Hi Players,

Thanks to all for getting their orders in on time.  I've spent the odd minute here or there trying to come up with a theme for this game, but inspiration has been lacking so I guess I'll just play it straight.  Feel free to be disappointed or relieved, as you prefer.

Please review the results carefully and contact me immediately if you think there may have been an error.  Odds are good that at some point I'm going to make a mistake.  It's up to you to spot it and let me know ASAP.  The tournament rules give you 24 hours to identify a mistake.  In fact, it is much better to catch it immediately, given how quickly the turns will be coming.

Thanks to all, and good luck!

Chris
