Round 5 game result: docmri (W) vs PaulRichardTX (B), 0-1. Nimzo-Indian Defense, Rubinstein Variation, Black's queenside fianchetto line with 4...b6. Unfortunately, the link to the game is not available. Although the game was played to completion (approximately 60 moves), Chess.com did not save the game. It is probably due to a Ccom server hiccup and/or restart, but I submitted a "Bug Report" to the support group anyway.

Round 5- bshoot v/s Smokey-Grace result is 0-1

Final Cross Table: 

For tournaments that start in 2026, we are implementing a "Grand Prix" (GP) points system, similar to the system that we used in 2024. Quad 91 is the fourth of these tournaments to be completed. Here are the Grand Prix point awards for Quad 91:

Player: Participation Point + Actual Score = GP Points

bshoot: 1 + 1 = 2 (Replacement player in Rounds 4-6)
PaulRichardTX: 1 + 4.5 = 5.5
docmri: 1 + 2.5 = 3.5
Smokey-Grace: 1 + 3 = 4
KnightsIndianDefense: 0 + 1 = 1 (Withdrawn player)

Thanks again to bshoot for stepping in as the replacement player in Rounds 4-6!
