Hello everyone,
Registration is now closed for CCT 12.
A final list of participants can be seen here.
We have an even number of entrants (Yay!) so I won't have to enter something else to get around a bye.
The times on the website are correct and up to date, so please make sure you double check to make sure you arrive on time.
It is free to obtain a FICS account to observe the game and kibitz with the authors, and as usual, all conversation for the tournament will happen in channel 64.
Good luck to all who entered.
Peter Skinner

I was kicked out of Chapters because I moved all the Bibles to the fiction section.

No Rybka, Stockfish or Fritz too bad. However it should be an interesting tournament.

Fritz is not participating for a long time now and Rybka's author has chickened out it seems....JManion wrote:No Rybka, Stockfish or Fritz too bad. However it should be an interesting tournament.

Re: CCT12: Registration Closed!
You seem to get a real kick out of repeatedly casting slurs on the Rybka author. Personally I don't think it's acceptable.Dr.Wael Deeb wrote:Fritz is not participating for a long time now and Rybka's author has chickened out it seems....JManion wrote:No Rybka, Stockfish or Fritz too bad.

Nothing wrong with that....I only say that he has calculated his chances and realized that there is a big possibility not to win this event so he backed down....it's true and you know it....it will be a bad marketing sign for the upcoming Rybka 4 release....Graham Banks wrote:You seem to get a real kick out of repeatedly casting slurs on the Rybka author.

Excuses like I have no time or there is no available hardware can easily be told to my parrot although I doubt that he'll take them for granted....

I am not at all a fan of the Rybka Cloud thing and the clone or not clone issue is rather confusing and as yet unsettled....BUT in the few private dealings I have had with Vas that would fall under customer service, he has been nothing BUT exemplary so as of now, I look forward to purchasing Rybka 4! (and even there I am worried he won't have the human and/or dynamic versions!)
But again based on my dealings with him he seems like a stand up guy!

Re: CCT12: Registration Closed!
I agree and the only thing I have against him is not releasing the Rybka 3+ as he promised....Decent and correct relationships with people has always been a main issue in my life and work....tomgdrums wrote:Dr.Wael Deeb wrote:Nothing wrong with that....I only say that he has calculated his chances and realized that there is a big possibility not to win this event so he backed down....it's true and you know it....it will be a bad marketing sign for the upcoming Rybka 4 release....Graham Banks wrote:You seem to get a real kick out of repeatedly casting slurs on the Rybka author.
