TeleChess
The Internet portal TeleSchach had its first beginnings in 1995 and 1996.
history
From the spring of 1995, after his retirement, operational Gerhard dog the Chess Forum of Cyber City Cologne . In 1996 he organized the 1st TeleSchess Championship of CyberCity. He made the preparations for this in autumn 1995, during which he discussed e-mail tournaments with Fritz Baumbach . At that time, the Association of German Correspondence Chess Friends did not want to organize any e-mail tournaments, and ChessBase only offered online tournaments on a chess server later.
From April 1996 TeleSchach was not only represented on the Internet in Germany , but worldwide on the Internet . In 1996 he was the only one in the world to report daily on the World Chess Championship in Bad Liebenzell . Mark Crowther ( The Week in Chess ) reported several times on TeleSchach and in 1997 brought the announcement of the Senior World Championship and the results.
