Did anyone notice that the crowdfunding for the prize pot is offering heaps of subscriptions and other stuff in exchange for small donations?

I've always found having a token woman just for the sake of having a token woman more insulting and patronising than inspiring but maybe that's just me. I'd prefer it if the organizers put more effort into convincing some of the 6d+ female players to participate but then again, I'm also generally not a fan of such preferential treatment. Either way, the online nature of this tournament may have swayed some players' decision just as some would not have been able to participate if the championship were an in-person tournament. |

So if we ignore 1) real world versus online and 2) Europe plus EGF member countries versus only EGF member countries, Ilya Shikshin ties with the record holder Jürgen Mattern of having won 8 titles. |
