A Splendid and Prosperous 2026 to all!

Post by John Upham » Wed Dec 31, 2025 6:38 pm

I would like to wish all members of this place and all visitors to this place a most congenial and splendid 2026!

A slightly selfish wish would be to see greater engagement of the ECF with this place and its members.

Meanwhile, a huge thanks to Carl H. for continuing to feed his time, money and effort into the EC Forum meter. :D

Here's hoping 2026 is better in all sorts of ways, including chess wise (this year ending on a sombre note for obvious reasons)

The specific ban on ECF Directors and Officers posting here has gone. I didn't see the going of it, but it's not there now.

Seconded on both counts.
