The wait is over. The new batch of
Chess t-shirts are being made in black and green. (Sorry no blue for this run.)
Along with two brand-new designs. We're doing a hot all-over print of the Understood "U" on the back and front of the first tee.

And a brand new practice "jersey" with Understood graphics printed on the front and back.

Plus, look for a custom strap (made by the great folks over at
KM straps) with the "like chess with guns" Chess design on it to drop soon.
All this new stuff is going to be super limited runs, so grab it while you can. I'll update the site as soon as everything is available.

As part of the Grinch's army for Strategy Plus' annual Toys for Tots "Santa Vs. Grinch", the 7 Deadly Lemons came out 20 members strong to steamroll the competition in East Hampton, Connecticut this past weekend. Aided by other Grinchling teams the 5 Points Gang, Horror Show and Team Extreme Measures the anti-Santa contingent came out ahead in this chilly altercation.
Santa-Bot (from Futurama, look it up!) took home the MVP for the Grinch side, with his incredible costume and constant spouting of dialog from the show before he hammered the enemy with paint.
The Lemons had about 12 members in jerseys while another 7 new members joined the fray. We're happy to welcome our new Lemons from down at Paintball Arena, "His Lemonence" and "Lemon Pepper Chicken". And of course all the other new guys, once they pick their lemony names (hint, hint).

There is a young guns 3-man down at Paintball Arena today and our boys took 5th place. I know there was some grumbling about calls and such, but all in all, a nice solid showing for their first tourney. Congratz, guys.

Well all the gear made it in one piece. The nice folks at Disney delivered all 300 pounds of stuff to our room once we checked in. Then we loaded what would fit into our rental Saturn Vue and headed over to the Wise World of Sports complex.
After a wrong turn or two we made it to the parking lot and pulled into the vendor area. The Disney attendants were skeptical at first that we could park there since we didn't have a PSP Vender pass, but all the boxes in the car convinced them we were legit and I promised to bring my pass over as soon as I got it.
I left Jane and Sam with the car and headed out to find registration where I was supposed to meet Keely Watson and pick up my vendor kit. I saw the ticket tent so I stopped and asked where registration was and this nice young girl with a clipboard gave me directions. It as in the total opposite direction form where I was. So I turned around and headed over.
I couldn't find it. I was was wandering around for about 10 minutes up and down the dealer area with no luck. I happened upon Alex Fraige and Ryan Greenspan from Team Dynasty and asked them if they knew where it was, but Ryan said," No" and Alex thought it was near the front. So I headed back to the entry of the dealer area. As I was walking back I saw the same girl with the clipboard that gave me the original directions and she pointed me towards the general direction.
Still wandering about 5 minutes later I gave up and called Keely on her cell phone. Turns out I was about 20 feet from the registration tent and headed right towards it. I stayed on the phone with Keeley as I continued walking and sure enough walking towards me on her cell is the same girl I asked for directions at the ticket booth and just spoke with 5 minutes before.
Yeah it was once of those days.
Fast-forward and the booth is set up and people are loving the stuff.
We're right between Encounter and Gangstar, so make sure you stop by.
