◈The surviving games
All 8 official boards are preserved as standard replayable Mega2024 games.
Every included record has a unique Mega2024 SourceGameId, a unique replayable mainline and no PGN parse error. Adjacent event labels and unqueued identities are excluded.
◈An honest team view
Because the playable coverage or identity evidence is incomplete, the archive uses an explicit official two-team standing and deliberately omits a computed roster grid.
The official board score remains visible even where the public archive covers only part of the historical ledger, so missing games cannot silently distort the displayed result.
◈Final Standings
The archive contains 8 of 8 official played boards. The authoritative two-team standing is supplied explicitly; no computed roster grid is proposed. The queue site is the transmission label Radio, while the official chronology calls this a cable match. Mega dates the records 11 December; OlimpBase dates the match 19 December, so the bio preserves the documented date discrepancy.
