WannaBe: <perfidious> Hehheheh I was in on of those pools, number of years; lots of fun, only 5 bux/week to enter, no one gets 'hurts'. And the house/bar buys you a beer when you participate. (They know you will sit there for just a 'few' more cold ones) Now, those elimination pools on

WannaBe: Another 'Just Curious Question', I am a fan of Michael Connelly books, them Harry Bosch and Lincoln Lawyer series. In the past, there's Scott Turow and I'm sure may others that focuses on law(er). I a curious on how realistic (aside from creative imaginations) you find ...

Mar-03-14  scormus: Hi <Wannabe>

Thanks, a game would be good, I had an excellent game with <The Last Straw> and also <Morfishine>

Not sure about joining a team game, I am playing quite a few games in another chess site and I really should not proliferate too much

BTW, <LMAJ> should have replied "Rumours of my death are a gross exaggeration"

  WannaBe: Anyone need games on GK for team match(es) ??
Mar-03-14  NakoSonorense: ¡Yo necesito!
Mar-04-14  scormus: Thanks, I normally try to play my moves within 24 hours, but I sometimes cannot get to it for a day or so. 3 days will suit me fine and I play <1. e4>
Mar-04-14  crawfb5: I can take some team games.

  WannaBe: <scormus> We'll post the position at your place. (add page count for ya!! =))

Plus, it will let members go to one page and not confuse people. :-P

Mar-05-14  scormus: OK, that's the best :)
Mar-12-14  technical draw: It looks like I will become an unpaid member of GameKnot so there will be restrictions on how many if any games I can play. I do't use credit cards so I was using PayPal. But Paypal has become harder to work with than the CIA. It use to be easy to make a deposit and pay whomever.

Now they ask so many questions and too many questions that should be irrelevant that I have decided to close my PayPal account and try #2. Anyone know who #2 is?

Mar-13-14  technical draw: <WannaBe> On GameKnot I don't play on any other team or play any invitation. Right now I have to clear um my xpress card and than go back to membership. But if you sign me up for a game and get a positive response I'll play. In any event it looks like my playing days are waning.

  WannaBe: I can see UCLA winning first 2 games, then get blown out by Florida in the Sweet 16...
Mar-16-14  Jim Bartle: Five Pac-12 teams in the tournament, a surprise to me.

  WannaBe: Errr... 6 teams, second most after Big 12 (7 teams). 5 other conferences also have 6 teams.

  WannaBe: Just found out, that UCLA's fist (err. Second Round) opponent, University of Tulsa is coached by D. Manning, of ex-Kansas U. fame and LA Clipper.
Mar-16-14  Jim Bartle: Danny Manning, what a great player. Too bad he got hurt and didn't have a great pro career.
Mar-17-14  Travis Bickle: Yo Bugs I sent you the Official site of your Oakland RAIDERZ!!

  WannaBe: Ragtime meets re-interpretation:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb9P... (This guy is GOOD!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Legz... (Same guy, but he's having way tooooo much fun, doing it)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2RZ... (Okay, it's so much fun, it should be declared illegal)

Mar-18-14  technical draw: <WannaBe> I have one team game pending, in which I'm up a piece and I lost my premium membership (or rather I did not renew it). So if it's possible set me up for some poor man's team game.
