Die 26. Ausgabe wurde mit 17 Spielern absolviert
Wer einen isolierten Damenbauern fürchtet, sollte Schach aufgeben.

In the 4th round before the end of the 2nd season, the placings have changed again. @samostically was able to increase his game performance again and was victorious with 7 wins out of 9 games. Our newcomer @voiceoff was able to place himself in the points scores and thus had a successful debut. @iobates has sent its first livestream today, I'm looking forward to the recording. Here is the result:
In der 4.ten Runde vor Ende der 2.ten Saison haben sich die Platzierungen noch einmal stark verändert. @samostically konnte seine Spielleistung erneut steigern und wurde mit 7 Siegen aus 9 Partien Sieger. Unser Neuzugang @voiceoff konnte sich in den Punkterängen platzieren und hatte somit einen gelungenen Einstand. @iobates hat heute seinen ersten Livestream gesendet, ich freue mich schon auf die Aufzeichnung. Hier ist das Resultat:
