Stop this lying nonsense. It is perfectly obvious that this motion was by Bill Goichberg.

The moderation committee was hand-picked by Bill Goichberg.

The decision to allow rank beginners to buy into the US Championship for $50,000 was also made by Bill Goichberg.

All of these decisions and motions that you say were made by Bill Hall even on days when Bill Hall was out "sick" were all made by Bill Goichberg.

 

Do you really think you are fooling anyone?

Finally, to anticipate one further counter which has not yet surfaced here, but which was offered in an earlier thread on the purported resume topic, I wish to point out that in the vast amount of information, documents and statements emanating from Mr. Sloan, I have seen overstatements, mistaken assumptions, wrong conclusions, and other plain old invalid things, but I have never seen a document that has been shown to have been doctored by him in any way. ... In addition, Hal seems to have completely skipped the episode where Sloan altered an email from me to say exactly the opposite of what I posted. Here is the prior post #31474 that I referred to from the topic Protected Candidates About Whom Criticism is Not Allowed:   SteveTN wrote: samsloan wrote: On my own Yahoo Group, although I am often attacked there I have never modified or deleted a chess-related posting and I have never banned or blacklisted a legitimate chess poster, although many have written objectionable or Anti-Sloan things.   This is a blatant Sam Sloan prevarication. Sam Sloan maliciously modified my post disagreeing with Sloan's erroneous posts about the Tennessee property by cutting and pasting my comments from a reply to Sloan onto a forged post to Grant Perks. This all happened within Sloan's "FIDE-CHESS" Yahoo group. Sloan also cross posted his forgery to other forums including RGCP. The below URL to a message in FIDE-CHESS documents Sloan's forgery. http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/fide-chess/message/22469 Also, here is a brief rundown of the events in April 2005 as I just relayed them to lblair:   SteveTN wrote: In fact, we are both correct. Sloan pasted my reply to Sloan (1) under a Grant Perks post (2) to make it seem as if I were replying to Perks. Sloan also used that faked post in another thread to say I was opposed to Perks' POV (3). The post I initially responded to was a Sloan response to Bauer (4). (1) http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/fide-chess/message/19981 (2) http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/fide-chess/message/19986 (3) http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/fide-chess/message/19968 (4) http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/fide-chess/message/19967   Finally, as a guide to the whole twisted affair is lblair's note (#31505) from the same thread as above where lblair reproduces the offending altered note from Sloan (notice Sloan's Yahoo ID at the top) and the actual post I authored after.   lblair wrote: ___"SteveTN complains that I quoted him out of context back in 2005. ___ ___However, he does not deny that he wrote the words that I quoted. ___ ___Of course, when replying or responding to a posting, I will not quote ___the whole thing.

I am convinced that Mr. Sloan did cobble together elements of different emails, producing false impressions of your position. Likewise, after reviewing the research posted by John Hillery showing a BINFO originating from Bill Hall and then showing a reponse by Mr. Sloan quoting that BINFO, but in which the attribution of authorship of the original had been changed to show it as written by Bill Goichberg, I am convinced that Mr. Sloan does indeed alter or cobble together emails in ways that are blatantly misleading. I thank you both, as well as Mr. Falter and Tanstaffl, who raised the initial challenge to me. I still see this as somewhat different than the possibility that the Truong resume may have been doctored, for all the reasons I have expressed in previous posts. _________________ Hal Bogner hal@chessmagnet.com http://www.ChessMagnetSchool.com
