N:

This is more of a mini-tourney, as the closing date is within one month after the announcement.

The prize-winning problem of section B was already awarded a prize in the previous tourney. It is not clear why it is given a second prize. No corrections have been found, though.

The special prize in section B was awarded for its many dual-free mates.
