Is it too niaive to think that some proper decision & announcement could have been made within FIVE MINUTES? Or if there is a time zone difference then within TWELVE HOURS? Do dozens (hundreds? thousands?) of us just wait & show up, in my case at 1:30 in the morning, hoping there will be a game, wondering if things are in place to complete that game. Do we watch for 1/2 an hour & then wait while nothing happens AGAIN? Gees, what is it with ClubK? They can't plan ahead, they can't plan for contingencies, if a line goes down we wait for days for a decision. How on earth do these people play chess? It's as if the Xie Jun - Junior match doesn't matter to the fans. And it does. I dunno, "Can't bowl, can't throw!" (a Aussie insult) see ya's, I'm going to bed, Tina Long
