Soren
Nice win in your last game. Seems Remco have no time for chess these days and he has lost by timeout. Greetings Carlos

Chessfriendly Yours, Daniel

Wherever You Think I Will Score Best
I am playing for fun and comradeship, so I am happy to play whichever board the rest of you believe will give us the best team score. As most of you know, I play very solidly with White and rarely lose (only GK loss with White was a timeout) but play more riskily for wins with Black (Alekhine, Scandinavian, Benko, etc.) and sometimes lose/sometimes win. Which board would my style work best on? Loren

Board orders
Dear Chessfriends, First of all I would like to welcome Loren fmgaijin to our great Team and thank you for joining us Loren I'm sure you will fit perfectly in to our Team. The last two seasons in Champions League I have had the honor of playing 1st. board for our Team. I think it is time to change the board order and especial if you look at the results the last two seasons, it is only naturally I suggest the following board orders: 1st board carlosmart (he have made absolutely outstanding results) 2nd board fmgaijin (his playing style and knowledge is superb and will fit spot on) 3rd board cairo (perhaps I then can avoid a loss this time) 4th board harpov (Hans will wipe the board here) I truly believe the above set-up would be fantastic and I'm really looking forward to the new season! Amici sumus Søren

Board Orders
I think Daniel, our captain, knows all members so well. He has played with all a lot of times. Then, would be better Daniel choose the right order. Anyway, the highest quality of whole members of them is enough for promoting next level. Sorry but these days i am absolutely busy at work until first days of december. Carlos

Thanks Loren for joining our team. You will fit perfectly in to our Team. Absolutely sure. Carlos

Good Job, Hans!
That means we still have a chance for B Group, I think? Loren

I
believe Loren is correct, it should open up for that possibility, I'm sure our Captain Daniel are on top of that! Good result Hans and it ends our campaign for the 2007 - 2009 season of The Champions League like this: Board 4 Nestorix +1-6=3 2½ points and 0 game remaining. Board 3 Carlosmart +4-0=6 7 points and 0 game remaining. Board 2 Harpov +3-1=5 6 points and 0 game remaining. Board 1 Cairo +4-1=5 6½ points and 0 games remaining. Total: +12-8=20 22 points and 1 game remaining. Thank you for the efforts from all our players! Best wishes Cairo

Just a Thought
Perhaps it makes a difference whether we are in Group B or Group C, nicht wahr? That is, because we have a rather small range of playing strengths compared to some of the other teams in C (For example, I have a small plus score against each of you but have also lost a nice game to Carlos and have had narrow escapes against Soren and Hans and most of your results against each other are similarly clsoe). If so, in B we might need to "sacrifice" a player on a high board (probably a very solid player who might escape with many draws?) to score better on the bottom boards. Looking at the opponents' ratings in C, it seems as if we should do well on the bottom boards with any of us and likewise any of us should do fine on the top boards (though scoring a bit less, perhkaps, just like last season). Your Friend in Caissa, Loren
