C'mon, Battle Brenna--we need a Xena or the tournament is doomed to smell like a locker room.

haha. you used me and civilizing in the same thought. Yes, mind stunned, gait disturbed: mere anarchy is loosed upon the world. I like it like that.
also, my bet is i smell worse than you. ask the spider. i am my father's daughter. Worse, better--phooey! Girl scents are like Girl Scout cookies, boy scents like coyote spoor. It's scientific. So come play.

Wounded King writes me:
quote: Yeah, I like it more than chess, too. I had an uncle who loved chess and he taught me to play as a kid, but I always liked card games a lot more. I've played spades and hearts since I was a teen, so the mechanics of bridge weren't too difficult to learn. But the auction phase of the game really takes a lot of time to understand, let alone master. I'm still not very good, but I have improved somewhat at no-trump bidding. Even as hard as it is, though, bridge is more fun to play than any other card or board game I know of. I love it! W.W.E.D.?

title says it all. granted, considering we have members from across the world, it ain't exactly fair to say that sign up ends 12:00pm mountain time (36 hours from the time stamp on this post).
so, you all have 36 hours remaining. then we just have to pair people up, and the tourney should start by friday. I'll do 12 hour updates on time remaining. (or try to, at any rate). oh, and that was a good last game, omni. I should not have gone for your bishop.

I started playing on that site a few months ago, so you can tell I don't cheat because my rating there is both consistent and mediocre!!
My name on there is eratic, which would've been a good name for a chess player if I'd noticed the typo before I clicked the submit button!!! I'm in if you want me, but only unrated games.

only unrated. i have a rating of 1442ish that I'd like to keep.
we don't care how good you are--if you want to play, that's all that's required.

Fine! A suggestion for the tournament might be that we can all play several games at once. Because it's 3 day chess, it would take ages for all participants to have played each other if we just play one game at a time, and if you go into the site, why not make several moves on different games at the same time?
