Hi I am looking to see what interest there might be in IAC to make up a team or teams to participate. It may take a little while, I'll keep in touch as to how it's going.

Hi:

 

very good,I fear the time difference is one of the biggest obstacles to our matches, how to solve?

We can expect to have to live with almost permanent jet lag.

I honestly hope both of us can cooperate happily.

 

Thank you,and again.

Best Regards

I think it is best that we can hold War Game between CBC and IAC in advance,and then we decide how many teams to join.each 10 match teams respectively I guess,how about?

Hang on I don't know yet how many IAC people are interested/able to play so can't make any plans until I hear from people. I'm not sure at all we will be able to get 10 teams who are able to play at the times you can play,it will take some time to sort out. Maybe you should say just when your teams can play so we know what times we have to work with?

Hi Nige I'd be happy to include you but you don't seem to be a member of IAC at the moment and since this is being shaped up as IAC vs CBC that's a bit of a problem. If you like I can let you know how things are shaping up and then you can decide if you would like to join, it's free of course.

Beijing = UTC +8

USEDT = UTC-4

USEST = UTC-5

British Summer Time = UTC+1

 

Feel Free to quote this and add time zones if that helps.

[lycier]

Thanks Lycier and the China Bridge Club for an enjoyable and polite match.

 

I believe we agreed that the next match next Sunday will be a slightly earlier time: at 9 AM NY time, which would be Sunday 9 pm (21:00) your time, if the World clock is correct. I will see how many members will be available so early, we may need to make it a little later in future, but can try for that time next Sunday.

 

I was also wondering if it might be possible to reverse the time sometime and have the match some day at 9 pm (21:00) NY time =9AM your time, for perhaps a second weekly match? That would allow more of our members to participate.

[lycier]

All right,I agree with your proposal.I hope we have a cordial working relationship.

[lycier]

I can be glad to tell everyone that our matches went very smoothly at the moment .

Thanks to IAC !

#7137 Teams IAC vs China

The result:

IAC: 23imps

CBC:72imps

winner:CBC

[onoway]

Congratulations China club I think we are now even so I'm not going to keep on keeping score in this forum. I notify IAC of the results and I assume you notify the China club and I also assume nobody else cares very much :).

[lycier]

Yesterday we held IAC Vs China match twice at 21.00 PM and 6.30 AM NY.

Today we will hold China Vs IAC match at Sunday 9.00 AM,NY.

Many thanks to IAC,especially to onoway for his progmatic cooperation.

[onoway]

I am very sorry to see the China - IAC team matches come to an end. I cannot tell a member of good standing in IAC that he or she cannot play for the club in any event because of their nationality. Since this is not acceptable to the administrator of the China Club who pulled his team out of the matches in protest, the matches are unfortunately discontinued.

 

Thank you to the people who played, the matches were enjoyed.

PAM, I think that you are fabricating facts.

1- According to our engagement, both of your IAC and my CBC agreed twice matches a week, right? this is our regular schedule of match play,right?

2- But we really don't understand is that Do you want to cancel the game unilaterally ! the reason is that you had played tm against a chinese player who come from your club,so you wanna to cancel our match due to twice matches of your schedule of week play.I must tell you that your IAC can play TM against any one or any clubs, whatever how many times played,that is your rights.it is absolutely nothing to do with us.

 

In the other word,you can't cancel our match at your will due to your match played against others.

This is the truth of the fact for what I said.

 

There is an English proverb which says “Honesty is the best policy.” It signifies the importance of honesty.There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here. In a word, a dishonest man will be looked down upon by others and regarded as a public enemy.

Pam,pardon,both of you and me used to be friends, we are reduced to running into serious troubles as today's results, it was a pathetic world .Such a unfriendly reply,your behaviour is real damage to both clubs.

Remember that silence is golden.

Lycier; the facts are: We had teams ready to play and as soon as you heard one of our players was Chinese, you first got angry and said among other things that I had betrayed our agreement and so it was over and then you declined to even talk to me much less give me the names of the players for China.

 

I got another member of IAC who speaks Chinese to explain to you in case there was a misunderstanding but that didn't appear to get through either.

 

I even asked one of the players who had played regularly for China if he knew who was supposed to play the match and all he could say was that you were the leader of the China club.

 

We waited until 20 minutes past the start time and you actually had logged out, then I called for subs to replace the China team players and we had an IAC team match.

 

So that left no choice but to accept that you had withdrawn the China club from the competition. This was Saturday night.

 

However, just in case, my team and I were ready at the agreed time on Sunday morning, the China club team - including you - was nowhere to be found, so again I got an team of IAC subs to make up a match so that the players who had come to IAC to play the China club had not got up at some ungodly hour to come play and then not get a game.

 

How you can try to make this into ME quitting the match is incomprehensible.

 

The facts are, when you heard that a Chinese player was playing for IAC, you threw a tantrum and withdrew. A further fact is, if a member of IAC wishes to play for the club, there is absolutely no way I am going to say he or she can't because of their nationality. That is not only absurd but probably illegal where I live.

 

If you don't remember it going down like this, I log all my chat and can refresh your memory.

 

lycier (Lobby): You have no good faith, I will be terminated with your activities.very very saddness

....

>lycier: do you have your players here or not?

->dvd: do you have players here? Lycier is being weird because I told him that tomorrow a player for IAC happens to be chinese

thornbury (Lobby): are we starting soon?

->dvd: so now he isn't talking to me

->thornbury: trying to find out what is going on with the chinese team

->dvd: if the chinese team wishes to play then I need to have names now, my players are all waiting and ready

..

dvd (Lobby): oh£¬lycier is my club leader£¬you can ask him£¬ I have know nothing about that¡£ sorr

 

And then you logged out.

[lycier]

When I told you that" you mean that you cancel our match? you said to me "Yes",so I was angry.

however I know that there was some misunderstandings on the language now.

lycier (Lobby): ÎʺòÓ

->lycier: do you have your team members here? Mine are all here

 

lycier (Lobby): You have no good faith, I will be terminated with your activities.very very saddness

 

(name removed) : ok. I told him

 

 

..........................................................

 

I had - and have- no idea at all why you would think I was cancelling the matches when I was asking you for your player's names so I could set the match.

 

I would not have continued on about this but calling me a liar is absolutely unacceptable. You had a chance to clarify things with someone who spoke both chinese and english and chose instead to go off in a tantrum. To then try to say it was just a misunderstanding is not sufficient.

[barmar]

I have a feeling this is where the misunderstanding happened:

 

lycier (Lobby): you mean we don't hold match for today?

->lycier: yes we do today and in 12 hours both are scheduled

You meant "Yes, we do hold match", lycier thought you meant "Yes, we don't hold match".

 

Some languages have different forms of "yes" for these two meanings, English doesn't.

A full sentence reply would have made it clear-

I am not asking to cancel the match.

 

I assume this was from Onoway- what`s his first language?

Lobby (or any instant messaging) is a bad place to arrange if people don't make sure before getting annoyed.

that's why I got someone to speak to him who speaks his language. Apparently that didn't help.

 

It's also difficult to explain anything when someone refuses to speak to you and even leaves the site so you can't know what they have understood and what they haven't.
