Steem Blitz Chess Tournament January 05th ... And the winner is ... (video commentary by @schamangerbert)
The 65th edition was played with 14 players!
You sit at the board and suddenly your heart leaps. Your hand trembles to pick up the piece and move it. But what chess teaches you is that you must sit there calmly and think about whether its really a good idea and whether there are other better ideas.
Stanley Kubrick
Die 65. Ausgabe wurde mit 14 Spielern gespielt!
Du sitzt am Brett und plötzlich springt dein Herz. Deine Hand zittert, um die Figur aufzuheben und sie zu bewegen. Das Schachspiel lehrt Dich jedoch, dass Du ruhig da sitzen und darüber nachdenken müßt, ob es wirklich eine gute Idee ist und ob es andere bessere Ideen gibt.
Stanley Kubrick
The 5th season has begun! From now on, the individual seasons will last only 3 months, which promises more competition. The time format will also change quite often, but more in a random way, you could say, as I like it :) Good luck to you all! Here is the result:
Die 5. Saison hat begonnen! Ab jetzt werden die einzelnen Saisonen nur noch 3 Monate dauern, das verspricht mehr Wettbewerb. Das Zeitformat wird sich auch des öfteren ändern, aber eher in zufälliger Art und Weise, man könnte auch sagen, so wie es mir gefällt :) Viel Erfolg euch allen! Hier ist das Resultat:

This was a cool edition. A few new players joined this time and some of them are strong. This season will be interesting. See you!
Ich konnte heute nicht, da Opernabend. Ab nächstes Mal dann wieder :) Die Konkurrenz wird ja immer härter, wie es aussieht. Ev. könnte man sich überlegen, das Turnier in 2 Klassen zu teilen. Es macht ja echt keinen Sinn, dass jemand mit über 2000 gegen einen 1500er spielt.
See this format as a community event.
It makes a lot of sense to play against stronger opponents as you learn much more, then from playing the same level over and over again. The stronger player has to prove his power and may give some hints to improve the play of the weaker ones. I am still waiting for more posts from the players.
Happy New Year to all chess players!
Have an exciting year!
