gkneil ends the winless run with victory over Strachanovski in an entertaining game

Yeah, good game, I went baws oot attack at the end, one false move from you and I could've taken it.

Well played.

Aye, had to tread carefully at the close.

I think GPars still has to finish games with me, beef2711 and invergowrie.  
 

I think Eindhoven Dee and Beef2711 are safe in the top two.  Leaving myself and GPars fighting for the playoff.

I've still got a game v Gparsfan, I saw he had a few games on the go so I thought I'd wait until he sent me an invite. None came, so I've send him an invite now.

Division B

@DeeTillEhDeh had the title wrapped up long ago and well done to @Gordon EFon automatic promotion

@Scorge will go into the Div A play offs

Turns out my point against NTP was handy after all as I escape automatic relegation by 1 point

This is how Division A stands at the moment

Congrats to @Ludo*1 on a maiden season top flight title win

However, I still have to confirm who finishes in the automatic relegation spots out of @Bigmouth Strikes Again and @Cardinal Richelieu

I need to work out who won their 4 games in the fewest moves and I can only see Biggie’s wins against Cardinal and Richey

I can’t see any of Cardinals victories on the App

Care to do the math gents and put us out of our misery?

I’ll let you do the invite as you’ll know what colour each team should go and I’d just be guessing.

I think this is correct:

I beat gkneil on 15th March in 20 moves

The problem is that my other victories were over RicheyEdwards and madwullie. But I played them both in multiple friendlies so it's very difficult to identify which ones were official matches. I'm happy to be relegated cos I'm totally out my depth in this league. Just lost 5 friendlies to @madwullie in quick succession. My mojo has gone :(

You beat me in 18 moves and 15 moves in our competitive games.

For next season, perhaps a better tie-break method would be the "Sonneborn-Berger score" which is frequently used in chess tournaments. You basically add up the final score of all the players you beat, and add half the final score of all the players you drew with.

Alternatively, and I think this would actually be my preference, you could set up a rapid and/or blitz tie-break between the players. The way a lot of professional tournaments do it is to start with two rapid games (maybe a 15 minute time limit) with each player having one game with white - if it's still a draw they go down to two (or four) 5 minute blitz games with the same format and then finally an "armageddon" game, where white gets 5 minutes, black gets 4 minutes, but black only needs to draw.

Good idea 👍🏻
