I appreciate your enthusiasm, guys!

I should maybe make it a touch clearer that I'm looking to face players of a fairly high calibre. I'm not stating any rigid GR status, nor am I looking for a minimum in webdip points, but you have to have a fairly high win-draw-survive percentage and no resigns.

I also want to mention that there are players who have shown an interest in this game via PM. There is one in particular whom I would really like to face and who is asking for a 200 buy-in. Given the number of guys who've been asking for a smaller bet, it's not impossible that I create two games after all.

All right! People who have voiced an interest:

Mapu, Draug, JMO, BO-sox, Bornagain, Achillies, Frank, and SD.

I have one person explicitly asking for a high bet. Achillies, Bo-Sox, and JMO... I think that's fine with you, no? So for a high bet game, I'd have:
SD
JMO
BO-Sox
Achillies

And for a lower stake game I'd have
Draug
Mapu
Frank
Bornagain

I don't mind higher stakes up to 135.

I jist noticed I have enough points for the 141, so count me in on that one if you need me.

Still missing 2 players in each categories.

I'll try to keep this thread alive and see if we can fill the spots, otherwise I'll put a game together

How much is low stakes game? I might play

Count me in for the 141 buy-in if spots are still available

You got it Maniac

Shikari: I'm not sure... likely around 30 or 40... I don't really care. We'll see when we're there.

So 1 player missing on each game.

Actually... I forgot FD and I have an applicant who wrote via private message. The games will be created soon and PW will be sent.

I don't play high bet games often and I don't feel like changing that o_O

All right... we'll figure this out.

@ Achillies, JMO: is 200 okay with you? We're only missing 2 guys for the high stakes. Draug, if you can make it, you're welcome to join.

@ Bo-Sox, Mapu, Frank, FD, Bornagain and Shikari: looks like we have our low stakes game ready. Shall we say 35 ?
I want to mention, however, that I've noticed a fairly high number of resigns from some of you. Should I be worried?

200 is perfect for me :)

I can't do 200. The original 141 you mentioned is fine, but I only have 146 available and need 5 for the 4th league game.

I understand your predicament Draug. We'll have the chance to face each other again very soon, I'm sure. But given that the players asking for the higher bet are all people I've never played before, and given the nature of these games, I'm going to stick to the higher bet.

@ JMO: a few people have yet to reply to an invite. If I can fill the roster with players I've not played as much as you, our reunion will have to wait. I'm sure you can understand.

That's fine. If a couple other games I'm part of the draw end soon, maybe I can get the 200 together. Just gotta wait them out.

Well, the higher stakes game has already been filled and we're waiting for the last couple of guys to get on board. If there's an issue, I'll get back to you guys here.

As for the lower stakes one... I repeat:

@ Bo-Sox, Mapu, Frank, FD, Bornagain and Shikari: looks like we have our low stakes game ready. Shall we say 35 ?
I want to mention, however, that I've noticed a fairly high number of resigns from some of you. Should I be worried?

I've never missed a single turn never mind CD.

Indeed you haven't Mapu! So I guess that hat don't fit your head! All is well.

Me neither - never knowingly CDed - 35 is good for me ...

I had one CD where I got dragged away and one CD where I got banned o_O

Banned???

That doesn't bode well..!!!!

High stakes game: we're still waiting on the 7th to join.

When that game is started, I'll create the low stakes one.

Yeah, it was interesting.

I'm going to withdraw from this game. Can't commit to a presser right now unfortunately. Have fun guys!

"Banned???

That doesn't bode well..!!!!"

No worries Cachimbo, this game will be clean.

Jmo, I don't know what you did with those threads, but if you guys have them archived, can you please send them to me? I would like to show off my greatest painkiller-infected troll ever to my grandkids someday when they go back to calling it "being a dick." Thanks.

I wasn't a mod at that point, but seeing that Kestas removed them himself I really doubt anyone beside him could recover them.

Awwwww…

In other words, I can ask any of the mods besides you to get them for me because they're all Kestas. Yes?

Guys, Can we make low stakes 34? That's all I have unfortunately..
Also, my single resign is when my PC overheated and wouldn't turn on in a live game so yeahh.
