Do you accept Fonzy as referee? If he agrees of course - would not blame him if he does not. However I find it strange that you will not accept Steve or Graham, 2 people of integrity.

We don't need a referee. Are you saying these people would cheat?
If we got anymore acceptors from the emails we sent we would let you know provided that there was no conflict of interest.

Are you saying that other CCC members can not join and they are all happy with that? I have seen several post in this thread that they are not including Charles - will he stay a member after your reply to him? Henrik your vice Captain also posted his concerns. Let's see..... IMHO the team should be open to all CCC members - if you do not want them they are welcome to join our team.

Yep - not my decision but we have a waiting list so we can just move to the next game.
So you resign?
funny you deleted your last post that I was trying to reply to. It is not within my power to resign but would I personally rather resign than play against a team captained by you - without a doubt yes.

Hey, I am tickled to see I was one of the SECRET SEVEN . I didn't even know. Its too bad Harvey decided to call things off because of his consternation over how CCC was organizing itself. Which may be partially my fault since I made the suggestion we organize things like a traditional newspaper vs. Grandmaster style match in the first place (small team figures out candidate moves with private analysis, and then presents to public for voting). Oh well. It was kind of looking like things were going to reduce to rule quibbling instead of chess anyway. And I can see why...once they saw we had a team full of amateurs like myself they knew they were in a no win situation (who wants to lose to a team powered by the analysis of LearningLemming and Telepath)?

I deleted it because it contained my reply to James at Hiarcs which would not post there.
I found the reason why so i deleted it from here. Is that OK with you Batman?
Moral of this story is....
Never ever play a friendly game with a forum about a commercial product as they do not see it as friendly.
It is not a matter of life and death. It is much more important to them than that.
We await the surrender of your captain. Until then we will post the first move on the appointed day. If you don't reply you WILL LOSE by default.

You really are a joke. All our team members do their own thing. Do you think we can tell Gm's and IM's what engine to use. We have several Rybka forum members in our team and they are welcome.
Well as far as I see it you have 7 days to make your 1st move and allow a referee - wow that is really tough to accept.
