  1. In case of a tie, is the title shared or is the sonnegorn-berger tie-breaker used to determine a champion?

  2. I'm unclear. I'd presumed up to the time of your comment that SB would be used to break any tie, as the tiebreaker appears on the crosstable. Upon a little reflection, however, that may simply be a function of the ICCF server. I looked briefly at the rules and at Alex's letter initiating the tournament and neither offers help. I note that Alex has referred a couple of times in The Check Is In The Mail to players being tied for first, but that's not conclusive either because the crosstables weren't shown and it's possible, I suppose, that the players were tied by SB, too. In any event, some level of bragging rights are at stake. I would have tiebreaks over O'Hare, but not over Sogin. Gary
