I think Gerold changed to d3, which if true would mean
Rc1 - Andranik, Matthias
Be2 - Graham
d3 - Steve B, Gerold
Can I join? I just can't sleep again so got some time to think!
I'm for Graham's plan 'Bishop to e2'
Absolutely, the more people the better !
There is about another 8 hours left for this vote
I think this is where we are:
Rc1 - Andranik, Matthias
Be2 - Graham, Denis
a2-a3 - Gerold
d2-d3 - Steve B
Nd3 - Guenther
OR, if Gerold did change his vote which I'm not sure about
Rc1 - Andranik, Matthias
Be2 - Graham, Denis
d2-d3 - Steve B, Gerold
Nd3 - Guenther

Since Steve B is a mod, could he update the diagram in the first post of some thread... perhaps this thread with your permission... it makes things easier to follow the game.

If nobody else votes before you're ready Ray, I'm prepared to switch to 6.d3 to break the tie (even though I still prefer 6.Be2).

OK, Gerold has confirmed his vote, so we have:
Rc1 - Andranik, Matthias
Be2 - Graham, Denis
d2-d3 - Steve B, Gerold
Nd3 - Guenther
a 3-way tie
I'll wait a bit and see if another vote comes along. (Swami, you could vote you know !) As a reminder, the position is:
[d] qrbb1rk1/pp2pppp/2pn1n2/3p4/8/1P2PN2/PBPP1PPP/QR1BNRK1 w - -

Sure would
Actually i offered to do that at the begginning of the game
probably a good idea for the current pgn to be updated as well
the pgn allows anyone to replay the game on any pgn reader(and Computer Chess Gui's )
could someone post the current pgn (with header) and i will also keep it current in the lead post as the game progesses??

I made a post here
http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29842
to see if we can break the voting tie without anyone having to change their vote, and with the intention of snaring a couple more regular participants perhaps
