Hey, on my website, I have compiled a list of the greatest names in yahoo ladder history, to my knowledge. Check it out on my webpage which is located at www.geocities.com/that_pope I would love feedback on the list, who you think I left out, if i have any duplicate names, and who should not be on the list. Be honest all, no bashing just cause you dislike someone. I will ponder all suggestions, and make some noted changes. Thanks all!!!

ur site sux, no offence, u need best ratings and stuff
that_pope
10-10-2002, 11:45 PM
no one cares about best ratings and other cheated stuff, but i can personally tell you the best ratings belong to rits and his friends, does that help? almost every yahoo chess site that i know to have existed had best ratings and was dedicated solely to cheating, so yeah, thats been done before

Nobody cares about ratings... but they care about famous ids?
didnt see any of my ids on that list, i must not of had any famous one :( but jody makes the list lol
that_pope
10-11-2002, 02:53 AM
as i said, it was a list of famous ids in my eyes. I was at ladder from 11/99 til it closed, so unless i forgot you, you arent famous. And all you newbies, you dont count, you werent an important part of ladder like i was. :)

10-11-2002, 10:06 AM
Umm... i was #1 ;) and i had the best 3/0 stats of anyone ever @ ladder even 'grandmaster' Phych himself (please note inverted commas around grandmaster for sarcastic effect)
thats impossible you were a better 3/0 player than phychs prog
that_pope
10-11-2002, 01:29 PM
I agree, thats what i was hoping wouldnt happen, people thinking they deserve to be on the list just cause they got #1 or top 10 or have a high rating or something. These are people that most everyone will recognize. #1 isnt all that important, it got thrown around so much, anyone who begged for a few days could probably get it. So yeah, thats why I want honest opinions on my list.
-$mev-
10-11-2002, 01:54 PM
umm... i beat phchys dumb prog everytime.. without doubt.. i would be down 1 pawn or so and then his slow prog would run outta time.. it was v.close on material or even.. he never beaten me anyway.. I always beat manual proggers @ 3/0 on time and interfaces are often weaker so I normally beat them.. Pope.. how about me and you 3/0? U can prog or whatever and if i win i go on that list and u accept I deserve it more than the list of predominenantly losers u have there (Cuatillo for 1!)
sounds like you are a grandmaster smev, played kasporov lately?
that_pope
10-11-2002, 03:56 PM
listen, this list isnt a judgement of character, chess skill or anything. it is a list of famous, recognizable yahoo chess ladder names. sheeesh, im not putting anyones chess game or character down by not having them on the list
im just saying smev thinks hes a grandmaster.. he cant beat a manual prog, try me smev, ill get a prog and we'll play 3/0, how about it?
that_pope
10-11-2002, 08:55 PM
Hmmmm, were you and caley on my list? if not, im sorry, i made that list like a half year ago, and you two definately deserve to be on there.
As for the a1 incedent, #1 he did not hack me, i went to a site that stole my cookies, foolish me. #2, he only gave me 700ish losses, so i gave myself 1500 wins to keep it at same win percentage, about 72. So whatever you think you know, you dont.
And no, i am not a newbie at chess.net. Ive been there since april 2000, and currently rank 21st in all time tourney wins with 405, i will be 19th on sunday when it updates with around 430. I have been a td there, was accepted to be a guide, but decided it was too annoying to do while playing. Everyone there knows me, i am not a newbie, and havent been for about a year. So please only talk about what you know.

andy, i dont really remember what names you played under in ladder, and as for quad, i knew of him and what not, but to my knowledge, spent most of his time in open room, not really part of ladder. So i dont think he deserves to be on the list
i played as chess_andy mostly

I remember when I was a newbie. I thought jazz was great he told me to tell limp that "jazz sent me" when I wanted ratman. Limp bluntly told me to tell jazz to f u c k off. LOL (man, those were good times)THE FIRE THAT BURNS WITHING WILL DESTROY YOU BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE WILL

11-03-2002, 06:15 PM
I missed that before.. sure Andy.. manual prog me 3/0 and i'll beat it on time.. manual progs are too slow.. never lost as yet @ 3/0... oh actually lebs new prog beat me once and Sultan beat me once.. but hes either a rated player or a prog i hear so no big loss there.. i beat all them frit_7_i_am idiots in advanced 1.. maybe a pawn down or equal sometimes but always a minute or so up :p ... i'll play all your dolla's for all mine if i get chance to practice andy ;) And i've played 12yrs now so im ok.. see how long i really been on yahoo.. utah.. this'll clear it up for you too!! Before I went to spain i played yahoo games.. whats my name? "Steven Evans"... go and look @ when the id StevenEvans was made.. you'll find i made it and currently own it ;)

11-03-2002, 11:02 PM
Yes Andy was very good at 1/0. Under the id chess_andy, talk about a 1/0 player.
Realged13
11-03-2002, 11:07 PM
O yea, add i_hate_1_0_progs. He was my old buddy WK. He had cable connection. He beat Chessmate several times. Hes not a prog. Was #1. He was REALLY good.

Oh, you should add me in there under literati. Along with martina, karren and ken. hehehehe

i dont do literati, neither have a site about literati greats. Maybe you should take that up.
Mark__C

Yeah, where the hell am I? I should be on that list! Nah, not really. I don't even know the majority of those people, though.

Here is the thread I started a long time ago on this subject Utah, you are just copying me, how sad.
Ladder was just something else, but I think it was ran best by Rits and Cuatillo, that's just me though.... Pope nice content you have on your website, a lot of nice work.
that_pope
07-23-2003, 03:12 AM
rits and cuatillo ran one, or two ladders, not all of them. Popsicle and space_ty had one, sk had a few with phych and carver, rits and limp has one with shortstop, and magic harry, ipc, and jb had the first couple. The one right after harry and ipc stopped, my team won the reset, then sk hacked us, that was legendary....
Yea, that was when Yahoo Games was actually a lot of fun.

By tetris, I meant pac-man. I was the best at those 3, and many people were better than me at tetris and breakout.

trevor_kid_420
07-24-2003, 05:03 AM
SK wasn't really much of a hacker, he just boosted, then when ladder trick came along he stopped, I talked to him about it once, he said the ladder trick made boosting lame, made it too easy...
trevor_kid_420
07-24-2003, 05:06 AM
But i'd have to say the biggest hacker was terrorist, that dude was always crackin, the dude never quit it made me kinda sick

I like it when, Pope and Utah argue, both are very smart, I will admit that but it just go's in circles will anyone ever win? Will either of them ever admit that the other is right and they are wrong? Fat Chance, so why don't you guys flip a coin or something.
that isnt utah
