How old is the youngest player on the Canadian man squad? That number will coincide with team's place at the end of the competition.

Okay, i'll take 59th

Re: How well will Canada do in Istanbul? Win a prize!

All the good ones are taken. I predict 58th.

It isn't first come, first served; duplicate correct predictions split the prize...

Post on this thread your prediction on how Canada will do in the Open section of the 2012 Chess Olympiad in Turkey which gets underway shortly.

The winner gets a $100 gift certificate from Strategy Games.

No cost to participate.

Your prediction must appear here no later than at the end of the day on Wednesday August 29th 2012. You must be dead on to win...this is not horseshoes :)

If there is more than one person with the right prediction, the prize is divided equally amongst the winners.

Only 1 prediction per person.

We are hoping to have daily coverage from the Canadian perspective.

Stayed tuned...

A lot of people missed the part about "the Open section" - how about a parallel prize for guessing the placement of the Women's Team?
