She was a phantom of delight
When first she gleamed upon my sight;
A lovely Apparition sent
To be a moment's ornament;
Her eyes as stars of Twilight fair;
Like Twilight's, too, her dusky hair;
But all things else about her drawn
From May-time and the cheerful Dawn;
A dancing Shape, and Image gay,
To haunt, to startle, and way-lay. - William Wordsworth

In one week, the time will change for "Mini-Matches" to an hour later to go along with daylight savings time.  "Mini-Matches", next Saturday, registration at 1500 UTC. Play begins at 1520 UTC.  I find this clock more accurate than Fibs:  http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/full.html and this is the one I use.   ;)

If it is going to be an hour later - surely you mean it will be registration at 1600 UTC, with play starting at 1620 - best check that clock you use  ;)

Sorry, I was unclear about the time change going into effect.  We will play at same time next Saturday, 18 Dec 04, 1500 for registration and 1520 for play, as advertised.  The following Saturday, 25 Dec 04, Xmas Day, Mini's will open for registration at 1600, and 1620 for play.

One way that we can exhibit love for others is to care about them enough to try to imagine what they are feeling - to care about them enough to try to walk in their shoes. The better we understand another persons situation, the more capable we will be to help them, if they need help. - unknown

Hi there

Could you please tell me how the points are distributed in each mini-matches tourney?

I have seen some where it is: 12,8,4,4  ^_^
and other where it is: 14,10,8,6...  :o

So, I do not know how the prices are given  :P  :blink:

Anyhow, it is not too important. I just want to understand.

Take care  :bye:
