Dear chessfans!
Yesterday our blockchain chess team fought for the last time this year in the "Lichess Liga Team Battle reloaded" and we gained the 7th rank in a close fight (the teams 4 to 7 were only apart by 2 points!). In this last battle we were again only 10 players, so it seems it is really a good time to have a summer break.
116 players from 10 teams, of an average rating of 2057 had participated. Topscorer from our team was again 
Hive account@mendelito (TheMadman4rmDaSouth), followed by 
Hive account@eniolw and 
Hive account@tangibleay. Congratulations!
Many thanks also to 
Hive account@southgamer, 
Hive account@samostically, 
Hive account@jaki01, 
Hive account@justfavour, 
Hive account@dakods and 
Hive account@rodrook for fighting in our team!
Here are the final standings:

As always, the 8 scorers earned one Hive. In addition there are....
Special prices!
10 Hive go to 
Hive account@poseout for being four times the topscorer of our team.
10 Hive as well go to Hive account@samostically who scored 17 times (out of 20) for our team!
Congratulations!

Hive account@chessdev17, Hive account@mendelito, Hive account@poseout, Hive account@tangibleay, 
Hive account@toluwayme and 
Hive account@dalods will have a 10 point bonus in S21!
Our team size was on average 15,5 players (ranging from 9 to 19), the most common results were 2nd, 5th and 7th place (3 times each) - not too bad!
4 times we raised up one liga, but 4 times we also were demoted down, so all in all we had ended up in the same liga where we have started. Of note, in 2023 we had started in liga 12 and ended (after 17 rounds) in liga 7 (check it out here), but of course it was much easier in those lower ligas back then 😀.
All the results:
