Well, looks like I'm playing Caer in the semis... if our practice earlier is anything to go by, I'm looking forward to a VERY interesting match!
heh, thanks Hier 8)

And I didn't do as badly as I first thought... i took both bishops, 2 Queens, 1 castle, both knights, and some pawns... I think, :) But it got obvious as the game went on that Caer was going to win. :)

Thanks, Darth. It was a good game.

Yeah... But I've got an idea... for those in the semi's, let them be spread out into four groups... like the elite in different groups, so they don't meet each other until later on. :)

So, is there a time limit to this round?
