The 7th British Open was being held at City University in central London over the weekend of 5-6 April 2008.
This year's event consisted of a single all-play-all tournament played over both days and it was won by Knaresborough's Rob Morton ITM TTM, who became the first player ever to have won three table tournament Open titles! Mauro Lazzara of Angola was the first African representative ever to win a table Tantrix medal, finishing 2nd, while Ben Polman ITM from the Netherlands finished 3rd.
The Rising Stars competition was won by Petra Wark from the Netherlands, with Barbara Kocsis from Hungary 2nd and Igor Wilk from Poland 3rd.

Boring but important ...
1) We have to reserve the right to default and/or ban at our discretion people whom we have very good reason to think are either cheating or not making an effort to arrange a match, even if (given the nature of the Internet) we cannot prove it. We will not, however, abuse this right - in previous tournaments it has only been very rarely necessary to make use of it and we very much hope that will continue to be the case.
2) We have had two instances in the last four years of people using different names to enter the World Championship more than once in the same year. This is grossly unfair to the other players so, in order to protect the integrity of the major Tantrix tournaments and to be fair to the vast majority of players who are honest, we reserve the right to request evidence of identity from participants during the tournament if this is felt to be necessary at any stage and to disqualify anyone who cannot prove that they are who they say they are if requested to do so. This is unlikely to affect you, but you need to be aware of this possibility before entering.
3) If you enter, please ensure that emails from tournaments@tantrix.co.uk and auto@tantrix.co.uk (and, once the tournament starts, emails from your AC and opponents) will not be blocked under any circumstances. This is because if we are unable to contact you by email for an extended period, we may have to default you out of the competition and this may lead to a ban from future tournaments.
4) If you enter this tournament, please ensure that you have anti-virus software that is updated regularly on the computer you use to email your opponents.
