Well, it is much better than the case of Greece. We barely managed to obtain an observer status (it was like 3 votes difference). In fact, if there was only one player present in the EGF meeting instead of 2 i don't think we would have succeeded :p


I was actually present (via skype) and listened to the Greece discussion. I was quite surprised that the vote was in favour of granting observer status to Greece despite the fact none of the requirements as described in the EGF constitution were by the Greece request. I think that's OK, to lean in favour of inclusiveness rather than focusing on technical reasons to exclude, but it does highlight to me the fuzziness of the meaning of "observer member"

Ask on the EGF forum as to what the rights of an EGF observer member are :)

In the short term, it seems South African will be joining the Pandanet Team Championship event, which I'm very pleased about.


Glad to hear that. In League C I presume. Maybe we will play, or perhaps Victor Chow will crush me? :)


Me vs Victor Chow on IGS at 7pm GMT today! Watch me get killed ;-)

In quite a surprise I actually won! Though I played an awful yose and threw dozens of points away but fortunately managed to hold on for a half point win. PHEW! Hopefully not too many heart attacks among the observers...

There were quite a few heart attacks when he was filling in dame at the end then you took around two minutes to decide to fill a point in after passing the first couple of dame :) ...

Admins/moderators, can you please move the valuable posts on the game to the topic created specifically for that game? Not only are the game comments a bit off-topic here, the game comments are being split across two topics. Also, a way to contact the admins directly would be great - I spent ages looking for some link or button but was unable to find one.
