Congrats on winning this edition of the 4K tournament, though it is maddening to see it sometimes fail to convert KQ-k and KR-k!

In the final against ice4 it even failed to win KQR vs K and first sacrificed the rook and later drew by the 50 move rule.
ice4 was the champion and won 12.5-11.5 thanks for this game.

I can see CCRL adjudicate games and do not continue the game until mate so rating of CCRL may be wrong.
