I'm guessing co-champions, based on the fact that both previous CCTs had 3x7
point scores.

Fruit

Germany [Spike+Yace+SOS+Jonny]

7.5

Movei

Frenzee (who had a bit of bad luck last year and is due for a good performance)

My prediction is that Zappa beats Movei with a beautiful Knight sacrifice after
Movei opens with 1. a3 e5 2. h3
