Life In 19x19

Yep. I'm in.

I'm in too if there's still room.

Yep, there sure is! Hoping for one more, after you!

Looks like we're still one DDK player short - any more takers?

While I'm here, I'd also like some clarification on the rules for this game. Specifically, are the team-members allowed to read the hidden text behind their team-mates' move suggestions, or the reasons for the captain's decision?

Rules seem to be "normal Malkovich", plus:

1) Three soldiers suggest their moves, but are allowed to read each others' posts.
2) Captain responds to each suggestion, and picks a move. Soldiers can read all responses.
3) Captain may also make comments to observers only, but should tag it as such.
4) No team member can read the posts of the other team.

Yes, the order of suggestions doesn't matter, in the rules.

I know you're not supposed to bump month old topics (although you could argue if this is a bump. This topic is like what, 3rd?), but since last time you ended up only one member short I thought I'd give it a try to start this up again.

I'm willing to participate as a soldier. Any takers?

I can try to be a general (is that the term we're using?) ... but bear in mind I can sometimes play like I'm DDK anyways.

I'm still up for being dictator, but we might want more evenly ranked captains. If so, I'm willing to step aside.

I'm only a few wins away from 2k on KGS, if that makes you feel any better.

Besides, we'll have grunts doing the move choice for us.

If this does go ahead, I'd still like to be a soldier - but if I'm now considered too strong for it, I don't mind stepping aside. (I really don't think that's the case, though - KGS now laughably rates me as an 8k, but that's mainly just natural upward drift due to not having played a rated game there in ages, and the way I've played lately, in games in the January DDK tournament here and also over the board, I don't feel that I can properly call myself an SDK. Certainly, Mnemonic is at least as strong as me and probably stronger, as anyone will see who looks at our games in the tourney last week.)

i'd like to participate.
I'm somewhere between 19-12kyu (KGS 13k, DGS19k), so I'll opt for being one of the soldiers.

If there is still room then I'm in.

So far, we have:

Captains:
Marcus (3k/2k)
Redundant (solid 1k now, right?)

Soldiers:
Mnemonic (10k/11k? You said you were on a roll lately. )
robinz (9k)
lesenv (Let's call it 13/14k)
Sink (12k, right?)

Two more soldiers and we can try this out (if everyone is still interested).
