Re: June 5 Blitz update

Vlad, have you considered adding a $1-$2 surcharge to support the Olympiad Team?

[Sam Haziprodromu]

Re: June 5 Blitz update

Why should Vlad charge the people who come on a regular basis a surcharge. Perhaps you can contribute on our behalf.

Come ON people! Make a prediction and come and play. The Canadian Open will be here before you know it, so take the opportunity to warm up with some blitz games! See you at Mom's Cafe!

I wish i could come to play but we are celebrating the independence day of the Philippines from the Americans, Japanese and Spaniards this June 12.

And if i make a prediction and did not come, i will be penalized of losing the right to predict the next time i come. So i pass ...or check ....just like in poker. lol.
