Last name misspellings

Over the years, for whatever reason, tournament officials seem to always misspell Max's surname badly, as evidenced by the wildly varying names he has been accidentally registered under.

  • Max Rozmjaw
  • Max Razmico
  • Max Razinjco

  • Max Rasmijew
  • Max Rosenjoo
  • Max Mazmjoo
