Comments:
A fantastic round! The standings are very exciting now with only 2 rounds to go.
In Round 8 we saw the Blue and Green Teams win comfortably vs
the Violet and Red Teams. The Olive Team narrowly won vs the
Orange Team.
Please download the games and play through them, many of them are interesting as usual.
In Round 9 we have the big clash between number 1 and 2 in the
standings, the Green and Blue Teams. It's gonna be a wild one!
Feel free to leave some feedback, it's always appreciated.
