happy π day!

It's February 14 again, which means it's Partners' Day! While it is always advised to be kind and attentive towards your Partner, it is always possible to do just better. Today is a great day to forget and forgive and laugh it off if they mess up. Writing 'np' is 100ms and it gives you both a better mood. Meet new partners in random pool. Show partners you appreciate them with trophies and awards. Present them sweet sweet 'cake' or 'ez gg' for their efforts.Give up on your plans and start supporting theirs: you win if they win on the other board (and you lose if they lose there).Be extra chatty. There is no ELO for being a Good Partner which means all Partners are Best Partner. And you're a Partner too. Anyway Happy Partners' Day, and Good Games, and Have Fun Everyone!

Hi!I'm a washed up semi pro with a peak rating around 2300 but that was years ago and now I'm 1700. Looking for a partner in 1800-2000+ range who speaks proper English. I'm looking to play the first qualifier in about 2 hours if anyone is willing.

I'm just wondering why Bughouse is called Bughouse

Everything here seems to be 3/0 but I always played 5/0 IRL; 3/2 would be fun too. Perhaps if we can decide on a different time we could make a separate club for that? 

If you have any ideas post them down below
