Lichess Liga Team Battle: We did OK - Next round tomorrow!
Dear chessfans!
Last Sunday our blockchain chess team fought again in liga 3 of the "Lichess Liga Team Battle reloaded"! We did quite well, but didn´t rock too much, and ended up with a solid 5th rank, thanks to the "usual suspects" of scorers in our team!
It was a tournament of 161 players from 10 teams, of an average rating of 2052.
Topscorer from our team was (for the third time) @poseout87 (ManFromSpain), followed by IM @tenny-trigah and @jaki01, congratulations!
Many thanks also to @tangibleay, @samostically, @mendelito (TheMadman4rmDaSouth), @fcastro177, @tobijob (Welcome to Hivechess!!), @justola1, @rafaelaquino (ajedrezclub2t), @sammy00 (migmag), @rodrook, @dhilan04 and @darruiz (and a few more with very few games only) for joining the forces and fighting! The participation of our team was with 14 players on the lower side. In order to raise to liga 2 we really need to boost up our engagement. If more from us would play longer, I think it is possible to raise!
Here are the final standings:

The 10 topscorers earned one Hive that was sent to their wallets already (in total 112 Hive were paid out so far)! And all who have none yet will be given bonus points for S21 (if played at least 5 games)!
All our results so far:
The next event starts tomorrow, Thursday, 17th July, at 18h GMT in liga 3C again!
Mode: 3+2 (3 minutes per game, 2 sec. increment per move), 100 min. arena

- The results of the 10 best contributors of each team (i.e. the "scorers") are counted in this liga
- Bonus: Every participant in the Team Liga (min. 5 games played) will get a one-time bonus of 3 points in the upcoming Hivechess season 21, all scorers 5 and topscorers will get even 10 points!

On another note, just before the big classic Freestyle Chess Event in Las Vegas starts, there is a new official chess960 ELO rating table out! No. is of course Magnus with a huge lead over Nakamura.
