 | | IMlday: Thanks <youvsyourself> good idea. This is the original post without the address.
Ed Trice: <Rookhouse - Won't dare answer to the fact that Dr. Frank Brady admitted that Trice approached him about helping to promote "My 61 Memorable Games" before it was ever in the public eye.> I emailed Dr. Frank Brady about this very same thing recently. His email address is [redacted] if you want to contact him and verify what I am posting here. I met him at the World Open, so I was surprised he would say anything about the book involving me. He said he received an email from "me", and after further discussion just the other day, we both agree that the person who emailed him was NOT me, bit someone claiming to be me. He recalled sending me an email a few months after the first email the imposter wrote, but it was not a REPLY to my email address, he COMPOSED it to my email address. He was talking about things I supposedly discussed with him. I replied back "What? I don't know what you are talking about." He now recalls this and admits he was erroneous in his assumption. Furthermore, he states this was not an ANNOUCEMENT at the chess club, like Riverbeast claims it was. Dr. Brady said he was approached by a "young scruffy-looking man, possibly from New England" and asked that question privately. That person is Riverbeast. Riverbeast is probably the original person who tried to spoof an email from me to Dr. Brady. I asked Dr. Brady to foward that email to a former Federal Prosecutor who now is an advisor for the FBI. |

Mar-15-09 | | Jim Bartle: Good decision.
Just to be clear, as I find the presentation a little confusing, in IM Day's post above, everything past the name "Ed Trice" is from Trice, not Mr. Day. |

 | | chancho: <IMDay> I was checking pg 1 of your page, and I was wondering if you are still working on your games collection? |

 | | IMlday: Well that was nostalgic rereading page one from 2004. :) Yes, I still sometimes work on the book but lots of other stuff intervenes. Sometimes quite interesting, like I serendipitously received a review copy of The Posthuman Dada Guide by Andrei Codrescu from Princeton University Press. It starts "This is a guide for instructing posthumans in living a Dada life. It is not advisable, nor was it ever, to lead a Dada life."
The centrepiece to a LOT of musery is a Tzara-Lenin Zurich 1916 chess game (dadaist vs communist)which is ungooglable so forget peaking ahead to the result--it's not over yet. Anyway I'm enjoying it so far; it's really funny. It's courting time for the ducks. Some couples have already paired off. Last year it took a whole month to sort out the flock. Macho mallard male competitions include the "You shut up!" "No you shut up" game where they try to close each others bills with their own. Whichever gets the outside grip can push the other one off the shore into the water. The females watch carefully, keeping score and evaluating thoughtfully. |

Mar-16-09 | | timhortons: duck mating season.
I presume the duck in Asia mate in the same way with the duck in North America. I always pity a duck when it mate with a drake.A large heavy drake step into a ducks back for a certain period of time before it engage in copulation.Sometimes that mating ritual hurt the duck, it takes the skin off the ducks back especially if the drake is so heavy. I'll sell a book on ducks, My book has no copyright claim, no publisher list and the editor are anonymous- I have friends in senate hall, friends in hall of justice, the superfriends are my friends too, it include batman, superman, wonderwoman and plasticman.Ill also include wolverine and the 3 ninja turtles. Like some pizza?
Me i prefer poutine, thanks.
Im day please dont delete the post, just for laugh, Montreal style:) |

Mar-16-09 | | Riverbeast: Wow, <Trice> is there no bottom to the depths you'll sink to? <Furthermore, he states this was not an ANNOUCEMENT at the chess club, like Riverbeast claims it was. Dr. Brady said he was approached by a "young scruffy-looking man, possibly from New England" and asked that question privately. That person is Riverbeast> I never said he made an ANNOUNCEMENT... What I said was that he confirmed it was you who approached him, Trice! <Riverbeast is probably the original person who tried to spoof an email from me to Dr. Brady. I asked Dr. Brady to foward that email to a former Federal Prosecutor who now is an advisor for the FBI> Oh, so now you're going to claim that I, who's been arguing the book is a clear fraud the whole time, imitated you and approached Brady about marketing the book. You couldn't pin it on Labate, so now you're going to try to pin it on me?? Ingenious! You go ahead and run to the FBI....I'm going to love this, and I'll be more than happy to talk to them if they want to talk to me. Filing false charges is a felony, Trice...You try to play those games with me and I'll laugh my arse off when they haul you to prison |

