Arasan won the tournament, Nightmare is runner up, Lunar became third.

jackychess had problems, Eendje decided to forfeit him from the tournament, hopefully it will work without problems next time.

Nightmare was running on a new Zen5 Treadripper, but it had some weird scheduling problems, I still have to find out what is causing this, I suspect it to be the Windows scheduler.
