Yes. Because some of us (me) are glory hogs who want to try and announce to the world that someone they know about dies.

Vague is a high underestimation made about Mr. Fischer. Bobby Fischer was a legend and a great chess player. He didn't just graze the chess world, but has made an impact on it. Especially during his younger years. Last time I checked, this was a competitive fighting forum. Chess is also a part of that in a way. There's nothing vague about his status. He deserves a thread.

Well said, my thoughts exactly :nunchuck:
