might have a go, no? But in all these years, he don't. So he probably is a contendah to C, maybe even B class. But he don't actually do neither. And here he hob-nobs with an even greater chessic numbskull, the resident Eyeore named Brennan. What a sad cast they throw together: As if a general misanthropy as result from [indicated, no more] disspointment about one's own prospects in chess, should be piled on willful ignorance and crass stupidity, as result of being a fat bastard. <that is the name volunteered in another ng to the person by a certain literat, who, like me, suggests that work reduces fat, and intellectual work reduces fatousness >.

The culprit is the usual lack of understanding by Brennan, who is ever confused by multi-phrase sentences. Nowhere did I use the word 'permission', and whether its "warning, threat or permission", all three or none, seems to be simply the terms used by those who are so very /anxious/ about this issue. There are certainly other ways to characterise the issue. The sense of the material I wrote is to first allow it a big public view, and then to make commentary on it. There is no new 'final response' by Polgar, but instead a reiteration of what she predicted would happen - with perhaps some additional emphasis indicated after the board's response, on the consequences of declining to open up. My mailbag is already full of GM commentary [with an IM here and there] all, so far, supportive of Polgar. Now all chess players can also comment on what seems right and fair to them. After digesting the exchange sufficiently, I feel assured we will be entertained by more than a bunch of hot-heads here, by people who /do/ want to see the whole picture before committing to judgment. That was, and remains, the issue. Phil Innes

Greg, have a bash at writing about Corus if you are capable of it, instead of cutting what i wrote to you and mouthing off about some idiotic and utterly indifferent program spammer any master could defeat [given 3 days] with their eyes closed. > It seems that most days, while I am busy > recounting my brilliant successes against > the Beginner level, all nearly-IMnes does is > bash Neil Brennan and dismiss every report > regarding the Fake Sam Sloan; what a > narrow repertoire... . Chess itself is narrow - those who shout abuse about it for 6 years straight is passed over with no comment? If Greg Kennedy wanted to really address anything, then he would address his own attitude, but he cuts that. I suppose Kennedy's noise is simply a different form than other non-chess writers achieve here. It does have the same motive though, sour resentment of any achievement. If the gent wishes to be taken seriously, he will not behave as the lowest low-life here, with all its cowardly symptoms. If he has nothing to say at all to other people that he wishes to actually discuss with them, perhaps he will shut his mouth? That is his choice. I want to talk chess, not regret those who do.

I think that's Skippy Repa you are thinking of: ninety percent straight, ten percent bi- curious. --------------------------------------------------- Writers who claim to know something about Paul Truong have opined that if the SP/PT duo are involved, it must be PT who is guilty, not SP. But what if these "experts" are wrong? What if he is covering for his wife? Then a whole lot of accusations would turn out to have missed the k. Who can blame a man for attempting to protect his wife, for not willingly handing over evidence against her? As for me, I find the Susan Polgar Web site to be clear evidence of heinous atrocities against Truth and Justice, so accusations against the owner(s) and creator(s) of that site are consistent with what I've seen with my own eyes. Hence, I am a bit lacking in sympathy, or interest in defending the low scum responsible-- whoever it might be. Not to say I want to hang an innocent man... far from it. I've seen what can happen to those who make that mistake (gulp); a tall rider comes looking for you, to take his revenge... someone who looks just like Clint Eastwood-- without the beer-belly. Even Alan Hale could not escape... . But I think it is a fair question to ask nearly-Innes why he kneejerk-defends these two, and like other ratpackers, ignores any and all "evidence" which might implicate either of them. It is certainly peculiar, in view of the many attacks on others which had no real evidence, and which were supported by the evil ratpack. The about-face regarding "innocent until proved guilty" sticks out like a doubled h-pawn. It indicates that this is no matter of principle, but rather, one of personal bias. And what does that say about the real-world value of nearly-Innes' opinions on this matter? -- help bot

