| Jul-05-08 | | gambitfan: An amazing guy !

 | | KAIT: Bloodgood had played in his life The Grob opening only,just,I don`t know other openings played from him. Sometimes I think "63 games only- is that a human life dedicated to chess?"
Sometimes I play Grob, "a double edge razor", I can say, because it may be dangerous weapon for White and Black equally,this is my expierence. |
|
| Nov-14-08 | | Octal: He only played three games as black... |

| Jan-02-09 | | sallom89: <brankat: How ironic: This guy has a Biography much more detailed than those of most of GMs around here.> It was more fun to read though..more than any other GM, much like a story lol. |
|
| Jun-05-09 | | arthurp: Anyone know what Bloodgood played against 1.e4? I'm guessing 1.e4 d5
2.exd5 c6. |
|
| Jun-05-09 | | blacksburg: P Sternberg vs C Bloodgood, 1959 |
|
| Jul-14-09 | | just a kid: Happy birthday murderer! ;) |
|
| Aug-13-09 | | Knight13: Wow this guy gets a lot of fame for killing his stepmother, escaping under supervision, beating up a guard, and partially responsible for dismantling Virginia Penitentiary Chess program. All because he got good at moving a bunch of plastic pieces around 64 squares. I wonder what people would think when an average employee from Wal-mart does the same thing.... Oh, oops, he doesn't have the reputation of beating the crap out of inmates at chess so he gets an 100% notoriety ticket. |

| Aug-29-09 | | Dredge Rivers: On a Monday, I was arrested
on a Tuesday, they locked me in a cell
on a Wednesday, my trial was attested
and on a Thursday, they said "Guilty" and the judge's gavel fell.I GOT STRIPES,
STRIPES AROUND MY SHOULDERS.
I GOT CHAINS,
CHAINS AROUND MY FEET.
I GOT STRIPES,
STRIPES AROUND MY SHOULDERS.
AND THOSE CHAINS, THOSE CHAINS
THEY'RE ABOUT TO DRAG ME DOWN ! |
|
| Aug-29-09 | | MorphysMojo: There was a gay inmate named Claude,
Made famous by lovers of bawd,
Useless till the end
He did greatly offend
Until death freed us from this dumb broad. |

| Aug-29-09 | | Dredge Rivers: I hear that train a-commin'... |

 | | redlance: Sam Sloan,reprinting The Tactical Grob |
|
| Dec-01-10 | | MaxxLange: Yay for experts and minor masters who win against weak players with offbeat openings, and then claim to have shown a theoretical result about chess theory |
|
| Feb-02-11 | | rich187113: why has this guy got more whites than blacks. |
|

 | | chancho: If they ever make a movie about Bloodgood, this actor would fit the bill: http://content7.flixster.com/photo/... His name is Pruitt Taylor Vince. |
|
| May-01-11 | | I play the Fred: <He was a big fish in a small pond!!!> More like a small fish in a shot glass. |

 | | perfidious: But he was 2700! Doesn't that mean he could really play? |
|
| Aug-06-11 | | whiteshark: "Certainly one of the most enigmatic figures in the chess scene, however, took a late notice of him - and the proof that it's certainly better people early introduce to chess, to direct their destructive instincts in a reasonably harmless channels - so it possible only when (wannabe) pro-GM terrorizing their environment with excessive demands, instead of heavier crime. He became famous course through consistent use of the <Burma-effect>, which you should probably tell him to honor <Bloodgood effect>: the knowledge that all the current rating systems are prone to bias due largely isolated sub-communities. In Bloodgood case you can not even blame him, because he was only forced to play against his fellow inmates ... If by setting the label should not (rare enough, the deficit is indeed at all on the subject): Perhaps one could even some in memory of his legendary USCF rating of 2702 that professionals who travel through the crossing in the advanced world-class have now reached <Bloodgood status>? Sounds somehow better than ever trite messages about new "Super-GMs" - if you have not can not be entirely." machine translation of http://rankzero.de/?p=1762 |

| Aug-08-11 | | rogl: Maybe Bloodgood and Hitler are analysing the Grob together somewhere http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NP3J.... |
|
| Jul-02-12 | | arthurp: Unless Claude had white all the time ,what did he play against 1.e4.
I'm talking about the date of 1990 and
up. |
|
| Jul-14-12 | | waustad: Bloodgood would be 75 today. |
|
| Aug-25-12 | | Wyatt Gwyon: I wonder if chess is popular in Hell. |
