Congratulations to James (Prophet author) for winning a tight tournament.

Thanks to everybody who followed the tournament.

[jswaff]

Close one! I haven't been able to look at all of Prophet's games, but I know it got very lucky at least once. The last game against Hedgehog ended in a draw, but was dead lost to my eyes - Hedgehog was 3 pawns up in an opposite colored bishop endgame but just didn't seem to want to push a pawn to avoid the draw-by-rep.

Thanks Graham for running the tournament. I appreciate all the time you put into it.
