Another vote needed to break a tie

Post by Bill Salot »

Ahoy!

The polls close tomorrow at midnight USA Eastern Daylight time. There is currently a tie for first place in Unofficial World Championship Checker Problem Composing Contest #18.

The next vote could break the tie and crown a new world champion. Will you cast that vote at the link below?

Contest #17 results are currently showing instead of Contest #18.
Did someone cast the tiebreaking vote for Contest #18?
Both contests come down to a Close Call with a Photo Finish!

George,

Contest #18 was off-line while I was adding details to the results. I wasn't successful animating the Practically Practical continuation. Maybe Jason can help me out.

There was a late vote, but it didn't break the tie.

The stories are there now for all to see.

Hi Bill, by now it is old news that Contest #18 is back on line. I really like the wrap up at the end
of the contests. Practically Practical was very deep to play it through to the bitter end for the win.
Practically Practical was practically covered from A to Z with the program Most Famous Checkers
showing the win. The commentary and inside story were superb!
