True. Mind you, the selection groups were designed to keep teams very even in strength.
Better luck next time Pavel, and Merry Christmas.

Cheers,
Graham.

Best,
Harun - I'm having difficulty getting Jonny to work under ChessGUI. I hope you don't mind me giving you AnMon 5.75 instead.

Cheers, Graham.

No problem.

Best,

My team narrowly got by Pavel's, but things aren't looking good so far
against your team.

I've never had much luck in these tournaments when I've run them previously, so you never know.

Thanks Nick. This is the third one I've run. Thought it would be good to get interested members involved in a bit of fun.

Swami's team looks strong as an Ox. I almost wish I had picked it. But, nostalgia set in with a couple of my choices

If my team manages to overcome Adam's, it will face Swami's lot in the semis.
