There were some other games too which caught the attention of the judges:

Honourary Mentions

@goodmusic (2156?) 0 - 1 @sergey559 (1894)

This game involved an epic king walk with white dragging the black king right down the board, looking like it should be a certain mate. However, as we all know, the plot can change very quickly in Crazyhouse, as this game demonstrated with the sudden "surprise" mate at the end, it was a salutary tale to make sure to find mate when you can, or your opponent may find it instead!

@the-lone-wolf (2488) 1 - 0 @Keanu_Reeves1 (2611) a win on time but still in a winning position against a higher-rated opponent

@spidersneedlovetoo (1945) 1 - 0 @DubhKnight (2057) An interesting game with a nice mate at the end
