Very nice. I think at least 2 made GM norms.
Congratulations to the winners and norm-makers!
Has anyone noted that the Tromsø Coat of Arms includes a chess-style castle on a chessboard pattern? Definitely a place to hold the 2014 Olympiad!
(If you’re wondering about the beast in the main part of the coat-of-arms, it moves three squares up and one square over.)
Monika outscored her much-higher-rated husband. The wife rules!
