Dear authors of the awarded problems JF-2013/I !
I hope all of you have got your diplomas by postal mail! I’ve added some pictures of them to the Gallery of Prizes, and also have made Gallery page visible under the Tourneys menu.
With all changes I make from time to time some links can be broken. Please let me know if something doesn’t work! Thank you! –Julia

I will inform you later about the list of problems participating in this tourney (some improved problems, PG-problems will be excluded). The number of problems is around 50 (from No.311 till No.365).
THANKS A LOT to all participants and active commentators!
GRATITUDE to our judge, DIYAN KOSTADINOV, for taking this big work! I’d like to mention, that Diyan runs also two thematic tourneys himself now, Zabunov-85MT 2013 and The 4th Bulgarian Wine Tourney 2013(PDF), and regular informal tourneys on the website KoBulChess, so taking one more judging is really impressive! Diyan, we’ll be patient and can wait for the Award as long as needed! Have a pleasant judging!
And now all of you are very welcome to participate in Julia’sFairies-2013-III: from 01-September-2013 till 31-December-2013.
