On-line blitz tourney September

Post by hgm »

The engine blitz tourney for September will be next Saturday. Be there with your favorite engine!

Saturday September 19, 3 pm EST (21:00 CET).

The IP address of my ICS is 80.100.28.169. So you can connect through the command

winboard -autoKibitz -ics -icshost 80.100.28.169 -icshelper timeseal -zp -fcp yourengine.exe -fd yourenginefolder

(If it is a UCI engine you would of course have to add -fUCI)

I got a password for the first time (and my internet connection went down $%@#$%).
It is still valid?

Dang it, having trouble connecting... Had to reformat my computer and now winboard crashes on startup. Is there some trick to using it on Vista?

Where is the most recent winboard download anyway?
