Chesshood has grown steadily since I first reported on it a
few weeks ago. The bugs have been
removed and there are quite a few members playing on it now. The forums aren’t frequented much though. The
playing area is well laid out and there is not a long wait for games. You start at 1500 and at this point their top
rated player is 1700ish and most players appear to fall in the 1400-1600
range.
The owner has been working very hard on this site and is
giving it a lot of personal attention. This is your opportunity to get in on the
ground floor of a promising new site. Good site and I wish the owner success! Totally FREE.

Dear All,
ReplyDeleteMost of you probably have never heard of me, my name is Eric and i am Emilie's brother. As you hqve heard; my sister passed in December of 2013, and with her did chesshood. After month of deliberation with my family, and Emilie's, we have decided to reopen chesshood.
The site is currently been worked on it, we have fixed all the bugs that you guys reported to Emilie and her friend Dexter.
The community side of the site however will not be featuring as we took the decision to only concentrate on chess.
Although i can now give you the link on which the site will be accessible from , it won't be for at least the next 2 weeks. I am hoping that in the meantime, you could spread the word
Chesshood is coming back!
Thank you for listening I wish you all the best
Eric
no where in the world can I find an obituary for Emilie Ropars.She worked for the D.E.A. and supposedly was killed in the line of duty but no where can I find a newspaper article pertaining to this shootout.The DEA has an honor role for officers killed in the line of duty but Emilie is no where to be found on the list.If my friend Emilie Ropars has died somebody has to prove it to me before I believe it
ReplyDeleteI can't find any evidence that Emilie Ropars ever existed in the first place. If anyone has, please post it here.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the State of Florida Chesshood.com was registered as a LLC company in 2011 but it is no longer active and the principles listed are not the Ropers. I traced the address down to a private residence.
ReplyDeleteI sent a letter to Eric above and asked him why there is no obituary to be found.He told me Emilie was Jewish and that Jewish people don't believe in obituaries!!! Really ? My newspaper is full of jewish obits on a daily basis.He also told me she is buried in Switzerland but a search of gravesites there turns up nothing
ReplyDeleteThe mystery deepens! Was there not some kind of brouhaha with the Ropers on Chesshere some time back or am I mistaken?
DeleteYes there was.Everyone was leaving chesshere for the Ropars site and Emilie joined chesshere to entice people into leaving.Chesshere is now in shambles.It's a haven for chess engines mostly.There are no forums to speak of.Paid membership for cc chess is less than 100.The new admin Dsuttles is a non paying member who mostly conned his way into the position and knows nothing about running a chess site.One should avoid this site at all costs
Deletechessbook.net has opened and it seems cool i think they have a connection to chesshood
ReplyDeletechessbook.net has open its correspondence chess serve, you need to register onto chessbook.net to access it. Also they will broadcast live in August the US Masters. They have just finished broadcasting the carolina Juniors Invitational yesterday and that was great
ReplyDeleteFYI dsuttles is now a paying member of chesshere.com! there are also 2 other admins there. all the best to anyone who ever made a move on chesshood.com
