Title: Bad Pun Required Post by: thetank on August 11, 2006, 07:40:54 PM I'm into online correspondence chess at the moment. (You get a week to make a move kinda thing)
It's a great game, helps the brain ticking over. The site I play on, they've got these things called clans. Groups of players that challenge other groups of players to matches of erm...chess. Anyway, long story short. I've made the Poker Clan. Problem is, that's a boring-ass name. Does anyone have any ideas what I could call it? I need a name that is still connected to Poker in an obvious way.

Title: Re: Bad Pun Required Post by: Swordpoker on August 12, 2006, 01:13:20 AM Is the website Red Hot Pawn?
If it is, my user name is fencingcoach. Fancy a game? Title: Re: Bad Pun Required Post by: thetank on August 12, 2006, 02:28:45 AM It is, Red Hot Pawn.
I do like check-mates, made me smile. Looking for something a little more pokery though. In chess circles, that would just say chess-y chess-y. I want something that says chess-y pokah. Thaks for all your help everyone. I've plumped for "Check or bet?" for the time being. Hell yeah fencingcoach. Oooh, and feel free to join the clan man. 8) 12 BarBlues and Moritzey are also RHP members. I beat Moritzey once, but 12Barblues always kicks my ass.

My name on there is thetank444. Once you've signed up etc, just click on "find player" (the 3rd icon along) and look me up. Click on my name, then click where it says "challenge thetank444" Any time is good for me. I live on t'internet. You can either do the whole thing in one sitting on a date set. Or, as you are a busy man, just do the odd move here and there every couple of days (correspondence chess style-e) |
