SuperProblem announces a quick composing theme tourney entitled "To be Continue?"
Theme: h#2 with continued twinning (each phase continues the previous phase in some way).
In one of the phases there are more than one solutions, only one of them allows a solution for the next phases and is considered the correct one.
In the example below black can promote to both Queen and Rook in a), but promoting to a Rook will lead to no solution in b). So only promoting to a Queen is considered the correct solution.
Judge: Evgeni Bourd.
Closing date: December 23, 2013.
Entries should be sent to director of the tourney Aleksey Oganesjan via e-mail: alex_rox@mail.ru
All received problems will be presented to the judge in anonimous form.
Award will be published on the website http://superproblem.ru/index-en.html
