Once again we are looking for representatives to play vs. the JEC team on Saturday, October 27th at 11:00 PDT / 14:00 EDT / 18:00 UTC / 20:00 CEST. Who's up for it?

Note to self: last weekend where everyone is on DST.

Perhaps this should be in BBF vs. JEC #23, but I believe I have a full team for November 3. It would be awm-sieong and elianna-mbodell, if this is okay mgoetze.

If I was the partner you were talking about I would be glad to play again, if George will have me of course. :P

Have played in quite a few recently though. Each time I thought we got a little closer so maybe this is the lucky/skilled one? :)

Just need to check about what time I get home on Saturday. Should be good to play if that is the plan. :)

Well, we lost by an even number. The result could have been very different if our teammates were playing, unfortunately they
were left out of the match :(

My partner and I are getting together tomorrow to go over the boards, I will post my blunders after that.
