I always try to be present when these games are played, but late Friday night, my mother called and told me she had just found out one of her very good family friends was in the hospital about 300+ miles from us, and would I be willing to drive her down to visit as the illness was very serious. I told her sure and we left saturday morning. We got back late Sunday afternoon and the first thing I found was an email from a networking person telling me we had had a router failure that made it almost impossible to get a packet out of our network here. It was fixed late Saturday night. I have not yet had time to look up the round by round results to see what happened to the games in progress while that was going on. I knew it had 4 draws and 2 wins from the first weekend, for a score of 4.0. Since it apparently finished with a score of 5.5, it apparently scored 1.5 out of five games, so it certainly didn't do very well...
