In 2014 Schachus, Crust and Nath played against each other in such a tournament with Nath winning the tournament. I propose something similar but little bit bigger as a tournament. It is obvious that in Copenhagen variant there are top 5 players who are equally strong (except Casshern who is little bit ahead). These players are Casshern, Draganov, Alex Hnefatafl, OdinHimself and Cacreal. I think it will be great if we manage to organize a tournament where these 5 players are playing in round-robin format playing 4 games against each other (16 games per player for the whole tournament). The games could be distributed in 2 rounds. In each round a player is playing 2 games (black and white) against each of the other players (8 games per round in total for each player). I think playing 8 games it will not be too much for each of the players. 11-05/09:22 Hagbard: Most active Hnefatafl countries on this site Oct. 2024: 1. USA 2. Bulgaria 3. UK 4. Germany 5. Russia 6. Canada 7. Moldavia 8. France |
