| a_professional_idiot 2/23/2007 08:27:52 [ report this post ] | Message: Private message from starcheck: Hello, a_professional_idiot! As of 2/22/07 I've formed a new team on GK. Please read my bio and look at team ~~Reality Check!~~ -> gameknot.com I see you are happily ensconced on another team so consider this letter as an appeal to submit names of potential members, or friends, who might fit the ~~Reality Check!~~ team profile. All help truly appreciated. Happy chessing and thanks for your consideration, Maria (aka "Starcheck") -------------------------------- So how do I respond to this? I will combine all the best answers. |
| grandphish 2/23/2007 09:39:35 [ report this post ] | ~~Reality Check!~~ Message: Get a Reality Check, starcheck. Since I am "happily ensconced" with a team, as you suggest, why would I recommend friends to another team such as yours. There is a traditional place to announce the formation of a new team and recruit new members - the Team Forum. You can find it here: -> gameknot.com You may also have success by inviting non-aligned players to join your team rather than contacting "happily ensconced" teammembers. |
