It looks like you may have enough players- then after one or two afternoons and lots of people happening by and word of mouth, you will end up with quite a group I'm sure!

If you need an organizer, let me know. Bdarg and I started a chess club at Will's elementary school. I know, shocking, my name and chess mentioned together. ;-) Actually, I don't play, but I can get y'all some cute matching chess t-shirts if you want an official "look".:rotfl:

Will that turn into "shirts and skins" like in basketball? While we are talking about taking off clothes...I used to play strip darts with my exhusband. It's like strip poker, but I had a better chance at winning.

So far, I have four people signed up, and yes, that is enough to start. We would like to have a few more people for more challenges, but maybe they will come with time. Tentatively, we are getting together at Cerulean's around 4:30pm on Tuesday and will go from there. So if you have a game and a friend to bring, bring it on.

I notice that you have these games tied in with cocktail hour. I guarantee chess will be a big hit. Will winners or losers buy drinks? ;-)

As I mentioned, I am going for something a little different. I will probably be drinking hot tea, but to each his or her own.

Might stop by. It's been years for me but used to love to play so I'll try to stop by and size up the competition to see if I would drag anybody down.

We had our first Chess Match today at Cerulean's in WaterColor. It was great and we expect to grow a little bit. For anyone wanting to join us, we are making it a regular thing on Tuesdays from 4:30pm - around 6:30pm. All levels welcome. If you don't play Chess, bring a friend and another game to play and it can become Game Day Tuesdays.

You are darn tootin, Dan. Take me to your leader, the King, at once. Off with his head! Thanks for playing Dan. Rob Roy showed up shortly after you left and he and J Dogg were still playing when I left.
