Thanks from IM Brodie McClymont to the organizers of WIM Arianne Caoili Memorial

Thank you for a well run tournament.

I couldn’t have possibly have won without access to the coffee at the canteen so thank you for all the volunteers keeping me caffeinated.

My most difficult game was against Yi which I was fortunate to win, we both fell below 10 seconds. I don’t think I fell below 6 minutes in any other games.

I probably learnt the most from my game with Ekaterina because it was a theoretical line in the Sicilian Dragon.

I didn’t know Arianne very well but I am sure she would have loved everyone coming together for a big tournament. Hopefully, we will see even more players next year.

Might see you all at the Wendy Terry in 2 weeks.
