gwnn and I would like to play on the 29th and we would be very happy to have FrancesHinden and partner as teammates. Would that be alright for everyone (especially MrAce and FrancesHinden)?

If you need two, I can ask my other partner Mark Leonard (markleon) who also occasionally posts on the forums. We have an important match the weekend of 5/13, so it would be great to get some practice in 4/29 or 5/6.

Yes, this is fine with the peanut gallery. :)

Actually, this would be extremely cool. If the 29th doesn't work out, maybe you can get lalldonn after the trials.

Sure bro, not a problem at all. Granted.

I've been asked to confirm we're still available on the 29th April, which we are: our BBO ids are Finch + Mayors.
Having not played in one of these before, I assume (given that gnasher & catch22 play) that our midchart system is not a problem. (no BSC, no HUMs but loads of artificiality after a 1-level opening)

I would say you have dibs on #9 then.

BBF vs JEC #8 29th

Gwnn-Mgoetze

Finch-Mayors


If plan changes and someone cant make it, please let me know early.

Good luck ladies and gentleman :)

I have a feeling that we need a "Lady Power" to get our first victory vs JEC. I will write Finch-Mayor sitting at JEC table.

Damn, we made it to board 25. Then we lost 11 IMPs on the last 3 boards for a total of 32-41.
