If you want to know why Fischer didn't play, your search begins and ends with Robert James Fischer. Amazing that something so obvious has to be written. |

 | | TheFocus: I personally do not believe that Fischer ever planned on playing after he won the title. But, certainly not after 1975. FIDE agreed to many of his demands because organizers had been giving into his demands for years. Sure, some of his demands made for better conditions for players, but let someone try that nowadays and they would find their invitations would drop to zero. And rightly so. |

 | | AylerKupp: <diceman> It was not my wish to either "lose" Fischer or the Fischer vs. Karpov match. On the contrary, it saddens me greatly to have lost the opportunity to see the games that would have resulted from the Fischer vs. Karpov match (which I suspect would have been of excellent quality) as well as additional Fischer games post-match, regardless of the outcome of the match. But it was Fischer who made the non-negotiable demands and decided to stick to his principles no matter what. When you do that there is always a risk that the other side will not go along, but Fischer was willing to accept the consequences. Fischer took that risk and we were all losers because of it. In the end, it was Fischer's choice to both "lose" the match as well as "lose" himself by refusing to play additional high-level games until his match with Spassky in 1992. I neither condemn nor applaud Fischer for his decision; it was his decision to insist that all his demands be acquiesced to and he was entitled to make that decision and stick to it. Nor was it my interest to "spare" FIDE. I think made it quite clear that I thought that FIDE should have agreed to Fischer's last demand, that in case of a 9-9 tie that the champion (Fischer) retains the title. Whether this gave the champion too much of an advantage or not I will let others decide; I just wanted to point out that there seemed to be ample precedent for such a condition in previous WC matches. I do think that FIDE has brought a period of stability to the World Chess Championship from 1948 to the present. Have all their decisions and actions been proper and correct? Of course not. Would a different organization with a different structure and approach be better? Perhaps, or perhaps not. But I do think that the World Chess Championship has been in better shape after FIDE was in control than before, where each champion would effectively dictate the terms of a WC match. The only points that I was really trying to make were: 1. The champion (or for that matter, the challenger) had no <right> to make demands. Of course they could (and even should) make them, and FIDE owed it to both of them to seriously consider them and make appropriate changes to the match conditions. I think that they did that for the 1975 match, just like they did for the 1972 match. 2. We did not <deserve> either the Fischer vs. Karpov WC match or additional high-level Fischer games. Sure, it would have great if we could have had both, but we had no <right> to insist that either Fischer and Karpov produced those games. |

| May-21-13 | | diceman: <TheFocus:

Lets see who watches chess when the greats are chased out of it.
(and others don’t even try)
I don’t think Carlsen will be around long. |

| | TheFocus: <diceman> I'm talking about the kinds of unreasonable demands that Fischer made, not the ones that improved player's conditions. It looks like I mixed ideas there. It doesn't read the way I meant it. |
|
| May-22-13 | | RFW3: <TheFocus: I personally do not believe that Fischer ever planned on playing after he won the title. But, certainly not after 1975.> I don't believe he ever intended to play the match against Karpov either. Even if FIDE had given in to the 9-9 provision he demanded, I believe Fischer would have come up with something else to throw at them. |

TheFocus/diceman/AylerKupp + NOT harryect ~
Attempting to provide claritas:
1) FIDE & the IOC both reeek/ed of corruption-in-excelsis. 2) Bobby's Principles were non-negotiable. (Real ones are never.) 3) Beethoven's Principles were non-negotiable.
4) Because of 2 & 3:
BOTH WERE THE FIRST TRUE PROFESSIONALS IN THEIR FIELDS.
(Bobby had no day job :: Ludwig was not owned by any royal patron.) (Bach's patron commanded him to crank out cantatas
(for every day of the year, & JSB rolled over for him.
(He had to... to support 14 kids.
(The word "prolific" comes to mind...
3) Principle #179 was not new (see 'bitzer above
4) For correct answer resolving alll Fischer/Karpov ANGST-ST-ST

