I'd be keen to sign up. What kind of standard are you looking for? My regular partner would probably be free too, although I don't think he is really a forum member.

As good as possible of course, but as you can see there is often a dearth of offers to play. Please let me know whether your regular partner is, indeed, available.

After this match there will be a break for the summer nationals, BTW.

OK, great!

Broze, what's your partner's name?

Me and my partner (East4Evil-sohcahtoa) will be players/alts, obv give broze priority since he posted first, but if he can't make it we'll step in for sure. Time is 2 PM east coast USA?
I once yelled at my partner for discarding the 'wrong' card when he was subjected to a squeeze that I allowed by giving the wrong count with too high a card. Now he's allowed to pitch aces when the opponents have the king in the dummy. At trick 2. When he could have followed suit. And blame me.

I think broze is coming but thanks for the offer, won't hurt if you're around just in case. ;)

Unfortunately the match has been cancelled due to JEC's PC problems. :(

Thanks to broze-ibraves, mbodell-javabean and east4evil-sohcahtoa for showing up - you guys have priority for another JEC match if you want to play.

The forums got their first victory due to resignation by the opponents!!!
