Sorry but in timecontrol 60m + 15s was the freestyle Tourn the best. I was
analyses with the best engines and the winner was a team with two men on 3
Computers with the best engines.

The winner ZackS lost only one game from 27! In this Tournament played many GMs
(like Sergey Volkov and another GMs. It played a old corr. Chess WCh too).

I belive that in the Freestyle Disciplin of Chess not ever wins the
Grandmasters! ZackS played famous, I remember to see fantastic moves of ZackS
and another players too!

Yes, the "PAL/CSS Freestyle" was the strongest Tournament all times on
timecontrol  60m + 15s (the Elo Rating in such tournaments is not important, see
here as example, the win of 6 computers against the very strong corr. Chess GM
Arno Nickel)!

Congrats to ZackS, this team played fantastical Chess.
