The Third and final game of the Grudge match between the Resurrection-Fruit05 vs .Hiarcs3 will take place this Sunday at 5AM(US EST)
with the score deadlocked at 1-1 anything can happen
the game can be viewed live on the Playchess Server in the ENGINE room
follow HICARCSX
given the recent disharmony amongst the good members here this week ..added to the fact that is will be Easter Sunday.. i imagine the turnout will be anemic at best and security will be tight
this means however that front row seats are still available
the Winner of the match will be declared the best and strongest chess computer (or PC Engine) ever released for sale
with the winner doing the declaring
in the event of a draw ...Co-TITLES will be awarded with member Jon from Australia providing TWO trophies
Sunday Bloody Sunday Regards
Steve

Now that I have finished re-soldering every flippin' LED on my newly acquired Fidelity Excellence, I can be thereSteve B wrote:Co-TITLES will be awarded with member Jon from Australia providing TWO trophies
I should point out that I can only afford one trophy. So if it is a drawer, then I was going to recycle my (very) Long Service award from the company I used to work for. Should keep both of us happy - it has a wooden base and a plastic monolith on the top Actually, maybe I can save even more money. Steve can have the wood base and Harvey can have the plastic bit I need to spend the trophy money on replacement feet for my Excellence.

i need as many witnesses as i can get for this HISTORY making Event should i win
i mean i think its fair to say..that NEVER before in the long history of computer chess has Hiarcs 3 lost to the Resurrection in a match...ever
by the same token..if Res is losing its OK to just leave and make believe you just lost the internet connection
Covering every angle regards

Ah. Alain, I wondered why you were so quiet. I thought perhaps you had your head down and were analysing with all the concentration of a Super GMAlainza wrote:Hi Steve,

Re: Collector's Corner..Grudge Match Tiebreaker This Sunday
My thanks to Steve and Harvey for another interesting game! I was particulary impressed by the 14 year old Hallsworth opening book still proving it's worth and the tenacious way Fruit hung on in there
Special respect has to go to Steve for getting up at 5am on Easter Sunday, no man hath greater love for dedicated computer chess!
Too many easter eggs regards
