Who the ---- are they?! Are you seriously talking to me that way?!
I train with a 2600+ GM. Can you even begin to comprehend that?
And by the way, Zuker and I are friends, so please stop ingratiating yourself....

All, I can say is that I made a mistake. The original intention of "They" was the players who voted Nf3. This last statement was a "Blunder" on my part. I was looking for a better explaination for the move and I may have alienated a potiental friend.
PS - Training with a GM is better than I.

Hey, hey, let's keep a friendly tone in this thread. I'm not sure what we all should be doing to make that happen but I'm certain it involves the use of smileys!

Can someone please summarize what has been discussed? And please don't give reams of variations, just the ideas.

I think this post is a reasonable summary [my view, of course.]

And this post is where you can find several high-level games using the quick O-O-O idea I mentioned.

I had a chance to play this from the white side last night against my trainer, (40 plus games of 1 and 3 minute blitz.) As a d4 player, this would normally be wayyy outside of my comfort zone, however I was able to quickly assimilate Zuker's Opening Training from yesterday to the point where I could get far enough into the position where my tactics, and endgames were of use.
Thanks again to Zuker for the new addition to my arsenal!

So, has anyone changed their mind about Bd3 or Nf3?
What is the current tally? (I know this feels like a jury room, rather than a voting booth, but what i do find interesting is this: Which move will we find GUILTY (worthy) of being played by us?) There is more excitement here, as well as discussion, than a good football game!!!
And May it continue so (that way)! (Sounding Upbeat, Hopeing to make more friends, rather than creating alienation)

5 for Nf3 against 3 for Bd3 when last I counted, don't think it's changed in the meantime.
