Given that there are currently 133 Spartans and 22 Athenians, we should select the battleground carefully! Let's make a list of who's in - and then issue a specific challenge.

Count me in - ArtFizz(1442)

Ill be up for playing! but i would prefer to play long moves as in 7+ as i dont like the stress of having to come on everyday (even though i do but like to know i dont have to). MAybe 5 days a move id consider! also i like to play 1 game at a time! Also we should really ask a few others to join the group! if you send out personal invitations to a few people they will more than likely join! thats how i was draughted into most of my groups! This group (22) is kinda small and so nothing much happens with it, it just exists.

Imagine if there was 300 spartans man we would need millions of players to beat them! Lucky for us only 133

I'm in.  I don't think think I've managed to offend any Spartans yet.

Hi William,

Long time no spears cross! A small, select band of Athenians are up for a 'rumble' with an equal-sized group of Spartans. The 5 volunteers have approximately these ratings: 1441 1481 1680 2009 2067.

Do you think you could track down 5 vaguely comparable Spartans for a Team Match? Say 7 days per move. Rated, naturally. What do you say?

rgds, Art

It could be a while before the Spartans wake up. In the meantime, there are plenty of other groups out there that a just a little bit less well prepared, a little less hungry, a little less determined than us.

All we have to do is: find them!

Sounds good.  I'll see what I can do.  Sorry it took so long to respond.  I've been swamped lately and I've had very little time to get online.  I'll try to find the right 5 for our match.  It might take a minute tho.
