This round of Chess960 clearly goes to voiceoff85 (@voiceoff), who won superior with 16 points. Our regular winner SecularSagacity (@ape-5th) had to stand at the cheese counter while not taking a defeat, but could play only 4 games. I am especially happy about the good placings of evgchess (@evgsk) and ralk98 (@ralk98). In the comments we will vote on the format of the last round of this season, to which I will submit proposals. Here is the result:
Diese Runde mit Schach960 geht eindeutig an voiceoff85 (@voiceoff), der überlegen mit 16 Punkten gewinnen konnte. Unser normaler Dauergewinner SecularSagacity (@ape-5th) mußte an der Käsetheke stehend zwar keine Niederlage einstecken, konnte aber nur 4 Spiele mitspielen. Ganz besonders freue mich über die guten Platzierungen von evgchess (@evgsk) und ralk98 (@ralk98). In den Kommentaren werden wir über das Format der letzten Runde in dieser Saison abstimmen, dazu werde ich Vorschläge unterbreiten. Hier ist das Resultat:

For next week's edition I prefer bullet 2+1 since bullet hasn't been played before.
Yesterday chess 960 was fun, link of my post https://steemit.com/chess/@samostically/weekly-steem-blitz-chess960-edition-creekside-chess-league
Holly molly! thanks for the mention, it was very difficult that day, my head hurt because I was very concentrated lol, but it was definitely worth it,I got sixth in a variety of chess I don't play often and that's an achievement.
This tournament keeps me very motivated, now I'm playing more games and started playing some puzzle to improve my chess and I see small but good results.
Regarding the format for the next tournament, I would like Normal chess 2+1. I think the faster the more challenging!
Congrats @voiceoff on getting the first place, you are a good player! and also the other players who have improved their level.
And as always, great tournament. I will try to set some time aside this week to practice and play decent games next week :)
Thank you!
Option e is my favourite, I want to try!
Please comment with your favorite format for the last round:
a Normal Chess: 5 minutes +0 seconds
b Normal Chess: 5 minutes +2 seconds
c Normal Chess: 3 minutes +2 seconds
d Chess960: 5 minutes +2 seconds
e Chess960: 3 minutes +2 seconds
f Normal Chess Bullet: 2 minutes +1 seconds
The format with the most comments will be played.
c is my favorite.
So far we got 11 votes, e is the winner with 4 votes: Chess960 3+2!
f! Something new.
Option e sounds like fun.
Many thanks dear @schamangerbert for the tournament and the mention!
I'm also very pleasantly surprised by this result. Especially considering that I missed so many tournaments. It's so nice to try my hand again.
I think "b Normal Chess: 5 minutes +2 seconds" will be a good option for the last round.
My best wishes to all the participants!
So happy!... So lucky too, today :D
I prefer 3+2 Normal.
See you next time!
Congratulations,i love d game we played, you won with a nice tactics threatening mate.
Thank you!
Option e: Chess960 3 +2 will be great!
here my video tournament! :)
Hello friend, I am delighted with your blog. You have everything a little, I like chess and I am interested in participating. I'm sure I'll find enough competition. I think it will be given to Normal Chess: 5 minutes +0 seconds. I hope I'm not wrong, greetings and blessings to me, my dear friend @schamangerbert.
