The teams for the tournament are looking a little one-sided (America
has, what, about 20 players and the rest of the world 3?
I'd like to say throw me in with the rest of the world (currently a
resident of Japan, rated 1288 but hoping to rise back to 1300 soon)
but I'm worried about what kind of time-outs you are going to use.
I'm on a different time system and work Saturdays and Sundays so
it's hard to get a series of moves in rapidly, unless it's between 11pm
and 12am Japanese time!
