Hiarcs is participating in the tournament starting tomorrow. I will post updates as often as I can. The list of participants is here http://www.csvn.nl/index.php/nieuws/51- ... nday-may-1

I am at the tournament and will update as often as I can. If the moderators delete this post as they did at the last tournament 6 months ago then this will be my last post on Talkchess. This is one of the major Computer Chess events and therefore should be in the main forum here.

It'll be interesting to see how HIARCS and Shredder square off against each other. What's with using 27 cores though..?

Hi Harvey,

thank you for posting. Nice to see that The King is participating. Do you know whether Johan is playing with a new version of his program?

Kind Regards
