More Players Needed for Bobby Fischer's Group match.
Grupo Paises e Regioes Lusofonos -- There were only four people from their group interested in a third match with us. I took most of us out, not because anyone did anything wrong, but so we could have some of our lower-rated opponents play even competition. This match has already started.
Turk Chess Players -- Still a little interest on their part (24 players now). This is very evenly matched. I'll wait another day or so and see if they get two more so that everyone who joined will get to play. Should be a good one. We have more than they do signed up, so we don't need any more at the moment. I'll post everyone if that changes.
Dias Petropolus -- Thanks to bamahdi for taking on the task of slaying the giant Dionisio. We could use another 3-5 people rated above 2200 to take on their 2200's -- this is a small, but VERY tough group which is six masters deep as of this post. We need about 5-10 more players total of all strengths for this one. We have 28 players signed up so far. To join:

Bobby Fischer's Group -- We have 20 players signed up now; we need many more. We need someone 2300 or stronger willing to take on mingmercy (2580) and someone willing to take on whitehorse348 (2405). Then, we need about four more players rated 2200 or stronger for this match; they have six masters signed up. And we need as many people as possible to sign up of all levels -- there will be a lot of boards. If you're only going to sign up for one, sign up for this one. This is NOT Chess 960; this is regular chess; this group is not to be confused with two similar groups who specialize in Chess960. This is a very strong group that is the one right ahead of us in the rankings. To join:
