Dear diary, it has been 14 days since I arrived. In that time I have seen many strong and distinguished chess players fall by the wayside. For some it was a futile struggle against fate, while for others they held out for as long as possible before succumbing to the inevitable. There remains only a few of us (16 players and 4 arbiters), and I am not sure how long we can go on.
If I don't make it back at least I can say I saw the best of a generation, doing there utmost to succeed (or draw 7 out of the 8 games today)
