introduction
Hi all, i was looking through the clubs and saw this captains one and it looked interesting, so thanks for letting me join  

A lot of the usernames here look familiar from organising team games, but for for those who I haven't met yet i'm captain of team its process not substance.

Some interesting discussions going on, hopefully I'll be able to join in every now and again

New introduction
Hi all,
Just wanting to wave and say hello.
I have a little team, the Nambian Kings, which I
manage in a lazy fashion. One of my new year's
resolutions will be to put more effort into that,
attract more members, and put more work into
improving my own game. I look forward to being
more involved and getting to know some of the
other captains!

Cheers!
Pleased to meet you, Eric. My team is about the same size as yours, and we actually like it that way--easy to manage, and I can keep all of my teammates stocked with as many games as they desire.

hi.
Thanks very much for accepting me into the club. I'm Harry, and today I started a new team, Chess Friends gameknot.com We are doing okay so far and we have a team of 4 and have got ourselves involved in a match already. I should say here that we are indebted to Neil, amacivn for his tolerance in allowing us to get our very first match up and running.

I have now got my head around the system for setting up matches although I expect that I have much to learn. Any advice will be welcome.

Cheers
Harry

Thanks supersparsky and ironwoodhollow for your good wishes.

I've looked at your teams and both have interesting players for possible future team challenges, so I will remember these team names.

Best Wishes

Thanks Joe
Hi Joe,

Thanks for the matches we have already. I too look forward to more matches with your fine team in the future. I'm currently trying to recruit some players with ratings that we don't already have, so that we can hopefully offer a more varied selection in the future.

Cheers
Harry

Now he is back on the team he expertly Captained in the past. Good Luck, Adam!

ozdin is doing very well for the team, I see. His team is already #20 on the team ladder today. Welcome, Adam, to the Captains' Club. It is good to see your team doing well. Best wishes and blessings, Shirley.

The Nambian King's team name
Hi all, just thought I would share this. Another player asked about my team's name, and while I think my sense of humor is obvious, that's not always the case. My reply:

Among the many uninformed and ridiculous things that President Trump has said, he once talked at some length about how well Nambia is doing. nobody could tell if he meant Namibia, or Zambia, or if he was just making up baloney as he often does. Around the same time there was rampant speculation about his tweet referencing "covfefe" and when asked what he thought about the long-dead Black American freedom pioneer, he clearly had no idea who Frederick Douglass was, and winged an answer as though the man were a modern-day figure.
So, my appreciation for the absurd situation of having such a buffoon as leader of the free world led me to form the team with a description referencing those ludicrous moments.
Thanks for asking! The team itself is not really political, just another great way to meet other chess enthusiasts and play chess

CoroVirus covid-19 Circulation 4

Hello l'Ami belle réussite ton feu de camp ? À la vue d'un doc. "actualisé" covid-19, de bribes d'infos y compris no-french. À
défaut de tests massifs, masques bla,bla... Il est impératif d'
éviter tout rassemblement familiale, dont BB, n'oublions pas qu'ils sont aéroportés, no-limits. Touche les 30, 40 ans, les vieux c'est fait !

NULLE VISITE JUSQU'À "BONNES NOUVELLES" D'AILLEURS, PROIE FACILE, RENFORCEMENT DE MES "BARRICADES", PENSEZ AUX "AUTRES", DIEU VOUS GARDE...

Translation of above:

CoroVirus covid-19 Circulation 4

Hello Friend, nice success your campfire? At the sight of a doc. "updated" covid-19, snippets of info including no-french. AT
lack of massive tests, masks blah, blah ... It is imperative to
avoid any family gathering, including BB, let's not forget that they are airborne, no-limits. Touch 30, 40 years old, it's done!

NO VISIT UNTIL "GOOD NEWS" FROM ELSEWHERE, EASY PREY, REINFORCEMENT OF MY "BARRICADES", THINK OF "OTHERS", GOD KEEP YOU ...

This is an interesting thread. I imagine that oldhub is trying to encourage people to pick up some french and I think that is a great idea. Everybody already knows English. I wish we had more Spanish speakers because I'm pretty good at that one. I would like to learn more French though. I love the Latin based languages.

I really want to learn the Cyrillic and also the kanji of the Japanese and...well...I want to learn every language.

PAWNTIFEX
I just sent a message to one of my players who lives in Spain. I have to translate what he is saying as it comes to me in Spanish and then I have to translate what I am saying to him. But he is a very nice, loyal team player.

It would be nice if more people sent a message in French to oldhub. I have not really understood what he was saying in his messages of the past until this last message, which is clearer. The message seems to be directed at an old friend who he is unable to contact through a private message. What do you think, pawntifex?

Of course, oldhub's message has good advice for everyone concerning the Corona virus.

Hi
My name is Janet. Some of you may know me, others may not. Astronomy and Chess are my main hobbies. I have been on gameknot for about 12 years now. Looking forward to 'general discussions' on a variety of Subjects. But not politics.

I did not realize that this was also the Team Captains club. I thought it was a new club. I am not a team Captain. I am a Team Trainer (6th sense team). If this club is only for team Captains let me know. I don't want to intrude.
baddeeds

It's not just for team captains or co-captains but those that have played, at least, 30 team games, which you have done, Janet.
