Hello everyone.
A bit busy week but finally time for the results and rewards for the 2nd Chess960 tournament. Maybe late announcement or low rewards resulted in not so big participation but hey - at the end of the day some chess was played. Of course more people means more chess and fun. So some modifications may occur.
Next tournament should be at the last Saturday of the February and that means next week Saturday it is time for Chess960.
Winner of second Chess960 torunament is @maestroask (Odnoobraz_bcm). In the first he was second place so nice upgrade. Congratulations.
Second place goes @kintokris (Jonbellionfan). I was surprisingly third.
4th was @giuatt07 (guisep73) and 5th @stayoutoftherz (stayoutoftherz).
4 Hive to the winner
3 Hive to the second place
2 Hive to the third place
and top 5 gets each 100 ecency points.
1 Hive for biggest upset @anli win against @odic3o1 (by rating @odic3o1 is stronger and in Chess960 his rating is not yet settled so it counts due to higher blitz rating)
Also since there was not that much participants so all others outside of top 5 that played enough games will get 50 ecency points each.
Total rewards 10 Hive and 650 ecency points.

Ecency points
More Chess or Freestayle Chess (Chess960)
Today Vincent Kaymer won 2025 Weissenhaus Freestyle Chess Grand Slam defeating Fabiano Caruana in finals. Maybe surprise maybe not. Good play gets rewards. This format is fun to watch and it seems there is more to come.

Thanks for having me. Unfortunately I missed yesterday's 960 tournament, as Fridays is not my best day for playing in the evening. Looking forward to more of this.
