Help
As a Precision player I'm often somewhat frustrated by the lack of fellow precision players to play with. So I thought I'd start a list. Please reply with the following:
Your BBO Username
Your skill level
Your timezone/usual playing hours
Update: WE'RE ON THE WEB!
Website looks a bit nice now: http://bridge.tylere...com/bboprec.php

Precision was the first system I ever learned, albiet a now apparently outdated version (circa 1970 Goren wrote a book on CC Wei's Precision). I barely play it now (and don't have the book handy), but would like to. I'd probably need some help though.
I consider myself Advanced-Intermediate. I'm on most Australian evenings and often at other times on Australian weekends and holidays. My (main) BBO ID is 'MrDodgy'.
I have some webspace.

intermediate (but I do know a lot about bidding theory)
Mainly sunday about noon UMT, occasionaly weekdays evening (thu-fri)
Do not play asking bids (but would be willing to learn in a regular partnership)
I like classical Wei and Reese styles.

Peter Leighton (pbleighton on BBO)
In reality, strong intermediate. On BBO, I label myself Advanced to get better games, and to synchronize myself with BBO Grade Inflation.
I tend to play on the weekends, though sometimes during the week (U.S. Eastern Standard Time).
I will play the flavor you like. I currently play 10-12 NT NV 1-3, 14-16 NT else, 2C = 6+ cards, 1D can be 1 card.

I play both a canape club method and my own hybrid method codenamed "Phoenix", the 16th version of KLP. I consider myself advanced plus, because I refuse to even consider myself "expert" due to many reasons.
I'm in the D.C. area, so Eastern Time Zone, but I'm a night owl as well.

- Interests:My personal interests are my family and my friends. I am extremely concerned about the lives and futures of the kids (and their families) that I work with. I care about the friends I have made on BBO. Also, I am extremely concerned about the environment/ ecology/ wildlife/ the little planet that we call Earth. How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?

started playing precision back in 1970.
play wei and reese versions, plus my own version that is easy to play but has a few quirks. Am very interested in matchpoint precision, have read viking but can't remember much and not knowledgable about or comfortable with relay systems. Am familiar with currified precision but think that it requires a lot of partnership discussion, find KLP to be very interesting: so wei or reese with asking bids is probably easiest for me to play (with 14-16 1NT)
I have no idea how to rank my game. some might say that "rank" is a good description Some might say expurt,some might say beginner,some might say"moronic". I am notorious for being able to find the only line to godown 2 in contracts where everyone else are making over-tricks. Dependson amount of sleep.
So, call me advanced plus.
How frequently or the time that I play online varies so much. am located on east coast USA
