WannaBe: No inquery, so... Fun info, horses born in N. Hemisphere are all registered Jan 1 as birthday, S. Hemisphere all Aug 1. This makes age restricted races (e.g. Triple Crown races are limited to 3-years old <ONLY>) easier to manage. Now on to them LAD and Red Birds.

WannaBe: < perfidious: At least the username User: Bishoprick is displayed in full, unlike that of User: farticchio, whose content is automatically blocked from the kibitzing page cos of someone's fixation on the first four letters of the name. Perhaps the user should have been informed ...

  WannaBe: First, white has a team name, do we need a one?

Second, since we're playing black. What are some of our black-side strength?

for e4 I always play Sicilian, but Pirc is okay with me.

for d4 I always play KID.

for English, Polish, Nimz-Larsen, I play e5.

These are my strongest replies to the white's possibilities. =)

Jan-11-06  NakoSonorense: it'd be nice if we chose a team name, wouldnt it? Any suggestions?
Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: Me 2.
Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: I suggest team Sitzkrieg:DDD
Jan-11-06  Robin01: I normally answer with c5 against e5 and get into some type of sicilian. Against d4 I usually play Nf6 and see what develops, however, usually end up in some type of queen gambit or slav. Now, those are my strengths, but I enjoy playing all different types of positions.
Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: Black repertoire for me; sicilian taimanov, caro kann, grunfeld and occasional KI; so "compatible" with wannabe
Jan-11-06  Robin01: How about the White Knights. That should confuse them, since we are playing black.
Jan-11-06  NakoSonorense: My votes:

for 1.e4 - c5 [sicilian]
for 1.d4 - f5 [dutch]
for 1.c4 - e5 [dont know the name of this]

Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: Enemy team members should no longer come here when we discuss moves tho..
Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: Lol RObin
Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: <The Dark horses>??
Jan-11-06  NakoSonorense: The Dark Horses works for me!
Jan-11-06  Robin01: The Dark Horses is fine.
Jan-11-06  NakoSonorense: I have to leave now. If white starts with something different than e4, d4, c4, then I'll vote for the exact opposite of wannabe's choice. :)

I'll be back in a few hours. Have fun!

  WannaBe: =) we were just going over our strength for moves against white openings.
Jan-11-06  RonB52734: "Dark Horses" works for me; and I endorse WannaBe's opening choices
Jan-11-06  Robin01: I must also leave for a couple of hours. Work calls.
Jan-11-06  Robin01: WannaBe's opening choice are fine. So is the Dutch.
Jan-11-06  sitzkrieg: Lol. And i will have to leave in a couple of hours. We gonna work in shifts?

  WannaBe: preferrably all of us can be here to decide. Unfortunately that may not be possible at times. We'll have to do the best we can, either leave a post w/ the choice move, or?

  WannaBe: <RonB52734> I agree. Until majority (3) votes is reached, we wait for other team members' input.
Jan-11-06  RonB52734: <sitzkrieg> <We gonna work in shifts?> I think we have to be a majority to move; each of us just has to check back here and at the game as he or she can to see where things stand.

Also, I think it's best when actually voting on a move (once the game begins) to post the vote on the game page.
