Since its so few we may as well play double round robin with total of 8 games each.

OK so just the 5 of us.
I'd suggest we play at either

www.itsyourturn.com or
www.redhotpawn.com

but if you wanna play somewhere else that you both agree thats cool.

We can use IM here to arrange teh games and then IM me the results and i'll draw up a table.

Format is double round robin so play both colors.

Good Luck!!

I have never learned how to play Chess very well. What about backgammon?

Hier and I played our second game.

Neither made mistakes - ended with both having a Rook and two pawns and, of course, our KINGS

DRAW!!

I played James, 2-0 to me.

Pretty lucky though, especially in the first game!
