I had been working on a software package to allow players to play games on the site but I haven’t had much chance to modify it fully to my liking. So until I get that finished, I thought I would ask if anyone would be interested in e-mail chess? Or even via mail if that [...]

I just wanted to let everyone know that I’m still working on the tournament. I have finalized on March 28th as a date that I think will provide a good time to the most people, is far enough out to give ample preparation and conflicts the least with other regional events.
That said, I don’t yet [...]

I wanted to give a quick update on what is going on. On the 27th I officially became a certified Club Tournament Director so I will be able to run the tournament and submit the results for the Joplin Chess Club affiliate once I am authorized to do so through the affiliate.
Also, I have sent [...]

I don’t have any official word on Joplin Chess Club meetings. Though, based on the [...]

[ December 21, 2008; 8:00 am; ] This last Saturday a Kansas Scholastic Chess Association tournament was held in Columbus, KS at the Columbus Unified High School. This was the first event put on by the KSCA that I have been to and I was extremely impressed with both the facilities and the turnout.
Tables were set up in the school hallways, with [...]

I’m going to post some endgames that I come across that I think look like they would be good endgame studies. Generally speaking these studies will come from games that I have played or have seen played that I thought would either be good to study and on some I will possibly include some of [...]

[ November 23, 2008; 5:00 pm; ] Yesterday the Joplin Chess Club hosted the Carthage Chess Open. Turnout was less than expected, at 14 participants, but that didn’t diminish the fun. Most of the players were from the Sunday and Tuesday Joplin chess groups, though we did have a member from the Crowder club in Neosho and a player from near Kansas [...]

There is another chess club starting up in town, not affiliated with the Joplin Chess Club USCF affiliate. From what I understand it is also going to be another USCF affiliate for the Joplin area. Once I know the affiliate ID I will update with that information.
It is called the PC Chess Club and is [...]
