One essence of chess... Good opening! I'm in.
 
Thanks

we had one of those several years ago and White was losing most games very badly.I forget though exactly where we started from

I'd like to play in this one.

I'm in.
Tknight

On this one, we won't start from a lost position at least.

Is there some way to just put me on a permanent "I'm in" marker for these MOTs?
 
I'm in.

I would like to play in this MOT.Is there one more spot?

You can apply until 30th of june.

I am in!
 
and
I am out!

me too

ill give it a go. Sud, you can fill me in on the rules.

You just need to challenge every player twice, you must play one game with white and one with black. I will do a crosstable at the end of june to see how many players will participate.

Once you know that, you just go to "corres games"
-go to "challenges"
-go to "show advandced options"
-challenge everybody twice (you can state the openings moves as well in the "comments" box)

Don't change the time control we always use this one

"In my opinion the King's Gambit is busted. It loses by force." -- R. Fischer

Here is our chance to defeat , with black, players like Gladiator and Jaume! Lol!

Well Bobby you can challenge me anytime you want.

Your argument is with Fischer. You are on. King's Gambit Accepted? One game each. Standard 20/30? If you get in trouble seek out a Scot or an Irishman to help you. They have won all your wars; I am sure some of them play chess

i don't remember what variation we played before of this but White was losing horribly.Perhaps 1 e4 e5 2 f4 exf4 is viable.I don't know until I research it but whatever variation we played before just flat out lost for White

You accepted my challenge with you as white and refused my chance to play white. Black has 42.7 to 35% edge in 1100 games at Chessgames. So why don't you accept my challenge with us EACH playing one game as white? In you MOT you say play 2 but in private you refuse an equal match. Typical limey...

Count me in. Thanks
