For anyone who wants to participate in the contest, we invite you to write down your games and submit your records. We will analyze your matches with the help of some artificial intelligence software and reward players who have come closer to their moves.

Each record must clearly highlight the name of the player participating in the contest, the names of both players who played the game, date, tournament name, signature of both players (this is to confirm that the game was actually played, so please ask your opponent to confirm game records you want to submit).
Please write your record in a readable way :)
