Ed was so nice to give my tournament a location,
so that all participants and interested readers have
a place where to follow the tournament.

Have fun...

i will - aside from this - still post in between results
or live-games from time to time.

in the moment Nimzo8 plays against Junior6a.
so far nimzo plays really good chess. i am surprised.
i was never satisfied with predecessors of nimzo8.
they had very typical preprocessor behaviour (moving a
rook in the first ply of main-line, and moving the piece
back in the rest of the main-line, unharmonic evaluation
jumps for no reason other than changing preprocessor
data/stages) i know chrilly knew, the austrian-team knew.
but for whatever
reason, chrilly had no time or was unwilling to change
this behaviour.

but nimzo8 is IMO (out of 2 sample 40/120 games) different.
the main lines make more sense. we will see how this continues.
this tournament seems to be made as a tournament to change my
own prejudices. well. nothing against changing them. as far
as we change them, we learn.

thank you.
