Hi Graham, thanks for the tournament, it's good to see Hamsters safe... though not by much! Is it possible to use version 0.3 for next tournament? I'm quite curious to see if the (little) changes made are an improvement at such a long time control...

Hi Alessandro,

of course I'll be using Hamsters 0.3 in the next cycle and I too am looking forward to seeing what further gains you've made.

Because Ray and Charles have helped run some of the divisions in the 4th Championship, I made a blanket rule not to update to newer versions during any of the tournaments.
I don't mind doing it because it's second nature for me, but others find it too much of a chore!

Regards, Graham.

Hi !

Thanks to Charles and Graham. Nice tourney. It seems after a bad start Homer discouvered a bit.

Best,
Daniel

Well I hope you don't have to look backward but anyway don't expect much!
