Well can't anyone find a Fide player and make a username with their name? Send that profile pic to admin@fide.com
I'm not doubting you, but other could.

Originally posted by tommybearWell then you have nothing to worry about. If David knows you, he is the lead game mod, and you won't be banned without his 100% certainty that you should be. 🙂

Originally posted by WildfireAgree.. If Tommy is on the level then there should be no question that he is a FIDE Master. But to post "someone's" rating doesn't give any credit to us - the general membership. However, the mods could easily check this out and determine if it's legit or not.
I just noticed that the card says Belgium, yet you live in the U.S.? Is that normal?

Originally posted by tommybearA 2345 FIDE rating would place you close to the top 100 rated players in the US (currently 2371).

I knew it was going to happen it was only a matter of time, I have been accused of cheating by an opponent who shall remain unnamed...they are continuously messaging me saying you cheat...in the intrest of fairness I am opening this thread in the hopes that this accusation can be laid to rest. As I have not been cheating it upsets me that jealous people wo ...[text shortened]... e I ask that all of my games be looked at and actions be taken accordingly.
Thank you

Originally posted by BLReidDon't hold your breath waiting for Dave to publicly do either. I searched last night for an e-mail address for the Belguim Chess Federation to see if I could get in touch with the real Tom Piceu, but most of the links don't work. If anybody could direct me to a site or give me a e-mail address for the Belguim Chess Federation we could expose this mini -"Yasser Seirawan" once and for all.

EDIT: Nevermind; I found an e-mail address for the head of the Belguim Chess federation and sent him this e-mail (hope he speaks English):
Dear Sir:
I am a player on an internet chess correspondence site, RedHotPawn (don't ask). Recently a player using the name TommyBear has claimed to be the FIDE Master from your country, Tom Piceu. He claims that as Mr. Piceu he is now living in the state of New Hampshire in the US and working as a car salesman. Without invading Mr. Piceu's privacy in any way, I was wondering if there is any way you could check to see if such information is accurate as I suspect TommyBear to be an impostor. I would greatly appreciate any help you could give in this matter.
Fair enough?

Originally posted by tommybearI've checked my records and I'm pretty sure that I've never played anyone called Tom Piceu. So I'd be very interested to know about these OTB games that I'm supposed to have won.
