Hivechess Tournament Season 22 Round 3: Two German winners, @jaki01 and @schamangerbert!

Dear chess fans,

yesterday round 3 of S22 was played (you can read here all about the rules).
In total only 17 players had played! Welcome back, Hive account@jaki01!

The Challengers tournament was full of drama and action. Prior to the last round the top 7 players (out of 13) were only separated by 1 point and all had a chance to win! At the end Hive account@schamangerbert had the upper hand and gained the top spot with a remarkable performance of 1933! He was tied with two other players at 7 out of 9 - Hive account@odic3o1 and Hive account@stranger27. Places 4 and 5 went to players just 1 point behind, Hive account@rafaelaquino and Hive account@ezemhugo. Congratulations to All!

The Masters was a complete disaster with only 4 players (Hive account@samostically had joined only in round 4, apparently too late) and - since it was a Swiss tournament - it had ended after 3 rounds (the rules say that each player shall only play once against a certain opponent). Hive account@jaki01 was the winner as only player undefeated, runner-up was Hive account@mikmai, and behind him ex aequo in points myself and Hive account@fcastro177!

^{Of note, some players had been given up to 3 bonus points for participating in the fun tournaments (first, second) and the Hivepredict bet on the Candidates tournament!}

The participation needs to improve. I just don´t know how, any suggestions are welcome!
