I read:
Poll expires in 6 Days, 23 Hours, 54 Minutes

I think that I will be smarter 6 days from today so I delay my vote.

I also think I saw Junior and Fritz on the list of participants.
In that case your poll is wrong.

Zappa does not participate.

If you include Jonny, Diep etc. you shouldn't omit Isichess. - I don't think any of these will be Champion. But I think it would be fair to include all participants into a poll.

Go Micro-Max go! :mrgreen:

I was taken the current participant list from ICGA webpage (http://amsterdam2007.icga.org/) and Zappa is still listed on.

Yeah, next time i will list all participants, including Micro-Max 8-)

Junior and Fritz do not participate based on the list of participants.
It is not serious to say "I think that I saw" without giving a link.

I know that Junior and Fritz only today finished a match between them in elista and it is not logical that the programmers had time to go to the world championship that is in a different country.

Just for fun I voted for Shredder!

Unfortunately I could not vote for Shredder as first, second OR third. That would be a good guess! 8-)
