There is this fantastic and rewarding feeling that everything makes sense in Chess, that all truth is suddenly revealed by the chessmen on the board even though they cannot articulate it. For those of us who love chess, it is this, not the mere defeating of an opponent, that matters, although the team was #6 of 278 teams in GK on April 20th, 2006. This is why we play, why we devote countless hours to studying the mysteries of the game, which even after 1500 years or so have not been worked out by man or machine. ✠ Our ~✠~KNIGHTS TEMPLAR ~✠~ team aspires to foster a cosmopolitan society in which differences among peoples, cultures, and personalities will be both respected and appreciated. We seek the betterment of our players through chess education, world brotherhood, chivalric principles, and civil behavior and treatment among one another and towards opposing teams. We aim at engaging the respect and credibility of our GK membership with honor, honesty, civility, tolerance, care for our fellowman, throughout our individual nations and throughout the GK community. In our hearts, we believe we are the best team in GameKnot, second to none... ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ✠✠✠✠✠✠ ✠✠✠ ♖♘♗♕♔♗♘♖♖♘♗♕♔♗♘♖♖♘♗♕♔♗♘♖♖♘♗♕♔♗♘♖♖♘♗♕♔♗♘♖ ************************************************************** A NOTE TO OUR OPPONENTS: We here at ~*Knights Templar*~ realize that you are playing an actual human that you cannot see, and; that you may as well be playing a computer if you cannot observe something of our individual natures.
