What do you like about checkers?: I enjoy learning more and more as i go. despite its alleged simplicity the game is incredibly complex and rewarding.

JR what a fantastic piece of news. Being on tv can only help get more people to watch and/or attend.
I hope you guys get a great turn out. The tv presenter got slaughtered but i think he knew he didnt have much of a chance against mr McClintock :)

is there any way to save that video in www.youtube.com so that you can link it to your website in the future?
I believe if you let it be externally hosted eventually they will kill the link. It would be really nice to save it and link it to www.nccheckers.org :)
obviously i do not know how to do this.... but i am sure that there is somebody out there with enough expertise to enlighten us.

cheers

Great stuff. We need to do more of that. However, computers have mastered the game when you refer to Chinook.

get a program called jdownloader... it will download links from anything from video to mp3 to file sharing website links. It is very useful
