OpenWar 5th Edition

Pairings - Games - Final crosstable after round 65

List of participants

Announcement (January, 31st) : Cipollino was forfeited in the first place after Christopher Conkie showed some similarities with Fruit in the output. But Giancarlo Delli Colli, author of Cipollino, provided Chris with some source code for examination, and nothing suspicious has been found so far. I have therefore decided to reinstate Cipollino in OpenWar.
