Always an option :) Maybe next tournament I bring a laptop and hope
my luck turns :))

I will write about this is my article, but basically, in the actual
tournament people were much more relaxed about the TD decisions than on
CCC :)

Do not forget that Mr. Zwanzger was a very strong and experienced chessplayer
himself (higher rated than Vincent I believe). He did what he thought was right,
the other players somewhat disagreed but understood the decision, and the
internet audience instantly wanted his head :)
