Hivechess tournament ranking with player's countries info added
Hi hiveans! Recently I'm playing chess online in Hivechess Tournament (season 19) organized by @stayoutoftherz and with this season final round scheduled to happen tomorrow. Seeing the last table of participants (round 11) I wonder if revealing the players' countries (using flag emojis), more than a supposed nationalism spirit, it could attract attention and a broader audience and even supporters, plus helping to understand cultural differences and local education, habits and trends.
If the organizers agreed they can free add this info for next table results but I anticipated the work by redoing the last table with the information I found in the players' profiles here on Hive and also on Lichess (please correct any mistakes and let me know if you want the nationality added, changed or excluded).

What do you think? As a brazilian I know that here chess is not popular but at least the game has an image that it's good for memory, learning, strategic thinking, etc. Before doing the table above I thought that the nationalities linked with the chess history and traditions like India, Italy and Russia could be more represented but the actual results could reflect the hiveans users demographics and crypto and blockchain adoption. The players from Venezuela and Nigeria are almost the majority of participants, maybe the tournment could have prizes or rewards by national teams, groups or somewhat like that.
See you tomorrow on the season 19 final round! Good game, keep safe, thanks and good luck again!

Great idea!
If I would know the country of all players I could do this next season! But I would prefer small flags instead of the letter code, not sure if that would screw up the table.
I'm glad you liked the suggestion! Showing or not the nationality could be optional but I hope some of the mentioned players whose flag I couldn't identify would comment here approving and sharing the info to add their countries in the table. See you tomorrow in the tournament last round! Good game, keep safe and good luck again!
Hi, it seems I'm the only Peruvian, see you in the next round.
Yes, I'm the only brazilian too, until now at least. See you soon in the next round.
1241 ta bom, eu me bato pra chegar no rating 1000
Valeu!!! Pra treinar, além de videos no YouTube, de vez em qdo uso os cursos grátis do Chessable e os quizes do Chesio no Telegram (que recompensa com uma suposta cripto na TON Blockchain). Quem sabe na próxima temporada não participem mais brasileiros.
