November online competition

November's competition for our online games, hosted by Funbridge, has concluded.

In the main November matchpoints ladder, Olivier La Spada finished top of the leader board. His best six scores in the month averaged 66.77%, and he wins £30. Second place was claimed by Dean Swallow with an average score of 66.59%, he wins £20. There were also cash prizes for third to fifth places.

In the handicap ladder, for the players whose scores exceed their NGS by the greatest amount. Nigel Wilkins finished top of the leader board over the top six games, with a handicap score of 9.80, winning £10. There is also a prize for second place, won by Paul Nicholas.

There are some exciting changes coming to the EBU Funbridge games in the New Year. We will have a free game on Jan 1 and on Feb 29. There will not be an annual ladder competition next year, but there will instead be an increase in the prizes in the monthly ladders, especially the handicap one; the IMP ladder will become three-monthly. We hope that all these changes will increase the number of players who win prizes.