And what does that say about > the real-world value of nearly-Innes' > opinions on this matter? those are 4 and 5. To take them in order; Greg Kennedy who can't own his name thinks what's fair is to lessen the names of those who can. Proabably, from a psychological basis, we could stop there. But the 2nd is to call 'rat-packers' everyone who wants to write about chess in the open - or even just want to write about chess! Then there is all "evidence" which Kennedy suggests I ignore - but it has it exactly the wrong way around - and the challenge /is/ to look at all evidence, instead of one-sided accusations. That challenge now lies on USCF's doormat. Kennedy continues to argue that all sides having to open up is personal not a matter of principle. Shall we pass by this one quickly, lest he commits 2 logical fallicies, one after the other? And finally, what it says about me is that I see one secretive organisation operating as a non-profit, pro bono caissa, and because I write about chess, and none of the anti-Truong crowd do that, then it is as natural as day that I want chess to be an open topic for everyone. --- I merely assume that all the people who do not want USCF to open up - can't even seem to notice that this is, and always has been, the issue - are interested in something other than chess. The list of people who encourage such openess seems to include the strongest players in the USA, now and then, rather than any saucerful of secrets of which no good can ever come. There is nothing else to say except to make this point, and to ask people to admit it, or do their own thing for their own reasons: that the USCF should not operate in camera, and that it is the considered opinion of very many people indeed, that most of its 'troubles' would simply not exist if it did so.

I did not want to be caught up in this argument, which I feel is a sideshow. However, since Phil brought me up, I feel I must say my piece. The accusation against the USCF board is that they used a pretext to request that Paul Truong step down. This simply does not interest me at all as a potential scandal. It distracts from the real issue - did Paul Truong impersonate people in the newsgroups, and then try to lie about it and cover it up? If I had to guess, I would venture that at some point the board had enough of the foot-dragging tactics of Truong, and made the request because of it, while Truong could make the argument that he was cooperating and was going to produce them. No crime either side as far as that goes. Truong could defuse the resignation call much more effectively by simply producing legally binding testimony of innocence, and giving legal access to his internet records. If he is innocent, he should be eager to provide both of these, rather than having to negotiate his way to doing so. The longer he waits on doing these, the more we deserve to know why it is taking so long (and the more suspicious his actions will seem). I would prefer this to be my final word on opening the email records between the board, since it is not an issue I want to see continue distracting from the main question. I would enjoy looking at such records, but mostly as a form of entertainment on the order of finding out what new lows Brittney Spears has reached.

I haven't researched this in a while, so that could be true. The last I heard, which was at least a year ago (and bear in mind this is pretty oversimplified) it worked something like this: AOL user requests a page on your site. Proxy checks to see if it has a recent enough cache of the page. If yes: display from cache. If no: Any proxy from the farm that doesn't have anything better to do at the moment goes and gets the page. All these proxies have their own IPs (and hostnames) so Fake Sam in Oklahoma might use the one that Fake Ray from Maine used, seconds apart. Conversely, Fake Ray may have got all the proxies in the farm to make a request for him at one point or another, so may have posted with 9 million (or however many hosts there are) different IPs/hostnames. What you're describing is unlikely to not be the same user, considering the number of users in the pool and the narrow timeframe, but not impossible. Circumstantial evidence.

STATE OF PLAY While to-date I, Phil Innes, and Larry Parr, have both encouraged openning up this issue so that all can see 'who is clean and who is not', and especially that USCF members can make their own assessment, and to let the chips lie where they may... It is fascinating to read that this is partisanship! Though how Lary Parr and I can possibly be on the same team for this issue is unexplained [though surely someone will try now!] In fact, this issue will not even be contested or resolved by either of us - since the intent is for the members to do that. Equally fascinating is who does /not want/ the issue opened up. At least 4 recent commentators here, Brennan + 3 single-issue posters; the not-a-Christian 'Reverend' Walker, Litigious-Laugherty, and Mike '48' Murray, cannot bring themselves to support members coming to their own conclusions by assessing all sides of the issue. Who else can't manage to say much who is a 'frequent-contributor' to this subject? Well, there is ChessCafe's columnist Jerry Spinrad. But the main absentee from openness of communcation is Sam Sloan himself. SLOAN'S OPTIONS After an entire year of preaching to us that openning up the secretive can of worms at USCF was his own dedicated mission, where is Sam Sloan now, when it comes right down to it? And finally, the last party not to aver allowing the members to make up their own minds, rather than whatever is currently going on in the secret recessess, is USCF itself. In 3 days the editorial deadline is reached, and if USCF decline to accept either making their own statement, or to accept the offer to open the secret doors, then I will be obliged to say so. To respond or not is entirely USCF's own business, but it does have consequences:- REASONABLE DOUBT Since this is a very specific instance of official secrecy then the speculatory boot -the reasonable doubt- will be on the other foot, no? Since what business /should/ need be secret in a public non-profit which exists to promote and administer chess in the USA [excepting personnel records, and such mandated federal confidential matters]. The biggest stimulus to affronting 'official secrets' would be if Sam Sloan should support Susan Polgar on this issue, by also declaring that the light should shine on all this matter - as he himself said most consistently of all for an entire year - and indeed, who could possibly object then?

