Greetings to all fellow chesplayers and lovers of the game everywhere!!

I am proposing a Thematic involving one of the oldest and most respected openings in chess: The Orthodox Queen's Gambit Declined, which is brought about by the following moves:
1. d4, d5
2. c4. e6
3. Nc3, Nf6
4. Nf3, Be7
5. Bg5, 0-0
6. e3, Nbd7

I am thinking an 8- player field, so the first 7 players that let me know they are interested to join shall be included!
As an experiment, If we have enough interest betwen high and lower rated players, I may split the groups into say over 1900 and under 1900 rated players to make it more interesting for everyone!?

So over 1900 and also under 1900 rated players let me know and I shall keep the Net Chess community up to date as to what I shall post the thematic(s) and who is going to be participating!

Good Luck and always, Good Chess to you all!
