(25.10.2013) Soon after the end of the congress in Batumi I received from Geoff Foster an improved version of his Wine Tourney 1st-2nd Prize winner problem where he was found a way to make all 16 moves as thematic captures  (which is very difficult with this dynamic combination of fairy conditions).
