Dead serious. Thought you too would welcome the opportunity of being together

and tending to a little long overdue face to face air cleaning in a relaxed setting.

if you can see a skull where the game is listed in 'My Games', click on it for the win.

To time out an opponent, believe you simply click the skull.

Thats the problem i have not got a skull.
In the game it says...

"Time controls
3 days per move. 0 days timebank.

Time expired"

I moved last so its his go. In my games box all there is is a trash can so i dont really no what to do. Has anyone else had this?

Thank you

I can't speak for the others, but I can see roadblocks. One of the more serious
problems is your penchant for gleaning personal information about other members
and sharing it with the world from time to time. I won't compound the problem by
providing examples, but I think you know what I mean. You could vow to respect
our privacy, but I don't think you can restrain yourself. You seem to have an
overpowering need to take control and to gain the upper hand. Your OP is a
perfect example (and we won't even go into your wishes for sustained eye locks
or moving in with my family for the weekend).

As I said, I can only speak for myself, but at this point I don't know if Phlab even
wants to host another barbecue or whether or not I am on the invitation list. It's
only a casual cookout, not a Fortune 100 board meeting.

I've put my home on the market actually. I'll take a beating for what I paid for the home, but should be able to get a nearby home cheap.

Next BBQ is PM invite only.

Andy, you must still recall your belated apology for taking me to task for casually

mentioning you were my senior... in which you acknowledged you yourself had

made public mention of your age relative to mine only a matter of weeks before.

Hardly defines "a penchant..." though I do retain disclosures in the public domain.

Purpose of the thread was to express my non-mushy affection to Boston area RHP

Members... full well realizing it would elicit negativity and criticism. Maybe in 2011.

You have affection for New England members, yet you expect negativity and criticism.
Why do you think that's the case?

Less than casual approach to a meeting of people you only really know through a web site. This sounds like you'd be the creepy guy.

During introductions both ways, we smiled knowingly a bit... shook hands and such and began to talk.

What you propose is exactly what you DON'T want to do when meeting someone new. You certainly wouldn't want to do it with a dog, tiger, or bear either.

It's VERY confrontational, in my mind.

We could always put something "different" on the BBQ pyre.
