There are six games from the second round still going. I expect to start the final round in about two weeks.
Before that time - if you'd like to select your army for Chess with Different Armies, please either post your selection here or send me an email if you'd rather your opponent not know your selection before he makes his. Anyone who has not made a selection before the games are assigned will be assigned an army at random. In the case of random assignment, I'll make sure both sides are playing different armies. If both players make selections, however, and choose the same army, so be it. The only army choices available are the four official armies, which are all pretty closely matched: Fabulous FIDEs, Nutty Nights, Colorbound Clobberers, and Remarkable Rookies. (The experimental armies may not be balanced, and even Betza's own Meticulous Mashers is way too powerful.)
