Note

Jahangir Khan suffered defeat in the World Open for the first time since 1980. The world number one had previously won five consecutive world titles.

gollark: Vertically extending the design has allowed for crazy, crazy expense, 28kRF/t running on LEN-236 Oxide, and 933.3% efficiency.
gollark: Well, yes, it's symmetrical in 2D, not 3D.
gollark: No, see, the copper is on the top half of the middle but not the bottom.
gollark: Exactly heat-balanced thing which is unfortunately slightly asymmetrical.
gollark: I *think* this packing results in no empty space other than round the edges.
