New Club Moderator
I am most gratified that Freddy (easy19) has graciously decided to assume the role as a club moderator. The club's many moderators have spent a great deal of time promoting the club in their administrative roles.

Jason (tekoahbaer) was the club's first moderator. He was instrumental in initiating many of the club's activities. Unfortunately, he had to (temporarily I hope) leave Gameknot to pursue a doctorate degree. I wish him great success in this endeavor.

Rodrigo (rogubravo) has been the second moderator since September 4, 2008. As one of the club's founding administrators, he was been an invaluable member of the club with his promotion of the club and his filling other roles as requested. Rodrigo even generously helped me to fund one of the club's scholarship recipients as well.

Eddy (eqj2), the club's third moderator; he agreed to fill the role on September 25, 2008. He has also been instrumental in the promotion of the club and its activities.

Jo (doji) is the club's forth moderator. Jo has also promoted the club, been an active participant, and he has also initated many club contests / projects.

Jon (jbravo58d) was the club's fifth moderator. Jon was also very active in the club. He had to leave Gameknot a few weeks ago, and he will be greatly missed. I wish him all the best in his endeavors.

Fred (bears2) was the club's sixth moderator. Fred has been instrumental in the argent promotion of the club. Indeed, he is responsible for recruiting approximately one-third of the club's now 285+ members!

fatcat2 was the club's seventh moderator. As we all know, fatcat2 was instrumental in initating many club projects. As I iterated in a "Game of the Month" thread, fatcat2 served as an inovator, judge, coach, active participant, and he severed in many other actvilties as well. Like Jon, fatcat2 will be greatly missed. He had to leave the club and possibly Gameknot altogether.

Freddy (easy19) is the club's eigith and currently its last moderator. I am very excited about his decision to fill the administrative role. easy19 has been a club role model and an active participant as well.

All of these members have been instrumental in promoting the club. I have been given invaluable advice from them as well. They have been and continue to be one of the primary reasons the Knights of Honor Club is the most successful Gameknot club (in my humble opinion.

Kudos to all of the club's invaluable moderators!

thank you Jim
So here i am your new moderator...  

A few things that you should know about me here on Gameknot

- I always play rated games
- I love to talk during the game so at least say hallo  
- I accept any challenge that says Walking the Walk or I am a Knight of honor
- I am not easy so the odds that you will not win are high. I say do not resign on me

Wen i post a new topic on the forum the importance of that msg is shown by these markings i always use

- just a posting or a question/answer -
-- Chess related and/or of greater value to me --
--- High importance announcement or something else ----

Appreciations for the club's coaches and GOTM judges
I would also like to iterate my / our appreciation to the club's many prior and current coaches and/or mentors and Game of the Month judges. Both our club's coaches and judges invest a great deal of time and effort into their perspective roles.

I will not disclose the names of our club's coaches for privacy and obvious other reasons. However, they need to be recognized for their contributions to the betterment of our members as well as the club's continued success. The club has been blessed with a total of 22 coaches and/or mentors, many of which are still in active roles as trainers. Moreover, thus far, 39 members have been coached and/or mentored not including members who have left the club.

The club has also been blessed with a number of GOTM judges who as I have witnessed, also set aside much time from their busy schedules to judge the many games entered from month to month. Our current judges are kendo-ka, untateve, brigadecommander, easy19, antagonistknight, oldgus (new moderator), concordborn, and pawnstart2010. Former judges were fatcat2 (orginator and moderator), damalfi, and jbravo58d, who are not longer Gameknot subscribers and will be greatly missed.

This club has been very welcoming and constructive for me so far. I thought I should step it up and see if I could do something to help the club in return. Best of luck in all your games!
