    it certainly would be interesting to see an important final:

    gatecrasher v quirine

    they are level: 3 draws and 4 wins each so far.

    Sorry to disappoint you :-) Well actually I'm not sorry, having won the tournament!
    Maybe next year...
    I just claimed the time-out against sastorey since I needed the 3 points to win alone.

    Congratulations, Otto!
    I was happy to reach the final this year and to get thrashed
    by you as usual, and I was impressed by your play and the
    fact that you've now won back to back championships.
    Well done is an understatement, really!

    It is a very deserving win, Otto, especially in light of those soft points I gained from Time Travel. You were unbeaten in the final round.

    It is quite an amazing achievement for you to win this tournament twice in a row!

    Good luck in this year's battle.

    You both played some very nice chess in the last round - good show, and congratulations to Quirine.

    I actually think I like the 0/60 setup...I think it's my new preference even! Of course, I'll have to wait and see, because I have gotten into some endgames that last for a long time...

    Right now I just hope to make it into round 2, hopefully I can pick up at least one win from steve... 🙂

    Congratulations Quirine!! WOW, back to back champion!! You are proving to be the Roger Feddera of RHP!! 😲😲

    One question though, why hasn't the tournament displayed your victory? Normally it would say 'Quirine Wins!' but it doesn't? 😕
