QB2025Q2 Results

Our second quarterly blitz of 2025 happened on June 19th, and it was a scorcher of a summer evening with an even hotter tournament! We mixed things up this time, ditching our usual 5 rounds with 2 games per round, for 9 rounds with just 1 game per round. The time control was 5 minutes, no increment. Surprisingly, everything went super smoothly, and we even wrapped up earlier than expected. It went so well that we're thinking of bumping it up to 10 rounds next time. This new setup let players face more opponents and kept the BYE players from sitting out too long. We'd love to hear what you think about the new format in the comments.

Now, onto the results. NM Ryan snagged first place with 8.5 out of 9, drawing only in round 4 against Joe. Mike took second, and Joe came in third, both with 6.5 points. Adrian was the star performer, winning a JP mug and a lesson. Medals were handed out to the top three finishers.
