Hello, all
 
Soon, I am planning to start a new MOT. Each player needs
to play 2 games against each other in this tournament. I
wish to state that the time limit will be a typical one
for corres games, you don't have to change it.To challenge
someone, go to "corr games", one of the tabs of the main
screen. Select "challenges". Select "show advanced
options". You can issue a challenge by typing the name of
your opponent.
 
The speed remains the same.Challenge your opponent twice,
once with black, once with white. On the "comment" tab,you
can state the opening .
 
The opening will be totally different from the last one, the all tactical Poisoned Pawn. This time we will deal with the main line Spanish. First I wanted to do the Marshall Gambit but it's too much analysed and too drawish as well. Strategical lines are often very interesting.
 
You will start all your games with the following moves
 
1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Fb5 a6 4 Ba4 Nf6 5 0-0 Be7 6 Re1 b5 7 Bb3 0-0 8 c3 d6 9 h3! and you should reach the following position:
 
 

 
So far 15 players are on the next MOT
 
Yaman
SnoopDog176
Spud
Gladiator
NevadaMaster
DualSpace
BladeRunner
Power
Bgh

The tourney will start the 24th of december.
I hope to get as many registrations as possible before
the 23rd 2400 GMT as AdminBrian will post this
message to all Caissa members.
 
Greetings and good luck in the forthcoming games.

Please Gladiator: subsitute wanna2008 for BladeRunner...regards...

Sure, I love this movie, I have the 5 dvd edition, stunning one. Ridley Scott is a legendary director.

Directors cut, I hope!...cheeers

bgh AND bladerunner?? like WOW!
 
Now, did you SN your handle or is this another account?
 
I cannot see how to do it yet, and last I checked you could NOT change your SN. Tell me you can!

I just message Brian(the cool admin), made a request and 2 days later....Voilá

Better late than never.Been away for a week or so. Please sign me up for the Spanish MOT. Thanks, grevillea.

 ...wait a minute: 5 dvd EDITION!??? Can you tell me a little bit more about this edition? I know about the director's cut only....and happens to be one of my favorite movies....BTW I picked the name thinking in an intimidating name to "rumble" OTB and then because chess was present in Sebastian's game versus Tyrell....

This is the final cut of the movie. Type BladeRunner 5 disc on Google. You have some links to amazon.com. Apparently you can buy it on Blu Ray and HD DVD in the Us. But on amazon.co.uk, it's available with the normal DVD format. Stunning package.

Awesome!
 
Thanks for the tip Gladiator
 
I bought it right away..$69 bucks very well spent. (Merry Xmas to myself!).

Yes it's 3 Bb5

Might I suggest we all just send our White challenges to our Black opponents. This way, we don't all have 4 games against the same opponent.

Yes a very good suggestion. A bit too late for me but it should be better...
