    Thanks Levin. Yes, it must be, surely. Title decided by tie-break, 3rd place just half a point behind, and only 2 and half points (of a maximum 12) separating the top 5/7ths of the table. I don't think we've had a final table anything like as compressed as that before. I'll be checking soon, mind, because I plan to do some data collation from all 16 tournaments.

      Bloody hell, fourth! In a tournament of more than five people (no offence, Bored)! I'll take that.

        Oh, yeah, and well done EEG.

          Cheers Sam. Congrats on your 4th place. it wasn't the first time you finished above TPC - you managed that once before, in OTF11 - but it was the first time you finished ahead of Wouter.

            Quite. And only half a point off the podium, too.

                      I'll post stats in a while showing how players' percentages changed, comparing the first 4, second 4, third 4 and most recent 4 tournaments. But first just some stats about titles:

                      Alex has 6 titles (from 9 tourneys) - including max points in 4 cases
                      IT has 4 titles (from 4 tourneys!) - including max points in 2 cases
                      ad hoc has 2 titles (from 5 tourneys)
                      EEG has 2 titles (from 15 tourneys)
                      Etienne has 1 title (from 14 tourneys) - although the chess.com site won't have recognised it, as it treated the tourney as if it were a first round.
                      Levin has 1 title (from 15 tourneys)

                      ... and Wouter has an "extra round" title.

                                Finally, the top 5 of the "total OTF tournament points" leader-board. Pretty meaningless obviously as it's a mix of how many tournaments - and of what size - we've played and what our percentages have been, but for what it's worth:

                                1. Etienne 153.5 points (from 226 matches)
                                2. EEG 140.5 points (from 228 matches)
                                3. Wouter 137.5 points (from 248 matches)
                                4. Alex 122.5 points (from 146 matches)
                                5. Levin 121.5 points (from 232 matches)

                                  Who is up for OTF 17 in the new year?

                                  Comment


                                    I've signed up for the official tournament (as I see has ad hoc) which involves pools of 12, so 22 concurrent games which will start on January 1st. I imagine it'll quieten down after a couple of weeks, but I can't see myself being able to focus on otf as well.

                                        Looks as if we're several players shy of a tournament then, for January at least.

                                          Sorry, been a while since I've been on here. I'm up for it, any time any place.

                                            Given Etienne's restrictions, and given that I am travelling in the final two weeks of January, shall we say that we start setting up OTF #17 in the first week of February?
