INTERNATIONAL JUDGE FOR CHESS COMPOSITION

A title created by FIDE in 1956 to those who have judged composing tournaments to the satisfaction of a committee appointed by the WFCC.

No player, however strong, no member, however large, shall stand above FIDE Florencio Campomanes
” (about Lasker) For me, this personality, notwithstanding his fundamentally optimistic attitude, had a tragic note. The enormous mental resilience, without which no chess player can exist, was so much taken up by chess that he could never free his mind of this game, even when he was occupied by philosophical and humanitarian questions.” Albert Einstein
Good players actually use their long-term memory much more than inexperienced players, who use their short-term memory. Good players try to recall patterns. Magnus Carlsen 2016

I personally believe that Karpov should have been more generous with Kirsan Ilyumzhinov. Kirsan is the only president in the history of FIDE, and maybe in the history of all international federations, who has contributed dozens of million dollars for the sport he loves. By the way, some of these millions went directly to Anatoly’s pocket… George Makropoulos
