Assorted N.P. Team News

[Narz]

I'm not good enough for that - unless you want me in.

You can join any team match you like! I always strive to let everyone play who wants to play, it's not all about winning.

I accepted another team match somewhat by accident. I meant to accept it on behalf of another team.

Also, our speed vote match has begun : http://www.chess.com/votechess/game.html?id=22806330

I hope we don't time out!

We've advanced to the next round in our 2nd vote chess tournament (the 1 game at a time, 24 hour one that we played round 1 vs. PowerOfChess) and are now facing the 1.b3 Nimzo-Larsen Attack group. We play black, I imagine they will play 1. b3.

Game is here

Started a couple more team matches after all. I wasn't planning to but 1badmf said he wanted to play in some more team games. No pressure to join (of course you're welcome if you want to), I know many of our best minds are focused on round 2 of the CFC tourney & other tournaments.

Next speed vote match will be next Wed, July 8th, 3PM GMT.

We lost our first long-time-control vote game against Chess Team International.

and this one against Team Canada is completely lost.

However, out of our remaining five long vote games, one has just begun, another three are won games (though in two we are only up a pawn) and the fifth (against the Indian Marauders) is pretty tight (we may be at some disadvantage but it's still anyone's game).

If you're interested in playing in our Speed Vote Chess league this Sunday or Monday please check out this thread.

Also, if you have any new avatar ideas please let me know! We could continue with the spearman vs. tank theme or switch around to something different. I lost a few new avatars I'd created during a computer crash but I like to see everything as an opportunity to recreate better.

 

[Narz]

It's with with Team Holland tomorrow at 3PM GMT. Be there on the squares!

I'm not sure I'll be able to stick around but I'll try to pop in as often as I can!

 

[Narz]

Sounds good Mehmed! Any presence of CFC's '07-'08 champ is better than none!

We won (on time unfortunately), was an exciting game while it lasted though.
