Thanks to everyone who played with TheRejoicingTeam in T50, and a warm welcome to all our new players! We had three teams for the first time: TheRejoicingRooks, TheRejoicingTemplars, and TheRejoicingChessDisciples. TheRejoicingRooks finished 3rd in the Steinitz section. TheRejoicingTemplars made it to the playoffs and finished in 2nd place in the Lasker section with 5 match points and 19 game points. (First place went to the ArchBishops-MitsuBishies with 5.5 match points and 18 game points). TheRejoicingChessDisciples did have a tough season finishing in 6th place. Overall, however, I would say this was our best season since T44 when TheRejoicingTeam_B finished first in the U1400 section.
Top board honors go to Chessjav with 4.5 out of 5 games or 90%. The runner-up is Timisrejoicing with 6 out of 7 games or 86%.
CactusJr came in third with 4 out of 6 games or 67%.
We had quite a few interesting, well-thought-out games--and, I confess, a few very fast games. Many thanks to Mekk for his excellent work with watchbot.
