Dear Djordje,

There is one  - I admit very sarcastic - aspect in this game:
By actually PLAYING this game (4 moves or not), Bosboom is in for the
prize money!

Actually, Paul van der Sterren should do the same: Withdraw his refusal
of playing and then resign after 2 moves or something. In that case he
didn't refuse to play and he will have his share of the prize money.

You see, how competely stupid this is? Because more players will follow
Bosboom's example. And we can be sure this 'experiment' will NEVER be
repeated in future.
