Problem with the Easter weekend is you cant test load on the web server and when you can there is no one to fix the problems.
Ah , i'm sorry to hear that .
But thank you for the explanation , and again congratulations on your continuing fine work in this most successful tournament .

..and well done Mike !

Hi,


Top effort Mike. Winning the minor is not easy, probably the best minor tournament in Australia. Very Important to learn how to win chess tournaments. You deserve a lot of respect for achieving a goal, much better then playing up for the "experience", like a lot of other players. Looks like the major next year!

cheers,

This is an extremely important post. Well done fg7 for raising the issue.

The post should be compulsory reading for every parent and nearly every coach.

Nicely put Dave.