You shouldn't snip the entirety of other people's posts then, should you Murray? The fact that Kane does the same does allow you to complain though, so maybe continue? In the meantime what is very funny to me, is the State of Play - with all those who have /demanded/ information now shutting up when the offer to throw the doors open, and the chips fall where they may, should be made. Its not an offer in response to anything here, but so that members can decide for themselves. With 36 hours to go until USCF's response window is closed, we will all see if anything is yet forthcoming. After that, the boot will truly be on the other foot, and we shall have some fun!

Sometimes I wonder if Innes is stark raving mad. My response included his entire post. I top-posted my reply in order to leave his response contiguous. It's there.

AFAIK, Polgar's "offer" was a showboat ploy, designed only to distract and create FUD. She didn't offer to make available the items demanded by the USCF's attorneys, namely the ISP records and Truong's formal denial of FSS involvement. Instead, she offers to publicize a whole raft of extraneous material, much of it not pertinent to the FSS case, much of it related to apparently confidential business and personnel matters involving third parties. The offer seems merely a publicity stunt. If she knows of material that would exonerate PT, she could point it out to their attorney, who would find appropriate legal ways to pry it loose. Couple analogies to cast this publicity stunt in the proper light: (1) An employee is being disciplined for misuse of company time via private e-mails, which he's encrypted. Offers to decrypt the material for inspection if the company will release for his inspection ALL of its emails in the same time period. (2) A kid, suspected of some improper activity which his parents believe he's described in his diary, offers to reveal his diary if the parents will reveal theirs. If P Innes were really taken in by this ploy, he's more gullible than even his posting history would.... hmmmm.... well, OK, I guess it's not surprising that he was taken in.

Innes doesn't know who he is replying to: he argues with himself. He constantly tries to draw in bystanders, with shotgun insults. He resorts to ad hominen attacks and religious slurs without provocation. It is certainly /ugly behavior./ On the other hand, I think he has found a good fit for his /talents/. Polgar and Truong will probably reward him well, tossing him a bone or two, if he can keep everyone annoyed enough that they are diverted from serious investigation of the Polgar efforts at /obfuscation/. By the way, I am one of those that favors /STRONG/ transparency. Let us move right away to discovery and sworn testimony. Then the truth will become transparently clear. -- Cordially, Rev. J.D. Walker, MsD, U.C.

The only mystery in the present matter is why some people feel that Truong's posting thousands of obscene messages while posing as others should not involve consequences. That is the question you should answer yourself, but also pose to other members of the EB who, to date, have given Truong a free ride. By the way, I am not Mike Murray, though I find his contributions the best this newsgroup has to offer.

Perhaps they 'feel' so because to-date we have had a one-sided presentation. When the offer is to open it all up, then, David, who votes for how members will 'feel'?

Really? He is nothing other than a single issue scandal-merchant intent on only one thing - the same thing you are. So, I suppose that figures. Meanwhile in the above comment, I ask you to take the challenge - to find out who is clean or not. You, like others, noticeably duck the issue. ;) Phil Innes

If you are so sure, write to USCF and ask them to come clean! If people agree with you, then that's what you want, isn't it? And if they come to other conclusions, then your *facts* may not be so evident to others, and while you may still be correct, your *facts* may also be the same as your prejudices. > You repeatedly > have argued that he should suffer no consequences, and applaud > his and Susan's attempts to avoid them. That is a lie.In fact I wrote very clearly that if he was the perp then would go further than a censure motion from the board, I think he should resign.

ROFL - all the agit-prop people are now in a tail-spin! They can't figure this thing out. Susan Polgar said let is all out - she has nothing to hide - but let it /all/ out, not just the stuff we have read here. Now the agit-propers are caught in their own trap. Having demanded to know things - Susan Polgar says OK. But since USCF are holding /all/ the information, then unless the same people who want to know things demand it of USCF, it will be denied them. This is just a middle game, and there is plenty of play in it yet. For example, on Friday we will know if USCF want to keep their activities secret or not ;) Phil Innes >> Since you do not correct your first point above about what I believe, nor >> admit you want the members of USCF to know what goes on, nor any >> impartial justice ... >> >> ...

