FunMasterMike My Fault Cup Best Game Winners!

The FunMasterMike My Fault Cup took place earlier in January with about 600 kids competing over six grades. We've already published a list of the winners and the mini-camps with me have already taken place.

But, "Wait, wait, Mr. FunMaster, we're not done," you say!

And I say, "I'm not Mr. FunMaster. That's my dad!"

But seriously, you are correct that we're not done with prizes yet! As announced on the live show, all kids were eligible to submit a game for a "Best Game Prize" in each section. And the prizes would be one of six of FunMasterMike's real-life chess trophies that he won as a kid. There's no prize quite like it.

A little piece of FunMasterMike's childhood chess success will be mailed to each of the winners' homes. And since it was me doing the judging, I made my selections based on things that I value in chess: tactics, fighting spirit, good comebacks, trading into winning endgames, and more. I wasn't looking for perfection -- we're not Magnus. Wait, is your name Magnus? Mine isn't!

Here's the winners (note that there were no entries in the Kindergarten section so I awarded two prizes in the 2nd grade section):

1st Grade Winner: RareVastTrolley

2nd Grade Winner: YonatanA17349720

2nd Grade Winner: LionsMarkR

3rd Grade Winner: LucaTM122719

Congratulations to all and to the winners please look for an email soon about how I can get you your trophy!