Confidence tricks exploit human weaknesses like greed, dishonesty, vanity, but also virtues like honesty, compassion, or a naïve expectation of good faith on the part of the con artist.> <Just as there is no typical profile for swindlers, neither is there one for their victims. Virtually anyone can fall prey to fraudulent crimes. … Certainly victims of high-yield investment frauds may possess a level of greed which exceeds their caution as well as a willingness to believe what they want to believe. However, not all fraud victims are greedy, risk-taking, self-deceptive individuals looking to make a quick dollar. Nor are all fraud victims naive, uneducated, or elderly.> <Confidence tricksters often rely on the greed and dishonesty of the mark, who may attempt to out-cheat the con artist, only to discover that he or she has been manipulated into losing from the very beginning. This is such a general principle in confidence tricks that there is a saying among con men that "you can't cheat an honest man."> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confid... |

Mar-16-09 | | Shams: <there is a saying among con men that "you can't cheat an honest man."> they say that to justify their own actions. it's total crap, of course. |

 | | ray keene: hi lawrence-thanks for your comments on my pterodactyl game v rogers-you will see that after the most recent update i now have a decent number of games up on chessgames.com ( by decent i mean over 1000 like yourself) |
|
Mar-21-09
 | | IMlday: <ray> Somewhere I may have a picture of us inspecting the British Museum's pterodactyl display circa winter '81. It certainly was a useful line for Swisses then. I was surprised how good your openings were as a 13-14 year old; also noted the early lion vs Sugden. |

Mar-28-09 | | Ed Trice: Hello IM Day,
You have run into the trolls on here, no doubt. I don't understand why they derive perverse enjoyment out of fabricating lies and trying to "take credit away" from some of the obvious things I have done. Surely GM Keene would be able to confirm from colleague Dr. Jonathan Schaeffer that I was of some assistance to Jonthan in his quest to solve checkers (many detractors on here say otherwise). Anyway, here is an article about the $15,000,000 I raised to get Karpov to play Fischer in Gothic Chess. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KQ8DMAfZC... You're probably well aware the Phildadelphia Inquirer would not print any such thing without 3 confirmed sources. Susan Polgar was one of those sources, and she is cited in the article. I also had to show copies of the account statements with the money in place, and they went to great lengths to get overseas confirmation of the account. This is from a blog that contains a list of some of the things I have done that made the news, or was published, or covered by the media in some way. From my chess program that people claim I didn't write (yet I sat next to Hans Berliner at HiTech's last tournament while my program played in the same event), to the patent I supposedly never had, the list goes on and on. http://edtrice.blogspot.com/
Don't let the clowns on here try and tell you what I did or did not do. |

 | | ray keene: we need to bo back to the british museum of natural history for some more pterodactyl shots-i am not sure where the originals are now- tho i do have pics of myself with a t rex and a triceratops-thanks for the comments about my juvenile openings-one thing i did do was -like hubner many years later-take on c3 in the nimzo without waiting for a3-just to make sure the doubled pawns arose! re ed trice and chinook-i dont recall but i can check with jonathan. btw i have no opinion yet in this debate since i havent seen the product which is causing the controversy. a quick update for the perplexed wd be helpful and much appreciated! |

Mar-29-09 | | Ed Trice: Hi Ray,
Some of the trolls on here insist that I claimed to have written the "Checkers World Champion" program. I never made that claim. I did co-author a program named "World Championship Checkers" with my friend Gil Dodgen. N.B. "-ship" changes the whole meaning! Anyway, it's a free download at http://www.WorldChampionshipChecker... Next item for the checkers pions: they say I never helped Jonathan Schaeffer at all. Yet he mentions myself (and Gil) on his website under the "thank you" link http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~chinook/...
It's under the category of "Database Verification".
Jonathan was also nice enough to recount how Gil and I, in 2001, found 89 erroneous positions in the Chinook endgame databases (what chess players call tablebases the checkers world calls databases). Had Jonathan built his 9- and 10-piece databases off of this, they would have been incorrect, and his checkers proof would have been faulty. Fortunately, this was fixed in 2001 before he started the big push to solve checkers. Jonathan explains all of this in his new book. I'm in the index, so it's very easy to look all of this up, yet the trolls here continue to say "No you didn't." They're all very childish.
Anyway, this same cluster of people are trying to say I never went to Iceland to meet Fischer. It's well documented that I have. Sorry to bog down the page with such a trivial entry. It's just that Lawrence, in his review of "My 61 Memorable Games", has inadvertantly attracted the same collection of low-lifes to badger him. I just wanted to let him know, he is dealing with people who never let the facts get in the way of their own far-flung, ridiculous conclusions. |
