I participated in Shredder vs The World, I won a prize in that event and
Gambit-Soft failed to make good on that prize, after more than 5 months of me
trying to
collect! There were others as well who were cheated out of their prizes.

Manish Varma was among them. I don't know the exact number who were swindled but
it was at least 10 people!

They wouldn't even return my  e-mail after 2 months or so.

If you don't believe me, ask Millennium.

Although they would not help me either they told me their side of the story.

I spoke with Mr. Weiner several times via e-mails.

Mr. Weiner told me the matter between them (Millennium) and Rolland Troger
(Gambit-Soft) was going to be settled in court.


Frank Quisinsky acted as a go between for me with Rolland but Frank couldn't
persuade Rolland to act.

Frank even sent me some downloads, but no CD, and Millennium was satisfied with
that. Gambit-Soft never replied of course.

It was Ed Schroder who saw this situation, and he, although he certainly didn't
have to, but being the very good person he is resolved the issue, for me by
allowing me to choose a Rebel product of my choice!



I'm on bad terms with Gambit-Soft, cool terms with Millennium, good terms with
Frank and extremely impressed with Ed!

I will say for the record, Rebel and Ed Schroder is the number 1 company selling
chess software, and Ed is the most personable businessman in this business bar
none!
