Ah, better luck next time. I didn't expect Aristarch to perform this well. I retract my criticism against poor old Aristarch :?
Looking forward to finals.
@Nick: Good luck, Nick! You do have balanced set of equally strong engines.
Swami... let's hope we have a close one. Best of luck to you as well!

Congratulations Swami, for a while it looked very close. Then my team collapsed :) It looked as if they lost about 5 or 6 games in a row :shock:

Thanks Granham for a holding a fun tournament.

best regards

Yep It was a close fight, you had an edge at the start, then it was almost equal and finally my team got lucky. Better luck next time!
