Hi all !
Are we ready for the next "battle"?
The next match is scheduled to take part on Sunday, May 1st, 2022. We'll have 2 starting times hours:
* 1100utc, 7am NY, noon London, 16:30 New Delhi, 11pm Auckland
* 1900 utc, 3pm NY, 8pm London, 7am Auckland
All those starting at 1100utc will play the same boards, and all those starting at 1900 utc will also play the same boards, but different from those at noon.
Each match is of 16 boards, played in two stanzas of 8 (* see below), changing opponents at half-time. Scoring is by IMPs.
Please form your teams and choose a captain, who should mail
IAC.at.BBO@gmail.com (and please CC me:
sanja@sapo.pt), stating your team name, BBO usernames of the pairs in the team, and which session you prefer (earlier or later, either or both). If you want, you can play in both sessions, assuming we have enough opposing ACOL teams.
Each team can have more than 2 pairs, but there will be only 2 stanzas, the captains should inform us which pair plays in which session.
Deadline for registration is April 26th @ 2359 utc.
If you are just a pair, please post here on forums and match up with another pair to form the team. Or as a single player, just say you'd like to play, and in which session, and pair up with another member : )
In the 2nd challenge 2 IAC teams won, and I am sure we'll do even better this time : ) And even more sure, all will enjoy the games, so do not miss!

We received requests from some players to make matches 2* 10 boards. What is your opinion on that?
