Strictly speaking: No. Why do you think I included our team roster in the match description? We need to know beforehand how many players we have, unless people are happy with a possible substitute status.

That being said I am somewhat glad you did sign up, since waterbat's last visit was on the 15th and that is a little unfortunate if you want to play a team match with a 24 hour timer and 11 other people have to wait for the match to start. Sorry waterbat!

Well, if he doesn't...we'll just have to kick him from the RealmsBeyond chess group.

Well, the good news is that we are up 1-0 , but I'm worse in my 2nd game...

If anyone is interested there is live coverage from the Fide World Chess Cup 2013 in Tromso everyday with commentary by GM Susan Polgar and IM Lawrence Trent:

Right now they are down to blitz tiebreak for the third round.

Well, I won my black game in 16 moves so I don't get lynched right?

And Uberfish won his second game too. The last mistake was 27... Rfe8? allowing white to double rooks on the 7th rank. 27...Rae8 stops this and allows black to continue.
