Connor, as well as some others, might be interested in looking at this link...

http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~chinook/WallofHonor.php or click here

If you scroll way to the bottom of the first list, which is the list of those who played Chinook, the world's strongest checker program for years, on its most difficult setting, you will see...


86. Ed Trice, October 21, 1996
87. Carl "The Gloc" Reno, October 21, 1996
88. Richard Fortman, August 30, 1996
89. Valtas "The Great Huck-A-Buck" Hockenbury, June 10, 1996
90. Carl "The Gloc" Reno, March 31, 1996
91. James "Too Slick" Davis, January 27, 1996
92. Valtas "The Great Huck-A-Buck" Hockenbury, January 27, 1996
93. James "Too Slick" Davis, January 17, 1996

I was the fifth person to defeat Chinook, back in October of 1996. Just to remind everyone,in 1996 there did not exist any program that was nearly as strong as Chinook. This was a time when 100 MHz computers were top of the line, and hard drives were typically half a gig in size.

I beat one of the strongest checker programs of all time, and I was in the company of some truly great players.

I don't need a computer program to assist me to play. I beat the best of the best.

Now look at the "explosion' of names on the list in later years as programs and hardware advances made them more formidable.

Funny how so few had victories in 1996 when I played, but there were many more in later years.

Subject: Aragon's Checkered Past Update
It looks like gooner KM and ronco have both shell shocked Pedro Martínez with two quick wins in the Aragon's Checkered Past tournament. And SunFire KM gets a quick point against higher rated Aragon in section 2. Still no points on the board in section 1 at this early stage.

When it was first posed as a question, I do not think anyone knew what was the exact cause. It had not been observed previously.

But when messages are hidden, the counter increments external to the board, but the messages will not appear.

We all know this now, and nobody, myself included, was aware of this yesterday. I thought maybe a poster deleted the posts and that could account for the discrepancy.

the posts are not deleted. He sees them. They are hidden.

I've heard also, Mister Trice will have
(why for goodness must it be italic, Dano?)
an innocent explanation for his false assert,
when yesterday this gentleman stated here,
Herforder himself had deleted three posts.

A post off-topic and, belonging to the jokes-board
whereto it even might be pasted, one of these days.

In case you have not noticed. Everyone has been given a clear slate at ths point in time. Dano was warned about his posts, which were unwarranted, and now he is gone.

He keeps making mention of manipulated posts. I am not sure what he means by that. I occasionally make typo corrections or punctuation changes at the tournament board, if this is manipulation, so be it.

Yes, I posted that I would help everyone playing Dano in Gothic Chess to win. I was letting off steam, but I really meant it when I said it. Logistically, does anyone really believe this was possible? In fact, nobody took me up on my offer, as those who were members of the fellowship recall. They all wanted to try and give him a drubbing by their own hands, win, lose, or draw.

I posted it mostly because I knew it would agitate dano when it leaked, so the spies helped me immensely, and I thank you for it.

It was an impossible task to do (play every move for every opponent against dano) but knowing the way his paranoia is manifest, I knew it would send him over the deep end.

So what had I actually done?

I made a post, then took no action on it. How many times a day do we each do similar things? You see a beautiful woman walking down the street, do you think "I wonder if she likes doing Crossword Puzzles?" If you see an armored car making a cash pickup at a store, do you think "I wonder what kind of gas mileage it gets?"

No, we have fleeting thoughts about getting her in the sack, and tossing bags of money into the back seat and peeling off down the road. (Or maybe peeling off down the road with the girl in the back seat, and sleeping with the bags of money, whatever you prefer!)

The point being my previous fellowship was created for those to let off steam about dano, much as this one is most likely geared at letting steam off about me.

But does anyone really think I crashed the server just so dano, who won his section in the $3000 Gothic tournament, would not be able to continue on? Did he really think I was making all of those moves against him and he kept beating me game after game?

Folks, you have to face the fact that he was at least a little off his rocker. If nothing else, this must be conceeded.

The server crashed. That's all that happened.

A new policy is in place. It is one we can all live with. When I make a post about how the 4 kings in the deck of cards are not really modeled after those in antiquity that have permeated the culture, then someone calls me a prick for doing so, a line has been crossed. It was uncalled for.

Even now, I could of had this person banned, but I elected not to do so.

No more warnings will ever be issued, as the policy is any direct insult, in a private or public forum, will result in an immediate banning.

If it cannot be discussed without name calling, do us all a favor, and save yourself some keystrokes.

If you have read the hidden message I placed in this post, you know which 4 people will be banned next because they will most likely make snide remarks about this post. This is what I am hoping for. This is the bait.
