Counting votes is harder then playing Kasparov himself!

OK, then we need one person to switch from ...a5 to ...g6 to get the deadlock we need. Come Miguel, join us on the darkside. We know you never liked ...a5 anyway .

-Sam

i think g6 is now in the lead
Someone please verify this
Squinting Regards
Steve

I'll look now for you.

a5 is in the lead with 4 votes.

g6 is a completely lousy move. Why would he want to switch anyway? If he did the move would be a tie.

g6 must be played after 15...a5 16.Bd3

[Graham Banks]

Tano changed the thread title to move 16 for some reason
it is still move 15
the vote is tied at 4-4 unless Sam is changing his move from 15..Be4 to 15..a5

Deadlocked Regards
Steve

I will stubbornly stay with 15...g6 for now, so the vote is 4-4-1 .

-Sam

Sam you voted for 15..Be4 so if you swtich to 15..g6 now the vote is 3-4-1

How much longer do we have for the move Steve?

technically about 5.5 hours as i write this
but there is no strict time control
whatever time it takes to get a clear leading move
Steve

This is the current tally:

Be4 - Matthias, Andranik, Ray(if he doesn't withdraw his vote)
a5 - Christopher, Gerold, Miguel
g6 - Tano, Sam, Graham

The problem is that we have no agreement like

- write only your move
- then skip a line
- then write your bla bla bla.

or

- say you have changed your mind from "move xxx" to "move yyy"
- then skip a line
- then write your bla bla bla.

But I doubt it will play Bd3 Tano-urayoan

[Steve B]

I'll look now for you.

a5 is in the lead with 4 votes.

how about the other moves?
a5-4
Be4-?
g6-?

Graham if you can double check Chris's Count then we can have a confiramtion
Thanks Chris
Steve

[Graham Banks]

a5 is in the lead with 4 votes.

Who is the fourth vote? I see only three - you, Gerold and Miguel.
I currently see a three way tie between a5, Be4 and g6.

That's why you need a captain.....

LOL

Very funny thanks Matthias.

After 15...Be4; 16.Bd3, Bxd3; 17.cd, I think that we should play the g6 followed by Qa5 plan anyway. Might be okay actually because White has to decide what to do about his a pawn situation. That would allow us to contest the open files.

If Be4 white does not need to play Bd3. Anyway 15...Be4 16. Bd3 BxB 17.cxB g6 18.Qe2 Qa5 19.a3 (b3) (∆Rfc1)±
