Stephan, right now your prediction is right on the money, but I feel like I can do considerably better, the end games of large boards on nono are brutal.

This is my third full season in these tournaments, and for the first time i feel like I let one get away, my board was a 5 column and another 4 column, doesn't get any better than that but a hesitation costed me time

1.73 on a board with a 4 in the 1st and a 5 in the 4th column... Cheesy

nice story behind this score: got this after not even 3 min of playing. when i started playing i told myself i would keep playing the whole next 30min just to get at least one 4+5 board.

c'mon guys, you know i'm usually barely 5th or 6th on such boards. hurry up and get some sub1.73 scores Wink

Somehow I'm disappointed, that I'm not gonna win this T. I thought that I'd need a sub 1 as the WR is 1.20 on it, but I couldn't do better than this 1.52  Cry
I can't play for the rest of the T as I'm playing at the austrian mixed curling championships this weekend. We just lost our opening game against the tournament favorites. So we are looking to do better tomorrow to make it to the playoffs Smiley

@Christoph: Somehow, I'm quite happy that my 1.46 was enough to win this T. Thanks, as I didn't get a single 5-4 oder 5/5 combination this week, I couldn't do better than this 1.46 on a 2-2-5 combination.

By the way, this T was probably the first one where German players got all medal ranks. We should talk with the IOC about making this board an Olympic discipline Grin

I'm not gonna play this S34T5, it's way too ugly for my understanding. But still it brought a thought to my mind I think I should ask the community about:
If one uses a double head monitor system in a way that one has the same picture on both screens then one could arrange the screens and the long rectange in a way, that the numbers on the right hand side (so also right hand side on the left screen) would be just left of the board on the right screen. Thus one could find the correct numbers for the lines with way less eye-movement.
I didn't try it, but still I think that could give a clear advantage. So: Should that be considered cheating?
