Jun-04-05		Jaymthetactician: See?!?! Shouldnt it read 1601 instead?

Jul-24-05		dac1990: Once again, we have a man who has apparently found the holy grail.

Jul-25-05		Giearth: Interesting...

Jul-25-05		BishopofBlunder: I wouldn't call a chess match with a dead man a "casual" game, exactly...

Jul-25-05		BishopofBlunder: 'Course, maybe it was a correspondence game? Or distance match? John Edwards could have "received" the moves from the other side and played them on the board for the dearly departed.

Jul-25-05		Giearth: You mean playing with... a ghost, or other etheriel beings? O_o

Jul-25-05		BishopofBlunder: The only thing worst than playing a dead man is getting beat by one. (Polerio was +4 -0 =0 in games in 1801)

Jul-27-05		Giearth: GIULIO CESARE POLERIO born 1548, died 1612... Eerie...

Sep-07-08		myschkin: . . . In 1575, Polerio, who was nicknamed l'Abruzzese because Lanciano is in the Abruzzo region in Italy, accompanied his friend Giovanni Leonardo to Madrid. He and Leonardo played together as a team, contesting their chess skills against the formidable Ruy Lopez and Spain's other master chess player, Alfonso Ceron. Later the Italians were joined by Paolo Boi , also known as Il Siracusano. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giulio... Bio (in German): http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giulio...
