How is your group open if people request and do not automatically get to enter?

Our 7 is certainly better than your 18 trolls. At least we know who they are.....

:lol:
We could for eg. ask the neutral person if they are already in your team. This has been known to happen. anyway CCC do you accept a Secret 7?
If we must accept your 18 trolls, you will have to accept our team of 7 members.

Sounds fine...whatever our Captain wants I am in favor of. Those that do the work make the rules. Seems like people should be able to do it however they want in either forum. I doubt our team Captain will be turning down many people if they want to regularly throw their two cent in unless there is an obvious conflict of interest. You seem to be worrying about it too much...I expect our team will be pretty casual in our analysis, will contain mostly mediocre chess talents, and should be relatively easy pickings for you without you having to negotiate so hard and long about conditions.

why do you call a team of 1 Correspondence GM Tony Hedlund
Auryn Senior International Correspondence Master (Eros ricco)
David Overton - British correspondence Master
Harvey williamson - British Correspondence Master and winner of the British championship (with 2 IM norms)
Watchman - Rob Osborne
Sebastian Boehme
Soren Rees - with an over the board IM norm

trolls?

Some of our team members do not want there names made public. But as was suggested earlier we are happy to exchange names with Captains if you accept the referee/neutral person.

Auryn is one of only 2 people to beat the cluster Rybka - we also have highendman who has beaten it 3 times - I know his real name and would share with the Captain if we can get past the referee.

I agree Sam....but you must remember he is a "headbanger".

errr...you should definitely stop worrying about conditions and just play. Your talent level is extreme compared to anything I expect CCC to put together.

I am sure we will give them a decent game......you never know.

They seem a little too competitive to be thought of as those who are enjoying a game although.

Imagine the embarrassment if we actually beat them. Now that would be really funny after they destroyed my Saturday.

Yes, Secret 7 is just fine. They are clearly the ones that have committed substantial time and effort to it

So it should be completely closed to all other CCC members and all private discussion on the Arena forum? Sound like we are playing the Arena forum.
