Hello Peter, > >Nope, I've never written a checkers program, but I think I know why my name >seems familiar to you - we played a postal chess game back in 1987 or 1988. >That was the first time I ever played postal chess, and I believe I >time-forfeited our game. I hope you'll accept my long-overdue apology. :) > >Hey, in one of your previous posts, you mentioned a Gothic Chess tournament with >2500 players. That's an amazing number. Can you tell me more about that event? > >Nice to run into you again after so many years! > That's right, it was the Golden Knights in 1987, wasn't it? Wow, that is a blast from the past! I have some pictures of the various Gothic Chess tournaments which are published in Gothic Chess Review. That tournament was the Scholastic National where the winner of the college section gets their tuition reimbursed for 1st prize. We are trying to do this on the national level for 5-8, and high school as well, but the issues about forecasting the future value and creating the escrow account for it are a little convoluted. Nice to hear from you again after all this time. --Ed
