I am a member of both Team Scandinavia and We chat global. When these groups  now are competing in a tournament, I wonder: Is there any problems concerned with participating for one of my groups against the other? Can I choose for free? Or is it a part of the game that I shall not participate in such a situation?

I hope someone can tell me if there is a clear answer to the questions.

Yes, you can choose to play for one of the teams but only one team so long as you play honestly for that one team.

I think that if you are a member of two teams then you loyalties should be equal to both. So a person shouldn't participate in competitions between them. It seems very strange to me, to be a member of a team and compete against them. I think it all depends on how serious a person is about being a team member.

he he det er vel liksom en del av jobben din det der å være opptatt av habilitet..lojalitet til medlemskap i et team....jaja. ere ikke for gøy dette a?

I recognise that I am free after the "book".

For what it is worth: I decided not to participate on either of the teams in the described situation. I realise that it - even if we are playing just for fun - isn't natural to compete against a team that I joined "shoulder by shoulder" in other tournaments. Split lojalty isn't fun. To avoid such situations: Avoid membership in too many groups. 

Til Hansgg: Jo det er moro, og det hender det er lojalitetskonflikter (i form av spørsmål om habilitet) i jobbsammenheng. Og: Det er moro å spille sjakk.

Is it possible that you could have found that  you were playing against yourself? In this case it would be best to draw, or you would have both won and lost in the same game!!!!!!

That would be cool.
