Lichess Liga Team Battle: Again an excellent second rank - Next try this Thursday!

Dear chessfans!

Last Sunday our blockchain chess team fought yet again in liga 3 of the "Lichess Liga Team Battle reloaded" and we again almost made it!! Until 10 min before the close we were in the lead, and just within a few minutes almost miraculously one team gained some 30 points and overtook us - very strange.

160 players of a record average rating of 2096(!) had fought for points.
Topscorer from our team was for the first time @chessdev17 (queen5layer), followed by IM @stuffings and @poseout87 (ManFromSpain)! Congratulations!
Many thanks also to @samostically, @jaki01, @tobijob, @tangibleay, @dalods, @mendelito (TheMadman4rmDaSouth), @dakods, @justola1, @justfavour, @madchess64, @kintokris (Jonbellionfan), @schamangerbert (welcome back!), @darruiz, @rodrook and @dadapizza (knighthammer7)(Welcome to Hivechess!) for participating and fighting hard for our team!

Here are the final standings:

In the meantime the topscorers @poseout87, IM @stuffings, @fcastro177, @tangibleay, IM @tenny-trigah and @chessdev17 have gotten the prestigous "Hivechess Valued Player"-badge which shows up one their peakd.com profile page (currently 45 Hivians have it).

If you want to earn this honorary badge, you normally have to participate in 10 Hivechess tournaments (regardless who organized them, myself, @sam.chess or @sammy00). If you have done so, and have no badge yet, please let me know - I will assign it shortly! Of note, people not playing on Hive for a longer period, will lose the badge.
