Phalent, Apsophos:
What is your experience? You have a low post count and I'd prefer to see people with 3+ games here [but as long as we have free spots everyone is allowed to play].
Jarkko:
I think newbie is someone with less than 3 multiplayer games [or at least 1 game with end-game experience, some blitzes are a plus]. Someone could maybe make a test "Are you a newbie?"
But if you know how communion [and reverse ones too] work, how to make and counter SCs etc you are not a newbie.
