Let’s All Get Rich Quick Scheme No.46

That would mean playing out all those games again.

The blunders...I see them in my sleep...one bad move after another.

Nightmares!. I'm being chased through dark endless corridors by giant Questions Marks.

Make a book out of annotating all my games then, then at least you can laugh at all the question marks, not to mention the double or even triple ones.

Scheme 51: classified, top secret. Go to scheme 52.

Scheme 52: take out a patent on dark energy.

Scheme 53: Once you’ve got the patent on dark energy, wait 350 years, build the time machine and send it back in time to Nigeria; then go back in time to last month and take delivery on the machine from Nigeria. Then go farther back in time and send Staunton back to the Pleistocene. Take Staunton’s place and challenge Morphy to a match. No matter if you win or lose, your reputation will be assured. Patent the Staunton design. Hey presto, you’ll have the money to finance the dark energy patent lawyer fees!

Look out everybody - I think Moonbus has a time machine.

He will be going forward in time to see what you play in your games
and back again to stop it.

Check your games where you remember you have castled and
then discover that you haven't. Try and castle again and you will find
that you can't because the system thinks you have already castled.

Moonbus has ruined Christmas.

My latest idea to get loads of money.

Blunders from Kasparov, Karpov, Euwe and the RHP player tiby99.

Plus some advice on how to avoid them.

Strange. Somehow I was reading that as some announcement you'd publish a guaranteed popular book based on blunders from those four players. Then I realized it was just about the content of the blog.

But why not write a book like "the most painful/instructive blunders of chess"? Don't tell me that market is saturated, a niche topic of too much work.... I don't think it's written yet (not counting stuff like "The Seven Deadly Chess Sins" ) and surely you as a collector would certainly buy it yourself!

Perhaps one (E-)book doesn't seem like a get rich scheme but think of the 66 volumes following it and the subscription people could take out. It could also be sold door-to-door perhaps, like the good old times! The books basically would write themselves! And no, this post is only half tongue in cheek. 😵

Hi deejee,

Not too sure. People read this silly stuff because it's free.
Feedback does strongly indicate there are instructive things in there
But I doubt if anyone outside RHP would be interested.
The trend seems to be it must be an opening book and only use top GM games.

I do it because I enjoy being daft, the instrucitve bit is an accident 😉

In the land of the blind the one eyed man is King.

Good money is to be made following trends.

Great money is made creating a new trend.

The previous 45 all failed.

Data Fly's idea (Scheme 14) of kidnapping one of the Royal Family was the worst failure.

We ended up nabbing the wrong person, a poor house wife from Dover
who looked a little bit the like Queen. We let her go after a few hours so
she could go home and make her husband's tea.

Scheme 21. Pretend I'm Carlsen, charge ...[text shortened]... miserable failures.

I need a more capable gang instead of the inapt RHP players I am in with.

I learned of another cool scheme in Prison, from a guy from my hometown! Here's the scoop:
