I'd come and help you out as I quite like the Wanderers but I don't think you can be a clan leader for two clans 🙂

I think that's why the clan community is the best one around ... We have players who actually don't mind if we are on page 1 or page 6 .. they just like playing lots of chess!

As Rusty said 12 months is a long time and there are too many variables to have any confidence in order etc. The best thing that can happen is this year it's a bit closer and that 3 or 4 clans can give the Metals a 'run for their' money, and I'm sure @mghrn55 would welcome that.

And there's no reason why some of the clans with fewer members can't do well from a net perspective ... Anonymous is a good example!

You are correct we have went with 17 and 18 and have been as low as 16 players and still finished in 1rst place. I have noted over the years Clans that like to win and do care where they are like to be at least on Page 1. I don't see you being happy on 6th page.

Yes you can only be a Clan Leader on one Clan not saying you can't give advice to another clan leader, probably best done in a P.M....

Not just mghrn55 like the challenge we all do. Some of us have been many years in this clan. I speak for myself when I say it is a lot better when you have some competition and this year looking like we have lots of that which is great to see once again.

How do you know Al gave you a thumbs down, I think he is more likely to say something to you. Like there isn't 6 pages you know there are only 5 well lets just say 5 is started. 😉

It was a joke 🤣

I just thought it funny someone (no idea who) would thumbs down such an innocuous post!

So now max you wind up with 5 thumbs down mine included for thinking it was joke.

I believe Al is one of the more respected Clan Leaders on the site in my humble opinion.

We seem to have a poster who you might have not noticed that likes going around giving everyone a thumbs down regardless of what is said.

I have just reciprocated, I rarely bother just tell you when I don't agree with you which is often. 😉 😛

I also have the JOY of receiving thumbs down from the little group as an added bonus which always fun for a laugh. 😉

I think you spend half your RHP existence thumbing down and alerting posts.

Al and I are good friends .. borne out of supporting small football teams that over recent years have played at higher league levels than we could ever dreamt. The Wanderers & Brewers. Of course next year we will be chess and football adversaries 🙂

I think you point the finger towards me every time you get an alert thrown your way.

Why, because you're a very paranoid person! 😉 😛

Surprising part is most of your posts alerted are removed.

So you know each other in person, just some good natured ribbing was meant?

No, not in person, but who knows next season? We have plenty of good-natured dialogue

I didn't really care who gave the post a thumbs down, it clearly wasn't Al as my post was directly to him and Al would have had no reason to down-thumb me

Eitherway, my attempt at humour didn't work out ... must be careful next time 🙂
