1999 WORLD TANTRIX CHAMPIONSHIP - REPORTS

This page will carry reports about the World Tantrix Championship along with articles and reports by players.

Any contributions would be really welcome - please send them to tournaments@tantrix.co.uk. They could include anything from one-line quotes (by you or anyone else!) or short comments on the lines of "I think I lost my match on move 30 of game 3 because ..." up to short articles on what you think of the draw, what it's like to play in the WTC (did you get nervous before your first match?) or a fully commented game.

Quotes:

Apologies to those quoted - I may not have remembered them quite right!

"I've been a bad girl with leslie" - Simone Puterman
(unfortunately for leslie, it didn't mean what it looks like it means!)

"J'ai une chance de con en ce moment!" - Laurent Berguin
(after being drawn to potentially meet papillon in round 2)
(no doubt papillon's reaction was fairly similar!)


"You're the only unsexed player left in the main draw" - Steven Trezise
(to Mighty, when the email spell-checker decided to reject "unseeded" and the change was accepted by mistake!)

"Can we swap matches with someone else?" - Cindy Tarsi
(only a 1 in 24 chance of being drawn to play husband Jim in round 1, but it happened!)
