If you have questions, ask them!

iam rated 1200 for now loll.. my real rating is about .. 2300

no in the internet i stoped playing chess in club when i was 17 .. i played for 3 years in algiers now iam 33 but play quit well loll ..

Houston, I´ve got a problem with these two players already! =)
They´re far outrated for me... :P

iam thinking about regaining the club but  i have no time to do it .

hey, is this tournament still open?

yes, if you want to join, please, because it hasn´t got many responses...

yeah sure, I want to join

can i still join?

Yes, I´d like to wait for some players, as you might notice, dead lines passed away months ago! But of course you´re welcome, I´ll update the "schedule"

Of course you can! I´ll add you to the schedule!

Could you wait until Saturday afternoon?
That would be very nice. 

I'm sorry, I also time-outed all my normal games, really haven't got time for chess.com actually =(

However, with all the 5 (!) people, let's start!
(Kacparov says he's here by tomorrow, but you can always challenge him)

• Challenge each other, once white, once black.
• In favour, give your game the name "2nd Manual Tournament".
• You may want to play the game simultaneous, or after each other...
• You may want to choose the time limit 2,3 or 5 days.
  (Use the "Message"-button to conversate with your opponent!)
•  When finished, please message me, or more simple:
  - Go to your game archive
  - Find the game played, copy the whole rule and paste it here! 

I'm not the most wonderful example, but start ASAP, please!

I wish you all the best of luck - especially myself,
Bert Dekker