I am not asking you to comment on Trolgar's latest story. (Has it ever stayed the same two weeks running?) Those are not facts. I am asking for your comment on the facts. Why do you believe that Truong should not experience consequences for posting 1000s of obscene messages in others' names? Repeating irrelevant, non-factual arguments tells us that you don't believe Truong should experience consequences, but it doesn't tell us *why* you believe that. So I am asking.

From the Mottershead Report: a) From ch 2006 to July 2006, Truong posted to the USCF Forums almost exclusively from AOL addresses. These IP addresses were in the same small address blocks as were used on those dates by the Fake Sam Sloan identities to post to Usenet. b) In July 2006, Truong obtained a RoadRunner cable IP address, and he had this one address persistently assigned to him for over a year, until August 2007. During this period he was posting mainly from this RoadRunner address to the USCF Forums. While the Fake Sam Sloan identities continued to post mainly from AOL addresses, there were several occasions during this period when one or more of the FSS identities posted to Usenet from Truong's RoadRunner IP address. When Truong did post from an AOL address to the USCF Issues forum, the previous pattern held up, namely that Truong's AOL address was frequently from the same small block from which one of the Fake Sam Sloan identities had posted on that same day. c) In August 2007, Truong moved to Lubbock Texas to take up an appointment at Texas Tech. He obtained new, somewhat persistent IP addresses from Suddenlink, the cable broadband provider in Lubbock. During August and September 2007, he accessed the USCF Forums from two different Suddenlink IP addresses, one briefly and the other for the rest of that time. These two Suddenlink IP addresses were both used multiple times during that period by more than one of the Fake Sam Sloan identities to post to Usenet, while at the same time Truong was using the IP to post to the USCF Forums. In other words, when Truong moved to Lubbock, the Fake Sam Sloan identities also moved to Lubbock. Indeed they were all using the same Suddenlink IP address. d) On September 20, Truong went to Mexico City for the World Chess Championship. While there, Truong visited the USCF Forums from a Mexico City IP address. Contemporaneously, one of the FSS identities, the Fake Ray Gordon, posted to Usenet from the same Mexico City IP address. Both Truong and Fake Ray Gordon also had the same user agent string, from a Tablet PC 2.0 while in Mexico City. e) From September 16 onwards, when we can see what user agent string Truong's browser was sending to the USCF forums, it is identical to the user agent string being presented at the time by the Fake Sam Sloan identities on Usenet. When Truong switched to a Tablet PC 2.0 to go to Mexico City, the Fake Ray Gordon, one of the FSS identities, switched to the same Tablet PC 2.0 user agent string, at the same time switching to the same Mexico City IP address as Truong. The odds against all of these correlations resulting from chance are overwhelming, and the almost inescapable conclusion is either that Paul Truong and the person behind the Fake Sam Sloan posts are one and the same.

Question? What internet service provider does Paul use? AOL! Does AOL have a static or dynamic IP address assignment system? Dynamic! Dynamic IP Address - Comes from a pool of IP addresses and is assigned on the fly. Any available IP address can be used. Changes often. If you have looked at your Web stats lately and noticed an unbelievable number of AOL users have been to your site or are on your site right now it is because AOL users are assigned dynamic IP addresses. In a perfect world, each computer would have one static IP address assigned to it. Just like each person has one static name given at birth to officially identify them. However, just like people, a computer can change it's identity or take on different aliases on the fly. Internet users are almost always assigned a dynamic IP address by their Internet provider but they usually do not change as often as AOL users. That is because most Internet providers have nowhere near the customers as AOL. Instead of buying millions and millions of IP addresses, AOL re-uses from the same pool. It is not uncommon for an AOL user to get a different IP address for each page that they view. You may look at the "Whos On" in your stats and see that 25 AOL users are at your Website. In all likelihood you have one AOL user who has viewed 25 pages and received a different IP address for each page they viewed. A new tracking session is started every click (i.e. for each IP address) making it look like a separate user.

