In the last article we said that the checkers Oscar is a young and unique reward, and for a short history three times changed his appearance. After talking with people standing at the origins of this award, we learned, what is this uncertainty.
The first Oscar 2008 was presented in the form of the Greek goddess Nike, which translated means victory. The goddess is a symbol of a successful outcome, and for this reason that the authors have chosen to associate the image of a checkerboard Oscar. Obligatory attribute of the image Nicknames are the wings and wreath, which are also present at the Oscar statuettes.
In 2009, Oscar styled in the image of the lion, which is without doubt the symbol of strength, leadership and generosity and is well suited for awards.
In 2010, checkers Oscar took on the form of the Greek God Hermes. Gold Hermes became the symbol of the pursuit of knowledge, discoveries, and achievements, search for secret and hidden devices and checkers games. This type of award is this year. According to the authors, the appearance of Oscar to change there will be no more and this is his final appearance.
A good tradition of this award continues and finds support from fans of checkers sport. We hope that this sport checkers award will go down in history checkers for a long time.
