Let it be known this first day of Two-Thousand and Seven, that I, the great Pontiac challenges every member of this esteemed club to a battle.
I wish to play each and every member this year all three of the following games....

I will gladly play either side in the scenario, and will allow my opponents to choose the optional rules. I ask my opponents to register the games, please.
It is hoped everyone will indulge me, and the club will then have a sample database to compare the various members against a common opponent. As you can see I have selected three small, short scenarios to atract as many participants as possible.
This challenge will be hence forth known as the ...
<b>"I beat Al in 2007", a personal impromptu tournament.</b>
Perhaps our esteemed ribbon makers will create ribbons for those who participate, and for those who do indeed beat me.
So who wants to brag at TillerCon II that "I beat Al in 2007"?
(please make this a sticky ... for awhile at least)
