So, what do you suppose happened?
o Luck - it does happen in computer chess tournaments. When it
does happen there are major ripples for several rounds.
o You gave away too much info on CCC. So, your opponents were
able to prepare for your openings.

i was hoping this thread would die of old age
:P
the MM played very consistently throughout the tournament
it wound up losing ALL 5 GAMES!
:(
i probably gave away much too much info during the MM's worldwide training tour ..but hey..i enjoyed doing it.. and it got fairly good view totals(probably 90% of the views were by my fellow competitors)

there is talk that next years event will be capped at 2400 Elo so i am planning on operating the all powerful and impossibly rare...

Tasc R40(V2.5) Regards

Plans have now been finalized for this years Paris event
To be played on May 2nd the upper elo limit seems to be 2400 although not yet 100% definite

extensive preparations are now underway in order that i can avoid last years debacle of scoring 0-5
