Of course you have a vote. What move do you propose?

Our move. :P
I would stick to the plan

g3

Whenever black threats d5, we play c4. If we can break with f4 before black has a chance to counteract with f5 (or d5), we will be in great shape. For instance, if black plays Nd4, we play c4. I do not care about Nxe2, that is bad bishop anyway.
If black then plays Bh3, we can always play Nhg2... and we are rolling with f4. I like our chances.

11.g3

... because it has most votes so far.
My engine was quite strong till I added knowledge to it.

with all of the vote changes and with me posting several times on this move and perhaps confusing things a bit.. i thought i would just tally up the votes to make things a but easier for Graham to count the votes later
