    CDEB your scoring is wrong,,,,,,Lopez is lower rated than Collins so 5 pts for those of us that predicted an Alex win!!

    I've given you one point for round 3, and you've given yourself 3 points - but I think it's actually 5?

    A prediction of a win for Lopez, who was the lower-rated player? So you should be on 10 now.

    I'm conducting a stewards enquiry after allegations that En Passant has been using a crystal ball to make his predictions. If the charges are proven he will of course be disqualified.

    I strongly reject the accusation that I have been using a crystal ball. My predictions are entirely based on reading tea leaves.

    ChessPlayer123 (9)predicts win for Manojlovic, draws for Nemeth and Fox.

    Also in the game on board 3 between O'Donnell and Murphy they're both rated 2336. What points will people get as a result of a prediction from this game?

    3 for a draw and 5 for a win BUT if you pick a player of equal rating to win and he loses then you are deducted 5 points. Who will be brave enough to gamble??

    20 - ChessPlayer123
    13 - Sodacat

    You seem to be labouring under a slight misunderstanding. I supply the trophy and the grateful winner buys ME a pint.

    Ah.

    Do you drink water?

    I could perhaps stretch to a blackcurrant.

    Round 6 is here. Going to go for a win for Melaugh G, a win for Short, and a draw on the top board.
