So, it's over!

a BIG thank you for all who attended: we had to scrape to get to 8 players last year, this year we had 16. So next year it's either 32 or 8 again .

the final standings:



to finish, I'd like a word of feedback on the 4-games concept. Personally I had a huge headache yesterday-evening; running the tournament and playing four games (and having 3 small children :? ) proved to be a challenge. How did everybody else think about it? Should I stick to the four games, or go back to the standard three games? Did everybody had a headache, or was it just me?

great tourney, very well organised (even if 4games, we finished 20 minutes earlier as planned!)
