State of the 4545 League

Sometimes you wait for things, sometimes you end up waiting too long, long enough for it to be rendered meaningless. I hope that that hasn't happened in regards with this ledger and I apologize for my tardiness. 
Three good weeks of chess have gone past us. We have three teams, with 6/6 points in 4545, just separated on game points.
LoneWolf Season 13 has begun and we're in the first round.
A host of Blitz Battles have been held in the last few weeks (thanks to the new Blitz Battle mod, @kostasvl); the details and results of them can be found here and then by going to any of the previous seasons (#44 - #49).

Season 4 of Chess 960 has ended, the results are:
1st place: @Scrooge, with 7.5/8 points!
2nd place: @Assassin_in_White, with 6/8 points
3rd place: @eie24, with 5.5/8 points
Best U1600: @moha369
Congratulations to all the winners!

@okei has written a blog on the 2nd season of the 10+10 crazyhouse league, please take a look here.

"The December 45+45 Simul will be held on the 29th of December at 18:00 UTC and will be hosted by @moistvonlipwig. This is the first simul he's ever given so we are going to make it slightly easier on him bu accepting a maximum of 20 opponents limited to the rating of no more than 2000. First come first serve. Registartion will open 30 minutes ahead at 17:30 UTC.
There is a chance that @moistvonlipwig might have to cancel and if anyone wants to volunteer to be an alternate, that would be great. If you wish to volunteer ot have any questions, please visit the #4545-simul channel." -@Colwem

Editorial announcement:
@Kraaft and I (@SpiteKnight) might have some difficulties in getting the ledger issues ready until the first two weeks of 2019, and we may not publish regularly or on schedule. We apologize for the same. If anyone is willing to volunteer/help in relation with the same, please feel free to DM either of us. Thanks you for your patience.