Greg. you retreat even more into your misanthropy - and I have been reading your cyncicism for 7 yeaqrs. If i 'had' Rybka I would be 3000 not 2300. You said so yourself. But you can't stand anyone to be better than you, so you forget you said so in your self-pitying messages here. If you can't write about chess at all, why not fuck off? I mean, you have a certain intelligence for things, a good bullshit detector [except your own] but are sour, so sour! If you really had something to offer, wouldn't you write it in chess terms? Not resentful of those who can? Your post have descended to self-pitying whines about what you speculate. They are become thought and fact free. Even previous allies distance themselves. But I think you are getting off on being a tragic case. No-body hates you, but your good mind for things is overwhelmed by dissapointments and you become a drag. Man to man, the targets of your arrows are cowardly aimed, lest you sign yourself, as other than Captain Cheapshot.

Nothing - he doesn't write about chess, he writes about people who write about chess. As for the Orwell 'quotation', that is merely the limit of his integrity, since even in chess groups people will have read that it is no quotation of Orwell at all - but liar-pants only writes trash, so he continues his invention. > My response included >> his entire post.

I was rarely > disappointed. Yeah - right! Will either of them be brave enough to say they want USCF to open up completely? Or is it their ludicrous choice after clamoring for 7 months to now admit they don't want to hear the whole truth? Just the bits which let them bitch? :) What an awful conundrum for one-issue Murray, and the resident abusenik! Poor lafferty has been laughed off several new newsgroups he has attempted 'conversation' with, and the not-a-Reverend /only/ observes the gutter [through a silk hanky, of course]. Spinrad has run off. Kane invents the opinions of others, unchallenged. And who else is there - O yeah! Sam Sloan, who is in some danger of appearing to be a year-long hypocrite because after promoting openess, he can't quite seem to notice this issue ;) >> >The fact that Kane does the same does allow you to complain though, so >> >maybe >> >continue? >> >> What does this mean? Seems gibberish. > > It is gibberish. Another 2-clause sentence stumps Brennan's comprehension. Truly, where do his talents begin? Kane invents other people's attitudes, and so his inventions cannot be seen as such he does not cite anything. Murray merely excises all views not congenial to his own perspective. The two writers enjoy this practice, since it allows them to say something - in fact to bitch - otherwise they would actually have to attend to facts, as such, not speculations, such as the rest of us must. >> >In the meantime what is very funny to me, is the State of Play - with >> >all >> >those who have /demanded/ information now shutting up when the offer to >> >throw the doors open, and the chips fall where they may, should be made. And what a silence! Everyone has run away from this statement of NO DEFENCE at all. Nothing to hide, says Polgar. >> AFAIK, Polgar's "offer" was a showboat ploy, designed only to distract >> and create FUD. What an absurd, even Orwellian series of propositions! Letting others decide for themselves is here become showboating and a distraction! What a truly imbecilic commentary. These writers ask everyone to Double-Think. Openess = Spin :)))) Some other wag recently accused me of being 'partisan' so that, by stating I wanted the members to make up their own minds; Openess with no proscriptive spin = Partisanship :))))0 No wonder abuseniks have to rubbish openess itself, since their vampiric nature cannot operate in the sunshine. If Susan Polgar does have something which would 'exhonerate' her husband, and USCF says she cannot reference it, where now, O conspirators! Let me pass on analogies since they are not necessary. If USCF have something to conceal they will pass on the offer to open up. They have less than 11 hours to make a response. That is the challenge that all people should understand. If this little ain't clear, then read the Parrot this weekend, since there are another 1,000 words which will contribute mightily to this issue by those accused people who make it all mighty clear. Very far from wishing to conceal anything, Susan Polgar keeps asking for it to be published in its /entirety/ which is rather more than ever appeared in this newsgroup. At the same time her husband wants to be interviewed to also address this matter directly, and /pursues me/ for the opportunity to come forth. Neither of them seem the least shy in discussing every single aspect of this. Therefore, by tommorrow morning, if nothing is heard from USCF, then the entire trend of this investigation will have swung around 180 degrees. This will dissapoint almost all writers to this subject in the newsgroup, since then, the very material they want will have been denied them by USCF itself. And will they wonder why, or ask USCF itself? I think we know which, don't we, children?

