The first question to ask is, "is Thorsten having fun with his tournaments?".
Nobody is forcing him to run them, so clearly he does enjoy doing this. The
second question to ask is, "is anyone else interested in Thorsten's results?".
It would appear that some people *are* interested in his results, as there are
usually some replies when he posts an update.

I think this brief analysis "proves" that Thorsten is having fun and that
some people are interested in his results. In and of itself, that makes the
whole thing worthwhile, IMHO.
