    Well, it's really early in the game, so.. it could go any way, really
    The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.

    Well played Pann. Not preparing for the attack on f7 was my fatal mistake.

    People. For next competitions (not this one because it has already started) we can use the tournament section of chess.com:

    http://www.chess.com/tournaments/

    We could create one there and we can keep track of everything there.
