Hello Engin, I hope you are aware that Tornado is playing in TCEC Division 3 as well.

Congratulations Engin. Tornado 4.4 seems to be a nice improvement.
Top spot = automatic promotion, so Tornado will play in Division 1 for the next series.
Scorpio will get a playoff match against Crafty to determine the final Division 1 spot.

Dirty survived which is the main thing.
