How is it possible to add 6.5 points in 6 games?

Guess: possibly because of replayed games due to the version upgrade of RookieMonster?!

Correct.

I have to ask , what is behind the name "Elephant Rides". Nice name, I like it , it caught my attention when I first saw it.

(At the risk of coming across as Graham's spokesperson ) Jumbo, afaik, is sometimes a descriptive adjective or even a nickname associated with elephants.

To be honest, when I saw the name of the tournament I immediately expected to see Hannibal among the participants, but it's probably more than a little too strong for this rating level.
