there's a bloke called Chris Prufrock - but unless you've radically changed your look, this isn't you..

I've found Jimbo and Dan, but no revnev. Perhaps I'm on the wrong site - I'm at chess.com as MontrealWanderer.

I'll set a group up, but it looks like mrkint has a Wanderers group already, though that might have been one he made ages ago with...other folk.

I accepted your invitation. Revnev still hiding but I've not paid for "full access".

The idea of an online league is good though. I'm utterly shite having not really played since primary school, but I could do with humbling given how I'm pissing all over the fantasy football and hammered Pool Pro Kinty at the Big Red a while back :D. I'm PrufrockBW. What do I do now?
You meet me outside the chippy of your choice, ya big wuss. :Jedi:
you still thinking spotty??
Sort of, as in not really right now as I'm pretty much drunk, and I'm NOT going to make the mistake of putting up a move in this state... Tomorrow, I'll be back.
But, I've had s brilliant idea meanwhile to stop the innumerable whinge-merchants of doom. How'saboot what if we post each move but instead of having a new post, one just edits one's previous post... Ta da. Feckin brilliant Reckon if I say so myself.

Not to take away the pen 'n paper fun of it, but matches can be watched on the site. They also save the move-list during and after the game.

But by all means, carry on. Sure I don't even know chess notation :D

I'm not much good on the algebraic notation - prefer the older one even if it takes more space.

Jakers, that's what I meant before, but I'm not that constructive. Folk should should stick up an after game list, which means it's all there, but not in running commentary form.

I can find Kinty, and Dan, but noone else. Don't know if maybe it's case specific, but I'm PrufrockBW.

Can someone set up a tournament that we can find?

I'll be putting up me 'n mrkint's game after. Boy does that guy like to attack from minute 1...

Are you sure you're on the right website? I checked for PrufrockBW, came up with zip.

I can't create a group as I'm not a premium (paying) member. The rest of the site seems pretty open though.

i have tried PrufrockBW several times but found nothing..

am currently engaged in combat with kinty - he was right up my drainpipe before we'd even completed the formalities!! :-)

I'm not thebish (as someone is already that) - but revnev

Game against some random Swiss last night. (For anyone interested.)
He had me done like a kipper after some silly mistakes early on but managed to win with a little help from the suicide squad.

Frankly wish I had money to get boozed up Friday night, but you take what you're given eh. :D

Yeah, totally hadn't done the validation email thing. Should be on there now.

Can't start a tournament unless you are a premium member though :(.
