Congratulations to Fabian (FabChess author) for winning this division and gaining promotion for the next series.

Thanks to all who took an interest, and again, it was great to see some of the engine authors visiting the broadcast.

Gratz Fabi!

I ended up watching a lot of it and had a blast. A bit painful to see Weiss suffering from poor time management in cyclic, but it's been fixed so Weiss will be back stronger next time!

Thanks Graham!

Thanks for this tourney Graham! Fab overperformed pretty hard, but still almost managed to throw the lead away in the end
