The mod later edited their comment:
EDIT: as funny as it is to imagine that I literally removed the post because it spoiled a tournament result, I actually didn't; another mod removed it (for being low-effort). In light of this post's popularity I'll re-approve it.
At some point OP deleted the post anyway. Dunno if it was in response to their treatment by mods, or unrelated to that.
Low effort? I thought winning a tournament was big effort!
Yeah but it takes a little bit more effort than winning a tournament if you want to post on reddit.
Google 1984
1984 was a leap year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar
Holy shit.
This needs to be stopped.
Holy hell

Mon passant...
I hate this. So what if a post is low effort? If users upvote, it's fine. Dumb rule, dumb mod.
Technically correct: not always the best kind of correct.
I don't like doing a full post on these types of platforms because of these moments when it feels like there's 117.732.852.388,27 rules and they are strictly applying every single one of them at the same time. /exg
Yeah, too many rules stifle engagement.
r/showerthoughts come to mind. I guess my thoughts were never showery enough to get approved ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Don't worry, at least you (probably) shower more than them.
YouTube and Street Fighter tournaments. The instant one is over, BOOM, "How XXXX won XXXX tournment!!" videos are everywhere. Or, the top comment on a video is "Great Job XXXX!" It sucks when you never have a chance to watch these things live.
whoa, how’d you get those upvote/downvote buttons?
Those are just their custom vote buttons on the chess subreddit
