State of the 4545 League
by @SpiteKnight
Round 1 of the League is over. Teams 'All you need is Luft' and 'Ruy Flopez' are leaders without having lost a game on any of their boards. Competition is getting towards its climax in Lonewolf Season 10. After the passage of 9 rounds, @Kuhfighter and @Journey_to_NM lead the Open section with 7.5 points each, with two rounds remaining. @SpiteKnight with 8 points leads the U1800 section, meanwhile @lakinwecker is hot on his ass.
It was brought to my attention after the publication of last week's Ledger that we do in fact have another team name referring to pineapples on pizza like last season, 'Pineapple Pizza Connoisseurs Reloaded.' A factual error on my part for which I apologize. Another failed sequel like 'Mean Girls 2' on the team's part, for which they don't.
We have some updates by @alex_slow on Rapid Battle, please join #rapid-battle on Slack to know more;
The tables have been updated. @Assassin_in_White and @moistvonlipwig will fight for the 1st place. The format is 4 15+10 games and usual tie-breaks if needed.
@erinyu and @Supermaths will play for 3rd on Sunday at 14:00 UTC
Only two pairs left, each pair will play 4 games at least.
I don't know if next rapid-battle happens since summer is pretty busy time for me, so I am not going to organize it soon and did not think about a survey. But, sure, anyone can run 2nd battle if he/she wants...
