This is what you do.

Contact the icc admin and tell them that you were eating a hotdog at that moment and that the hotdog is what you were refering to in the above chat.

It might work.
Already tried that.. I just asked have you ever heard of oscar meyer? No response yet, the revocation is only temporary. Who knew that you could get revoked for saying weiner..Anyway, once you are included in to the tournament all those other things doesnt apply. For example, I am censored by Chessthinker (for cussing out the autotalk), yet I was able to play against it in the last tournament.
8-) Okay, but it might be a good idea to ground your inner child for a couple weeks! :lol:
If I knew that I could get revoked for something that simple, I wouldnt have said anything. I will just duct tape the inner child until the 9th.

Yeah, I can play lots of games at home, but nothing builds confidence for me that things will work well for the ICC tournament than playing lots of ICC games. Anyway, games at home are boring to me (not sure why).

If there is competition for your computer or connection, we could set them up to play all night (9pm to 6am kind of thing). Or not. No marathon matches are necessary, just offering for potential entertainment, creating a learn file for you that works particularly well against LL is not really my goal :).

Next time I see you online, I will just start a match, I think you have autorematch enabled and I had to temporarily add you to the censor list once.

I am about to start a match against Learning Lemming on ICC with the old version of Romi. Ponder is disabled as Romi has time management problems when ponder is on. Romi's current rating is 2505..Note that to play against Learning Lemming I have to turn no escape on. Which means even if the program close by accident, then I lose. Argh some human is playing against Lemming..I wont be able to talk or send messages, or kibitz on ICC, as I said my talking privileges are currently revoked..

I just checked..He's gotta be kidding me, he is playing Rybka3 against Learninglemming to get points. I guess I am such a hypocrite, I played against minimardi few minutes ago..

You will note Lemming got a draw against Rybka 3 on quad in that game :). So he lost points going 1.5/2. Lemming is popular recently but if I see your engine on I will start things going. Not sure what name is though (unless it is obvious like Romi or something).

Ahh..I see you, non-obvious name. Will challenge you to 8 2 match after I draw this other version of Rybka 3 :). 82 is 1/5 of time control for tourney, so keeps ratio of increment to non-increment the same.

another 1/5 / 2 against a different Rybka 3 and we are both finally free. However, your formula will not allow me to challenge :(

Your engine scares me by getting draws against Rybka's quite often. Romi on the other hand can barely get draws against some strong humans after they make the mistakes. Note that I have turned ponder off, so it affects the strength. If you were looking at apocalypse1112, then that's me. I tried to get matches against you many times, but either other engines were hogging your time, or I was playing against someone. I guess someone turned off the chess while I went to sleep. What do you mean by saying my formula wont allow me to match you? I think it is your formula, I have set noescape to 1 before I can match you every time. I was trying to get 5/5 like you said earlier. When ever I see you online again, I will try to match you.
