Year 2013!
January, 1st, 2013
Greetings to everybody in the year 2013!
I’d like to tell a few words about the previous year:
Julia’s Fairies website was created on the 10th of April, 2012. So, it is still very young, but it is growing so rapidly, that sometimes I can’t follow it! Starting from few visitors per day in April it turned into 150-170 visits per day in December, 2012. The two thematic tourneys seem to be quite successful and I’m very happy about them! Number of published original problems in 2012 is 213!
But now I’m opening a “new season“. And I’d like to welcome you to send your original problems as before! This year I’ve decided to split the year into 3 periods: I – January-April, II – May-August, III – September-December. The judges are not appointed yet, but hopefully will be soon!
Of course, I’ll have few thematic tourneys during the year as well!
I’ve started to restructure the Original Problems section, adding new periods and new sub-menus. Hopefully, everything will work! But please let me know if something goes wrong!
And now – please see just published problem, which opens the year 2013 – No.214 – Petko A. Petkov!
The Award of Christmas Blitz-Tourney JF-2012!
I’m very-very happy to present you a preliminary Award of The Christmas Blitz-Tourney JF-2012! It was prepared in a very short term, and I’m sorry if there’re any mistakes! A term of 10 days is given for possible remarks or objections, and after this term the results will be announced as final results.
Congratulations to the Prize Winners!! Thanks a lot to all of you, my dear participants!
And a Happy New Year to everybody!!! – Julia

- (30.12) For this problem Peter Harris even gives some hints to the solvers! Does it mean that No.211 is even more complicated then all Peter’s problems I’ve published before?!!
- (29.12) An excellent Take & Make play is presented in a problem No.210 by Pierre Tritten!
- (29.12) See a long play of Chameleon pawns in a problem No.209 by János Mikitovics !
You can click on the Original Problems tab on the top to see the whole list of published problems. Problem numbers are links to the problems – click on any number to see the problem. Standard search using Ctrl+F also works for the list.
I’d like to ask you – if you see anything incorrect in this list, or some problems (or published versions of them) are not included – please let me know! Sometimes I add there new problems with some delay, but before the last record all the other should exist. Thank you!!
Participants – Christmas Blitz 2012
Dear Friends,
I’m happy to show you a list of participants of my Christmas Blitz 2012! For those, who participates – please check again if everything is correct about you! I hope so!
There’s also my name in the list. I know, I shouldn’t participate as an organizer, but I’m just the 2nd author in a joint problem, where the main author who submitted it has used some motives from my already published problem (feenschash, #10539). So, this problem was allowed to participate by the judge.
The Award will be ready in few days!
Thanks again to all of you! And have a Happy New Year holidays!!
