5) IMPORTANT UPDATE:

From time to time I won't be able to submit my move exactly at 11.00 EST / 4:00 AM GMT. On that occasion, I'll do it earlier. This won't have any impact on your voting deadline: you'll just have more time to ponder and discuss. I'll accept all votes from the moment I posted my move till your voting closes. I hope you understand.

I'm fine with lightman getting to go next. After all, she is a WGM.

Sounds good, ill play on the blackside. By the way, if you are a WGM, can I get some help on my openings via PM? I have two tournaments in january, and a positive score in both will get me my remaining FM norms

That is so cool and totally random. Out of curiosity lightman, how did a WGM end up on a starcraft website?
