Thanks for including MinimalChess! It's the engines first big tournament (and only the third after Zatour 1 & 2) and I'm excited to follow the live broadcast!

Something happened? I can't write messages + Axalotl thinks for a very long time, as if the server stopped responding here: http://tlcv.net/. It looks like the problem is on different ports
