Thanks to everyone who took part and well done to Mick, a new winner on the cup.
Please note that this competition was unrated and hence will not affect glicko ratings.
(But it meant we got a lot of DBMM v1.1 testing done during the league)
As usual this will be an Open list event with 4 rounds, 1 each in October, November, January and February.
Rob Brennan will co-ordinate this event.
welcome to the DGG Winter League, this year all games will be UNrated
to allow for v1.1 playtesting (if both players wish) and for continued DBMM learning/tutorial games.
I used a RANDOM draw for the first round.
The first round pairings are, all games to be completed by the end of Oct:
