Yeah - the last two rounds were cruel for Rodin.
However, with Hermann coming up to the 2 year cut-off mark and with a new version of Rodin having just been released, there is still a good chance that Rodin might play in Division 4 of the next series.

Thank you very much for the tournament Graham. It is true it was a pity for Rodin to suffer that end-of-tournament. Hope next v6.0 will do better next time.
