![]() Name's Bob, I use Sr., 'cause there's a Jr. He's 46, so that makes me retired (and tired). I'm a member of Team Finland et al. Since our American Social Security isn't enough to support me in the manner to which I have become accustomed, I'm also a homebuilder. I build moderate mountain homes on 3-5 acres, all of which have a view such as the photo on my profile. I'm hoping this club will help my Chess improve. Bob |

What i enjoy at gameknot more,is that i can play out -of -ordinary risky moves ,at the openings,enjoying my games more, free of the result anxiety.This explains why i dont like my team games so much -) I am a big talker ,u must have noticed this already, and teaser --- Bob,can u please gift me for my birthday one of the homes u build? -) --- Ilkka ,thank u for the invitation ,again Aloha to all,once more ( muumuu is a Hawaiian clothing that i chose for uncommon-happy-fun as my team's name) and hope to hear from u all here more |

![]() I am a recent addition to Team Finland & Int. Friends. I have been playing chess off and on since the early 70's (errr ... the 1970s, that is ...) I would love to get more OTB experience, but I find it difficult to block out entire weekends for the standard American weekend Swiss tournament. I am an executive in a small, high-tech company in Dallas, TX. I play ice hockey as well as chess ... or as poorly as chess, if you will forgive the pun. And, yes, I believe that the Dallas Stars can come back and beat the Colorado Avalanche to advance to the next round of the Stanley Cup play-offs! |

![]() I started to learn chess in 2003. I like to study the past games of top 10 players of gameknot. Till now, I think I can understand the first 5 moves what they made in their games, and then I copy their starts in my games. Conclusion: I do things, but I don't know why...heehee I am not a captain of any team, and nobody invited me to come. I was just looking around and I found a "café", then I came in... Alors, Madame/Monsieur, un café si vous plaît, merci... |

![]() My name is greg, I live near Lyon, France. I'm captain of the team "les 3 mousquetaires" although we are not active anymore. I have also been captain of the GK team, without much success, in 2 matches against IECC and CXV. I don't have much time to organize another match right now but may be in the future... learned chess when I was 7 and rediscovered it almost 5 years ago when I joined GK. I love this place, great to play chess and meet interesting people. Thanks Ilkka for having recreated this café, the idea was too good to be lost. What else... I love mountains, hiking, climbing, telemarking: Great outddor activities to refresh the mind. hope we'll have some good games, greg |
