That's a cop out! Having skyped you, awaiting a 'Mod' show for the great challenge, it's all over now! A no win nor loss, everything is back to square zero!

I hear on the grapevine that only banned members are allowed to attend anyway!

I just heard from DutchCrusader - who is not active on this board anymore - that he follows in the footsteps of Guido & Liz. As far as DC is concerned the "ABCC - Alsancak Backgammon & Chess Club" has ceased to exist. Volunteers to revive "ABCC" are welcome. Good luck.

Re Msg 29 I concur.



However would like to see the ABCC continue and with the help of any other players, MikeLapta etc. would be willing to try and keep it going.



Any volunteers?



I am sure we will be hearing from Hans in one form or other.

@ Mrs Shrimp, message 34: "I for one will miss the quizes and the wealth of information he gave us on this forum.........sorry to hear this and hoping one day to see him back......"



Mrs Shrimp: I just heard from DutchCrusader - who is not active on this board anymore - that he fears that for some self-styled ruler(s) on this board 'rules' are more important than content. A civil servant mentality one might or maybe could call it. This is of course a very personal observation and not any criticism.

@ msg 44, mikelapta: I've checked with DutchCrusader and here's the answer: yes. The small gym, pool or watch one the seven TV screens, one being very big. Or just sit on the terrace and watch you trying to play tavla...
