One thing we should probably settle before we start: how much table talk is allowed? For instance, should I be allowed to tell Shane "Hey, Charlotte's about to take your rook." or "Better capture that knight for me, or Taylor can finish me in three moves."? Personally I'd rather we didn't allow table talk beyond "Nice move!" and the like, but I'll play along with whatever we agree to.
I'd prefer using the personal messenger for things like "Charlotte's going to capture the White Bishop with her own Bishop" or "if Dr. Egregious moves his Queen to h08 then Taylor's going to have to spend a turn getting out of check", but it's Shane's choice.
All I know is, I'm going to sit back, wait patiently for my turn while listening to

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin and enjoy the match.
