Quick call for tomorrow at 9.30AM New York Time (15:30 Central Europe) for a 20-board team match vs JEC

Any takers? Need an answer fast if possible - that's not our regular time slot, but susi asked if we want to play

Haui belongs to that unfortunate group of people who have to work full time. ;) (Thus single.)

I would like to play. Conveniently I am working from home tomorrow so the boss won't watch over my shoulder.

And another BBF vs JEC will take place today at 2PM EDT (8PM CET)

helene_t + gwnn
mgoetze + haui85

Sorry I didn't get to post here before. Susina asked while the BBF team was playing whether they can play again at 8PM so that was it. Not much time for democratic elections sry.

Lost by 7 in 20 boards, we were quite close! We played 3NT instead of a grand slam due to an annoying system flaw, then went for -300 in consecutive vulnerable partscores, and towards the end we had a defensive misunderstanding that cost a game swing (really my fault). But we also scored a few game swings, that's a nice feeling for a change!
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

I was thinking I should make some sort of an analysis video after the fact but I decided it would be too much work. Next time maybe?
