To answer your question, I invited everyone to seek out opponents, but you were the only person who ever did so. I personally found it a big help.

Keep on rockin'.

looking for opponents

Message:

Its a good idea, you have my support. we are a team and if you can help to arrange matches then you are doing a great job for improve the team. I ha s seem this in others teams, they meet players in tournaments or casual games and later they talk to them team captains for arrange matches. All these kind of arranges are welcome.

Pat's new plan

Message:
From starting next year, I ll have no more much time to dedicate to GK but all the same I want to play 20 games subdivided as follows:
6 couples of team games (12 games B and W)
8 games for mini-tournament and GK tournament
If possible I would like to keep always 12 team games contemporarely so to recover the points loosed in my last 5 bad games (sorry...)
I ll however be happy to accept all the challenges from the B.I.A members but... only from B.I.A members:)
I make the most of this for give you all the best wishes for Cristmas and for New year
Pat

Message:
Have you checked out the team games limiting function? You can set your max team games. Because I am playing fewer games altogether over the next few months, I limited mine to 6 or 8.

Happy holidays and best of luck to everyone.

If you can

Message:
I think you might want to cancel the challenge to team "unknown". There is an extensive thread about cheating located on the GameKnot releated page. Achillesheel can comment further as he has some responses there.

Message:
I didn't see a challenge against them in our active games list. FYI everyone, another captain posted to the forums some discussions from Team Unknown's external internet site in which they discussed helping one another out during team games and solicited advice from one another. We should stay away from them.

Beer & Chess

Message:
Don't mix. I had a decisive advantage in my recent game against astinkyfart. He managed to get a draw by perpetual check. Having tipped a few too many, I resigned the game instead of extending the draw! A point we sorely need (and 10 points off my rating!). Sorry team. A cautionary tale about beer and chess.

I Agree Scott

Message:
Our last team match began Dec. 15. Several of us have no games right now. I see our rating is improving somewhat, but our points are not changing much and others are starting to pass us by because we have no games to win.

By the way, team unknown changed its name to Woodpushers. Beware of them and their reported cheating.

Message:
I am very sorry to see you leave the team. For those of you who do not know, when my brother (achillestendonitis) and I decided to start this team I happened to be playing Angelica. I invited her and her brother escariot to the team, and they were our first members. She was crazy with enthusiasm, which shows in the extraordinary number of team games she won. I am sorry to see you leave the team, A. Best of luck to you.

Taking A Break From Team Play

Message:
In case anyone notices that I have no games, it is by choice. I have lost my last 4 team games, including two that I should have won (one just moments ago by the stupidest oversight to a player than a month ago I can safely say I would have beaten easily). I am in the process of buying a house and my family is moving a few weeks from now to a new town. I will follow a few weeks later when I will begin a new job. I am on the worst losing streak since I have been on GK (from a rating of 1421 to 1287 in a month!). I am not concentrating, and have cost the team unnecessary points.

But I will be back in a couple of months and ready to play. I have cut my personal games to fewer than 10 and will keep things that way until then.

I post only so that if anyone sees I am not playing team games, they understand it is by choice and only for a short time.

Best of luck to everyone in the meantime. I'm glad to see we are getting (and winning) more games. See everyone in a couple of months.

Matt

Hello everyone

Message:
Thanks for the welcome from the old team members... its appreciated. I only found out there was a forum for the team after patagusto brought it under my attention... thanks. By reading through some of the messages it seems as there is a nice team spirit running... nice to see that. I will try my best and hope that I won't let the team down in my team games.
