Hi all, the clock is ticking, and so far we had only ONE confirmed entry.
TEAM: From All CountriesCAPTAIN: maysie (May) - Australia
VICE CAPTAIN : Boleo1 (Clement) - Canada
lysblanc (Lys) - Canada
oktayA (Oktay) - Turkey
RaNTuL (Emin) - Turkey
Uof FL Jen (Jen) - USA
All of you that want to participate, PLEASE organize your teams and select the Captain, who should write email to
IAC.at.BBO@gmail.com stating Team name, usernames of all teammates, and if possible average team strength (intermediate, advanced, expert).
The deadline for registrations is FEBRUARY 21 2359uct. We'll soon publish a document with detailed instructions, but the most important facts are:
* The matches will be held on Saturday, February 26th at 2000utc, 3pm eastern USA. Use
https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ to find out your local time, and be sure you can attend.
* Team captain and at least 3 teammates must be from IAC club. You can have players that are not IAC members, invited by the captain. Needless to say is that we'll expect all players to play ethically, be polite and respectful to all. Captains are responsible for their teams, and should be sure that non-IAC invited players are aware of the Zero Tolerance policy.
* After we have all teams registered, IAC and ACOL admins will seed them, and put captains in touch, by February 23rd 2359utc. Even though we play all kind of systems in IAC, ACOL players usually play just ACOL, and would not be fair to expose them to a team where pairs play different systems, they do not have enough time to prepare defense. So IAC can have 2/1 team, SAYC team, OCP team, etc., but not a mixture of them.
So many of you love team matches, I am surprised we do not have at least half a dozen teams already registered and practicing
Don't be shy or lazy, join -- it will be great fun event for all!
