Glory of Red Green wins ONE WORLD League's 3rd Spring 24 Hours Arena
It was a close fight between Glory of Red Green and TEAM PHILIPPINES LIVE CHESS for nearly the entire duration of our 3rd Spring 24 Hours Arena. After 22 hours it ended abruptly as Chess.com crashed our Arena with an additional (and exceptional) live server restart. ONE WORLD League's demand to Chess.com's support to receive the latest standings before this crash received a favorable answer today.
These are our individual medallists ...

... and this the final results in this Arena:

In their third messages within only 28 hours (!) Chess.com's support not only sent a spreadsheet with latest individual standings before the live server restart, they also added the following paragraph: "Our engineering team would also like to extend an apology to everyone who participated in the tournament. The reason for the surprising server restart was that our server was on the verge of experiencing an issue that would likely affect gameplay for all players, which was deemed an emergency."
Like to mention, that this was the very first time, that ONE WORLD League has received concrete support from Chess.com. Thanks a lot to Cássio, who has really helped us with this.
