State of the 4545 League

by @SpiteKnight

The leaders, 'Ha, We Got Lovlas' face the challengers in second place 'Hey guys, it's John' this week. With just 3 weeks left in this season and four teams yet to lose a point, there's still plenty of room for the standings to surprise all of us.
LoneWolf Open section is led by @Leverkuhn and @Heinie, and the U1800 section is led by @Immortality. All three leaders have 5.5/6 points, putting in a very strong performance so far.

Chess 960 Season 4 has begun. You can still register here and participate from the next round.

Also, a very exciting announcement was made by the mods:
"The 45|45 league is coming up on its 3 year anniversary and we will be holding a 6 hour 15+15 tournament on Lichess to commemorate. It's not until the 17th Nov but we thought you might like some time to plan, https://lichess.org/tournament/qYW5iyqt. Hope to see you there!"