…another who was privy to Fischer’s day to day routine. …and of course, the story among Fischer haters goes he was “afraid” of Karpov.
Gee, I think you’d need to analyze Karpov’s games to be afraid of him. <2) <not> <playing> <anyone>, in or out of FIDE, for 20 years and then playing Spassky a dozen years after Spassky ceased being relevant and then <not> <playing> <anyone> until he died.> …and being clairvoyant, we knew that in 1974.
<after Spassky ceased being relevant> …as long as you consider $5 million “not” relevant.
(maybe one day we will see the games,
I understand the press didn’t want to cover “non-relevant” players) Of course, its impossible that not getting what he wanted as champion
had anything to do with the next 20 years of Fischer’s life. Absolutely impossible. |

 | | harrylime: These pages just about sum up this site !
Exploding with a%se licking toads and sychophants so much it's embarrassing... Wonder what Fischer would think looking on these pages .. lol lol |
|
May-22-13
| | TheFocus: <harry> <Wonder what Fischer would think looking on these pages> Well, the first thing he would do is ask you to leave permanently. That would clean the pages up. And you could take your LOLs with you. |
|
May-22-13
| | harrylime: The first thing he'd do is tell people like you to get lost. And the dad thing is you don't even realise that. ... LOL |

'Toly himself opined -honestly- that
Bobby wd/ beat him in a match.
He spoke on the public record.
WHY
dont our rabid FischerHaters take their Prom Queen at his own word ?? We know Principle 179 wuznt new but recycled
but Russia easily pressed FIDE
not to give in to this historical deand,
knowing Fischer wdnt waffle his Principles, so that
'Toly wd/ win the WC be default.The rewt quoted her... mere drama. That was Th Rooskies long game, so that
one corrupt group facilitated another corrupt group, & as Machiavelli wd/ bless this cojining of twin evils:
"Thus things proceed in their Circles,
& the Empire (Chess) is maintained.
Vide Super/See Above: Fischer/Karpov
was not brewing in a vacuum...
the FIDE/Russia Axis had the Recipe-Fix in
long before Principle 100 was breached.
As I sd/ before, Korchnoi sd/ if he won the WC the KGB wd/ kill him. Bobby knew that if he disgraced Russia by trashing Karpov, that wd/ be too much even for Ruissis not to poison Bobby
by radioisotopes before, during or after playing,
y
just ezzzackly as they did w/ the 1st democratically elected
President of Ukraine - Poisoned...narrowly escaping death,
but left w/ disfiguring facial scars.
They killed Raoul Wallenstein...slowly.
Killing undesirables/irritants is S.O.P & accepted.
Today we do it easily w/ drones w/ the same lack of checks. {France is buying Israeli -superior to USA models.
{Stephen hawking breathes via an custom Israeli chip

AylerKupp ~
So whaddaya think of the Beethoven stuff ??
In a very late opus he set various folk/ethnic melodies--including HEBREW !! 11 Proky wrote an overture on Hebrew melodies. &&&&cet/
Bobby & Victor knew this... |
|
| May-23-13 | | lamont: ###
Bobby & Victor know this
strayed from a re-write.
It relates to their knowing
the KGB will snuff them if they
win or get close to a win for the WC.
Remember: Putin is KGB.
Mother Russia's heart has a KGB pacemeker. |

Re/ posts:
Sloppy spelling & lacunae are due to
eyes still numb from glaucoma test
--but the bottom-line of it all:
Bobby was manipulated by a corrupt FIDE
playing footsy w/ corrupt Russia.
This power-level of synergetic EVIL
guaranteed the destruction of a career
which might have seen the eventuation
of a Dream Fischer-Karpov Match.
-He was a lost pawn in a fixed game-
All the angst & bitching of 'bitzers
-the whole turmoiled kaboodle-
izzallabout looking in all wrong places.
Selah. |

 | | HeMateMe: Bobby would have asked you guys for money, groceries, rides to chess events, use your phone, sleep in your basement. I forget what author said this, maybe Darrash: "Bobby Fischer has acquaintances, business contacts, admirerers. But, he has no friends." |
