            Its NR           jansteen 5d*            top123 1d*   
Found 3 observers.
StPatrick [3k\]: Are we allowed to cheer for the teams?
jansteen [5d*\]: you have any preferences? :)
StPatrick [3k\]: well the UK one has my friends in it ;-)
epgc1: Players are still not even in the room.
StPatrick [3k\]: I met you at the London tournament Jansteen - we played a rengo at new years ;-)
jansteen [5d*\]: why is it Go players are always late? :)
Ariel74 [5k*\]: hello, does anyone know anything about the players?
Ariel74 [5k*\]: are the professionals?
B4yuCh4n [9k*\]: halo any one can tell me " which is the black one?"
StPatrick [3k\]: amateurs i'm afraid ;-)
StPatrick [3k\]: alex selby is a 3d with some interesting history
StPatrick [3k\]: jenny is about 10k
Ariel74 [5k*\]: 3d amateur?
epgc1: Jenny and Alex one of the unoffical UK pairs - Alex is 3D but Jenny is quite weak, so should be interesting against the strong Germans.
Ariel74 [5k*\]: 10k????
StPatrick [3k\]: maybe 9kyu
Basti [2d*\]: why you write Benjamin Teuber 5d? In Germany he plays as 6d
Ariel74 [5k*\]: ummmm disappointing
StPatrick [3k\]: he has a 4d partner
Ariel74 [5k*\]: and jenny's partner?
Basti [2d*\]: ah it's their combined rating
Basti [2d*\]: thought she was 3d...
epgc1: Players just entering the room
StPatrick [3k\]: yay
epgc1: Jenny and Alex are here, waiting for the Germans.
epgc1: They are complaining that their opponents get a flag and they don't.
Bagl [20k\]: =)
StPatrick [3k\]: lol
Harleqin [NR\]: how come?
Ariel74 [5k*\]: so which player from the first pair will play which player from the second pair?
Ariel74 [5k*\]: or do they take turns to make moves?
epgc1: Pair go is one game, players take turns.
Ariel74 [5k*\]: that would be interesting
epgc1: It goes Black lady, White lady, Black man, White man.
epgc1: And no conferring!
StPatrick [3k\]: not even a little conferring?
epgc1: Benjamin has just arrived, and left again!
Ariel74 [5k*\]: so I suppose this feature makes up for their low strength
Ariel74 [5k*\]: and makes the game interesting in its own way:-)
epgc1: It was created both as a way to get more women playing, but also as a very good learning tool for the weaker players.
