Re: g/2 live tournament starts on Wednesday

I've only seen Spud on so far ... I've emailed everyone asking what their best opportunities are ... any more takers? Any suggestions on when you'd like me online so we can play?

I know my live ranking is somewhat daunting to most of you ...

Re: g/2 live tournament starts on Wednesday

I have been on a lot. Never see anyone on. I challenge jaume when he was on but he did not reply. Remember to make sure you are challengable at G/2. I will be on again tonight and would like to get some of my games played.

Re: g/2 live tournament starts on Wednesday

I just got incredibly lucky against kastelka ... he timed out twice, and he certainly had me beat the first game. I think I had four seconds to spare. The second game was much more even, but I was able to confuse him long enough by throwing pieces at him in ways he didn't expect. :)

So far, undefeated! :)

(yes, I realize that now everyone will gun for me. Is okay. It's my moment in the sun. :)

Re: g/2 live tournament starts on Wednesday

LongAgo, when you get a chance, please correct my record ... I wasn't 0-2, I was 2-0. Now I'm 4-0.

Doorman ... I figure I've got all the wins I'm going to get out of this tourney, but I do look forward to our matches. :)

I am on travel over the holidays, until 1 Jan, so you might not see me online. But if you do, I'm ready to play.

Too late, Doorman! Jaume just took me both ways! (and I mean that without any other connotations. :)

Re: g/2 live tournament starts on Wednesday

I've been challenge-able at G/2 since the before the tourney started ... I simply have my # of live games limit set to 1, so if I'm already in a live game, your challenge won't get through.

I continue to pursue an opportunity to find you online, LongAgo. I'll be on again at 3 p.m. today, and various points afterward, looking for you.
Doorman is another issue, as he's got admin probs.
