Perhaps Russ wants to present you the championship personally - so keep a look out for threads of this nature.

Russ did mention something about setting up a specific title for the site championship. Whether that is the reason for the delay, i don't know but it's possible...

Congrats Cludi!! 😀

Is 2007 Champion not good enough? 😕

No, I think cludi should get a special GM title for this site as well. And also a big trophy animation in his profile for the rest of the year (even next year if he wins again).

Would it be like the World Cup if you win enough times you get to keep the trophy?

And what extras did Quirine get for winning it two years running?

Not disrespecting Cludi and his win, but why doesn't "champion" say all that needs to be said? Why does everything have to be over the top with balloons and banners and bloody firecrackers these days? You'll be wanting a national holiday declared for it next 😛

It's hardly rocket science. Figure it out.

I'm stumped. Does it need to be added manually?

Now there is a new game mod team, will this tournament be dealt with or is it to be forgotten? 😕

It should be forgotten now - the only important one now is the 2008 because I am in it!

Who is the 2007 Champion anyway?
😕

If cludi's games are removed from the round ... then English Tal and Gatecrasher are equal on points.