I have been pointed to one instance on the blog of the statement by Paul Truong. It bears close scrutiny for what it says and what it does not say. "Re: IP Addresses of Posters Postby PaulTruong on Wed Sep 26, 2007 8:36 pm I am also very disturbed by the latest development. Through Susan's blog, everyone knows the town where we live, events which we attend, as well as the locations. Any experience individual who has access to my IP can spoof it easily. It does not take a genius for this. /Do I know who did it? Absolutely no. Did I have anything to do with it? Absolutely no./ It also bothers me that USCF contractors can do as they wish with members' info without the consent or approval of the ED, EB or USCF members. Anyone who violates the members' privacy and acted unethically should be dismissed and have all their access to the USCF database and members' info revoked immediately. And the USCF should go after any contractor who violates the NDA which they signed. If not, the USCF will be a target of serious legal problems for the harms they may have caused to a number of USCF members. In my opinion, this is not the time for the USCF to sit back and allow such blatant violations of the members' right to privacy go unpunished. Since this is now an official legal issue, this will be my only statement regarding this matter. The question was asked and I answered. Once the EB and the ED come to a decision, we will announce it." -- Cordially, Rev. J.D. Walker, MsD, U.C.

The question was asked and I answered. > Once the EB and the ED come to a decision, we will announce it." Alright, alright, I will take it one more step... When Mr. Innes said: "She very clearly states, quoting Paul Truong: "Do I know who did it? Absolutely no. Did I have anything to do with it? Absolutely no." Of which she comments: Can this be any clearer? If they wanted it in a different format, they should have officially informed or explained it to us." We have the apparent original message above, and we have Susan's quotation provided by Mr. Innes. A few points about this. 1) She has taken Paul's statement out of context to answer the USCF objection. What was the context? 2) Careful reading of the origianl statement shows that in the paragraph of context he was referring to IP spoofing. 3) If we replace the "it" in his statement with the logical substitute "IP spoofing" we end up with this statement: "Do I know who did the IP spoofing? Absolutely no. Did I have anything to do with the IP spoofing? Absolutely no." 4) Therefore the in-context denial has nothing to do with what the USCF was trying to address. 5) The statement by Susan "Can this be any clearer?" Is misdirection distracting the reader from the fact that she has taken the denial out of context and that it has nothing to do with the issue at hand. 6) Conclusion: Looks like sleazy lying to me. How does it look to you? Now, my anon informant might have put this more elegantly, but I have muddled something together as best I can. <sighs > -- Cordially, Rev. J.D. Walker, MsD, U.C.

And the USCF should go after any >contractor who violates the NDA which they signed.... Much has been made over the brief publication of IP addresses on the USCF Members Only Forum. Brian Mottershead, who was the volunteer responsible for this, was quickly directed to revoke this publication. The IP addresses were exposed for a few hours, mostly in the middle of the night, but their publication was especially troublesome to members who had fixed IP addresses. Mottershead acknowledged he could have handled it better. He was suspended, his suspension evidently driven by strong demands from Truong and Polgar. What I haven't seen discussed is that, some time (a few weeks, I believe) before this fateful night, a poster on this rgcp forum had suggested that IP addresses provided a way to trap the FSS. At that time, the FSS had made a number of rgcp forgeries which copied large amounts of material from the USCF Members website with a line or two modified to change the meaning. Someone noted that a few of these fake rgcp posts were made shortly after the original post appeared on the USCF forum. It was suggested that checking the logs on the USCF site would reveal a very short list of folks who had been active there during the window of time between the original and fake post. This approach seems similar to what Mottershead later implemented. So, it was known some time before Mottershead did his analysis, at least to regular posters, that a review of IP addresses could prove dangerous to the anonymity of the FSS. I often wondered if this had anything to do with Truong and Polgar reportedly demanding Mottershead's immediate suspension when they found out he was reviewing IP addresses. Admittedly, a more abstract concern with the privacy issue provides an alternative explanation.

Probably it is still available in the blog archives. Even so, that does not excuse the fact that it is completely inadequate to serve the purpose of a signed legal document. If Susan and Paul did not understand this they certainly could have asked their own lawyers. It is not anyone else's responsibility to wet nurse their ignorance. Paul has a habit of using Susan's account to post things on their blog at times. Susan may do the same with Paul's account. Perhaps Gregory Alexander gets into the act at times. I do not know. Given this, who actually made the statement on the blog is open to question. -- Cordially, Rev. J.D. Walker, MsD, U.C.

