Realms Beyond Chess Tournament #5

This thread serves as a place to talk and chat about RB chess tournament #5. You can openly talk and analyze finished games, games that have not yet started or the tournament situation. There is one important rule:

If you are commenting on a game that is still in progress use spoiler tags and name the players! Players of that game are not allowed to read the spoiler until their game is finished.

An example would be:

Novice-Zakalwe
I think if Novice plays 35. Rxf6, he should be able to claim a draw by perpetual check. If not, he is lost.
Rowain-MJW
I don't think Rowain's choice of the Orang-Utan opening was a good call.

For user-friendliness, you can also include a link to the game along with your comments. You may comment on your own ongoing games, but again spoilers are mandatory and you can't read answers until the game is over. It is understood that your opponent is not allowed to read these spoilers during the game either.

Gustaran-Pindicator
Damn, I lost a piece again, hopefully Pindicator will blunder and allow me to escape with a draw.

List of players:
JamesBCrazy (JamesBCrazy)
Regoarrarr (regoarrarr)
Rowain (Rowain_RB)

Uberfish (uberfish1)

Jkaen (Jkaen)

Just start with a 4 man group and a 5 man group?

Either that, or play a single 9-player round. The last tournament had 10 players, so it shouldn't be worse than that one. I'd be fine with a 3-day timer in that case, though.

I'll join if it is single round

I am going to have to withdraw from this, unfortunately.

No, I'd say more of a thud.
