An important difference between you two is that you opened to Venice in the spring of 1901, while xorxes opened to Venice in the autumn, presumably because of what he saw on the board (Austria being in Galicia and Rumania and Russia being in Silesia and St. Petersburg).
Good observation. His play was probably ultimately much smarter, and I'll keep it in mind if I ever decide to open against Austria ever again. Mine was a little more balls to the wall hoping for the best.

Still looking for people (not already in the tournament) who are interested in subbing. I can offer points and cookies as incentives, though no promises on the quality of the latter.

ghug, tried to send you a private message...but both messages are stuck in the outbox. I could be a sub if necessary if the cookies are good...

Don't want your nasty cookies but I will sub if there are points involved. If your looking for a half decent GB player on the other hand I'm not your guy.

Do I still get any points if I win something in the tournament?

All these finished games and gameID=222901 is STILL only in 1903 and has been paused for weeks now. Can we please get some kind of explanation?

Please don't post about ongoing GB games in the forum. We are aware of the problem, which is caused by Ghug having internet/computer problems.

Since most mods are in the tournament, we ask for your patience while we sort out a solution.

I expect we will soon start placing the subs into games, which should allow us to unpause them. As soon as we've handled the ones that are obvious to us, we'll ask you to email us about the paused games we missed.

But they’re not ongoing lol. They’re paused indefinitely.

Didn’t we used to have tournament mods explicitly for this purpose? Who let so many mods participate in the tournament?

Has Flash2015 been subbed into the tournament already? He posted above that he's available.

Substitutions are pending for the two currently missing players.

The game in question is unfortunate in that a new player disappeared shortly before the old one was replaced, but the spot will be filled in short order.

Relatedly, I will be out of town Wednesdayy through Sunday. Please direct pause requests to [email protected] during that time.

Ghuggles has returned from the dead and will be doing some cleanup tomorrow (including subbing in the ready subs who haven't been put in yet).

Relatedly, I likely need even more subs. Hit me up.
