 | | Richard Taylor: I didn't get on particularly well with tpstar but it is sad to see such a young man die. What did he die of? Did he overreact to this Covid Pandemic and his business issues? Or was he ill? My condolences to Tony's family. |

 | | FSR: OMG. This is just horrible. I am so sorry. Tony was a great guy. He was far too young to die. My condolences to his family. 2020 continues to be a year from hell. |

 | | Richard Taylor: I think Tony overall was a good bloke and he did take an interest in some of my games in the early days. It is a shock to see another "veteran" go from chessgames.com. He got bogged down in some "internal" political issues and with the notoriously degenerate & vicious Rogoff-BP group, and a debate about Wesley So which seemed crazy to me: but those things are of trivial people and trivial events I believe he was better than the Rogoffers & other sickos on here: he did a lot it can be seen for chess (coaching, playing etc) and no doubt as a medical man. His commentaries as kind of poems on his own games were good and he played some interesting games. And indeed, he did help me. He was a strongly rated player considering he wasn't a professional.... |

Sep-23-20 | | wordfunph: rest in peace, tpstar.. |
|
Sep-23-20 | | Caissanist: <Richard Taylor> No cause of death was given, but he posted back in May that he was taking a break from chess activities "to deal with medical issues", so it was apparently not sudden. Whatever it was, I hope that at least he didn't suffer. |
|
Sep-24-20 | | pulsar: RIP, Tony. Condolences to the family. |
|
Sep-24-20 | | technical draw: Wow, didn't know about <tpstar>. May he rest in peace. He was one of the old timers. We got along well. |
|
Sep-27-20
 | | Richard Taylor: <Caissanist> Thanks. I feel I could have got on with him if I'd played some games with him. But he is a part of my experience on here and with <TD> I say 'May he rest in peace', and I feel saddened -- such a thing is always sad. He did a lot for this site and chess and was a good person. |
|
Sep-29-20 | | Caissanist: Does anyone else have a favorite <tpstar> comment? Here's mine, from Topalov vs I Sokolov, 2006 : <I held a quick seance to determine the next move:Alekhine = 18. f4
Botvinnik = 18. Ba3!?
Capablanca = 18. exd5
Tal = 18. Nxc7!?
Nakamura = 18. Qh5!?
Kramnik = 1/2-1/2>
He never was much of a Kramnik fan ... |

Sep-29-20 | | siggemannen: Very sad news to me. I have always enjoyed tpstar's comments on the games here, and he seem to be really appreciated in the professional life, seems to be an all-around nice guy. Best wishes to his family |

 | | Williebob: Missed this until now, very sad to see this news and I would like to add to the chorus of well-wishers for Tony’s family. |

I didn't really get it. Was it supposed to be along the line of the Iliad? Not my cup of tea. |

Apr-04-24 | | SugarDom: My Impossible Dream
By Tipsy Star
To clean the impossible Page
To delete the undeletable post
To bear with only Wesley So
To post where the brave dare not go
To right the off-topicable wrong
To make pure and chaste for a page
To type when your arms are too weary
To please the unpleasable Star
This is my quest
Coz I’m Tipsy Star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a finicky cause
And I know if I'll only be true
To this foolish quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the Page will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To please the unpleasable Star |
