What does everyone think of the idea of having tournaments here at
RHP? We could group together players of similair ratings for "round-
robin" play, or group everyone together for a "swiss" event.

why similar ratings! ratings are no indication of how "good you are"
everyones ratings would be higher if they had more time to play
instead of working!

i say there should be tournaments on a saturday or sunday. it
shouldnt be by mail,we should sit down n finish it. it should occur
according to rhp time. what do u think?

It is interesting how it is always the weakest and lowest rated players
who say ridiculous things like "ratings are no indication of how good
you are". I guess Kasparov's 2800+ rating is no different than a "c"
class players 1500 elo rating! If a weak player has more time to play,
he will likely have an even lower rating than before, by racking up
more losses.

look "guest" If I want to hear from you I will let you know. I would
advise you to resist your quidnunc nature and stay out of matters that
do not concern you. Instead of taking away the forums, maybe they
should just ban instigators like yourself.

What has xeno done wrong? If you want to tell someone to calm down
it should be the people who are starting the conflicts like "nickraider"
and "stevens" and "improvistatore". It seems to me like you are all
friends and are jealous of "xenophobe"'s success here. For what it is
worth, you are all much better than me at this game and I have no
illusions about my chess ability. I do, however, hate to see someone
being attacked and provoked into an argument by a bunch of jealous
chatterboxes. Why don't you people stop picking on "xenophobe" in
the forums and try to improve your games so as to compete with him
on the chess board?

have you had the pleasure of playing him?? ? i for one just dont want
him to sound off about others ability to play !! with personal insults
designed to make his opponents resign and award points without
confirmation!(checkmate) there is nothing to be jealous of!! he
refuses to play low nicks! refuses a challenge! challenges makes a
insult then deletes the game. Yes he should calm down and stop
his "superior" attitude to all here. how can he claim to be the best
there is when there are nearly 4 thousnd nicks here and hes played
about 200!!! a small minority!! but is making it bad for all!

If it were up to me I would bar you from this site permanently! You
seem to be obsessed with this "xenophobe", and are relentless in
your attempts to start chat wars once again. Hopefully the webmasters
will see what is going on here and do just that. Whether or not
someone wants to play someone else is their business, not anyone
elses. I don't blame him for not wanting to play with you. You
probably make annoying comments at every move. I don't see any
evidence of this "superior attitude" as you put it either. Maybe it is
YOU who has the "superior attitude" and are envious and jealous of
his superior results. I think you are making up everything else as well.
If you don't want to play with someone you can delete their game
offer without even looking in the game to see whether or not there
were comments made. I even know that and I just started here. Stop
being a pest and grow up! There is a world outside of Red Hot Pawn.

I am sorry for you! You are the most pathetic trouble maker I have
ever come across! Why don't you learn some manners and stop
starting trouble with people. First "xenophobe" and now me. I wonder
how many other people you have annoyed and pissed off at Red Hot
Pawn.

I didn't know children under 12 were allowed to play at RHP. It is very
nice of your father to let you use the computer for your entertainment
eh Michael?