There has been a tolerance of miscreants in this organization for decades. Susan Polgar and Paul Truong are ,IMO, being attacked simply because they are thoughtful agents of change. There is no personal information that is safe once in the hands of the USCF. Confidential information of members is shared or left open to exploitation. Employment applications and resume's of applicants are faxed and distributed "willy-nilly" with no fore-thought to confidentiality. Currently, it appears to me the quickest way to destroy the future of the game of chess in America is to associate it with the USCF.

This might be interesting, but the USCF's attorneys requested information they DON'T have, i.e., information from PT's ISP.

He seems to know what USCF's attorneys have asked, but cut the response which already states 2 things in response to his question; that the questions were answered, and that all information about the issue can be opened up, according to Polgar and Truong. For the record, I have offered USCF the opportunity to respond equally to Susan Polgar. In addition, I have provided a generous deadline to make any simple and official comment themselves, as well as inquiring if they will accord with Susan Polgar's offer to take the lid off all matters heretofore held secret. I obviously cannot take issue with Mike Murray if he states that questions actually put to Polgar and Truong were not answered - since I do not know if that is true. That, indeed, was my reason to ask USCF if Susan Polgar's first statement was true. Now... from the second statement, there seems to be a contest to what is true or not, and the gauntlet still lies on USCF's mat to pick up or not - which is in effect to make statements about what has happened, or to open up so that members themselves can make their own assessment.

Your friend Susan is beyond help as are you. It has been clearly stated by Randy Bauer and Bill G that the attorneys for the USCF asked Truong for a statement by HIM, directly to the attorneys, denying or admitting the Sloan allegations. Simple request. Normal request by ones counsel in litigation. But, a request Truong can't bring HIMSELF to comply with. Guilty people do have problems with such requests. Truong was asked by counsel to facilitate the gathering of evidence from his IPs for use in defending against the Sloan litigation. So Susan responds by saying sure, but not until the Sloan litigation is over. Bullshit will only carry a person so far once the legal action commences. Truong has reached the end of the line.

I should not wish this post to be about either of you, since you both pretend to have comprehension problems by your rhetorical displays in respect of both legal issues, and those merely decent. It is merely curious to me, that the biggest supporter of Sam Sloan in these newsgroups, Mr. Parr, with whom I differ on the worth of Mr. Sloan to ked degree, should also aver with, should I sufficiently understand Mr. Parr, that there should be no more secrets here than Susan Polgar suggests. Indeed, should Mr. Sloan himself be as good as his word about the need for openness on these issues, he might adopt this specific instance to support it himself. Otherwise, as you will well understand, there are those people who, as we say, "mouth off' about things, but when it comes right down to it, they are not as good as their word, or their mouth, so to speak. As to yourself, I take your lack of support for allowing the members to gain their own opinion to indicate your orientation. Should you not quite understand the level of insult here offered you, then you are, in my opinion, rather less than Mr. Sloan who could still notice this issue and be as good as his own word. Your words, sir, have no good in them whatever, and you pronounce upon one-sided net-gossip, as if you had even one thought in your head, rather than the emotional mendacity of a Neil Brennan. Should you, or others who dislike anything but secrecy find these words too 'complicated' I could instead say of you that you are simple, and additionally, you expect others to be simply stupid.

I based my statement on posts on the USCF forum by Goichberg and Bauer, but didn't *quote* anyone. IMO, a good synopsis of the issue was presented in Steve Owen's blog at http://chessusa.blogspot.com/2008/01/susan-polgar-responds-to-request-for.html where he states: <quote > The crux of the matter, as Bauer stated in his USCF Forums post, is that the USCF attorneys asked Truong to: 1. Formally admit or deny, in writing, whether he was involved in the �Fake Sam Sloan� postings, or had knowledge of who made such postings; 2. Provide the IP address of all his home and work Internet connections since 2005, or provide consent for the Board to obtain and cooperate in the Board obtaining, such IP addresses from ISPs and other entities; 3. Provide all information that would support his argument that he was not located at his computer(s) at the time of alleged Fake Sam Sloan postings, to include information relating to his travel. To date, the USCF has not received a formal response to items 1 and 2 and incomplete information relating to item 3. <unquote >

Then we will learn much more. Is Ms. Polgar willing to request that her lawyers drop the motions for dismissal? Let us give her until Friday to indicate her reply. This might end up very expensive for the defense, but /transparency/ and truth would be served. -- Cordially, Rev. J.D. Walker, MsD, U.C.
