I'm logged in, but I won't be around to join Myrddin into the tournament. Hopefully Lisbeth can do that for me. Thank you!

ChessSystemTal won the tournament, just like before, it seems the engine improved quite a lot.
Wasp also gets stronger and stronger each day.
This time Skipper won from Sargon and didn't end last, next time it will be even better.

[RubiChess]

Sorry for the problem and delay when Rubi played Wasp.
I used my notebook for the first time at online tourney, had to leave for some minutes and the notebook went to standby.
Thank good it immediately reconnected and started playing when it woke up.

Will fix the power saving settings for next tournament.
Or better return to desktop computer.

Regards, Andreas
