[Michael Sherwin]

Romi would like to know if she could give Oli a peptalk before each round!

[gladius]

I think GarboChess needs that same peptalk .

[swami]

This is interesting tournament, good to know that Chiron is in still doing better. No doubt Cyrano will win this one!

I hope that Slowchess atleast ends up in the Top 3. Slowchess will be playing in ACCA, so need some motivation!

OliThink 5.1.7 has now entered the fray. Let's see if it can make a better start.

There may not be room in the Top 3 for Slowchess. Traditionally, those slots are reserved for Rybka, Crafty, and LearningLemming. Perhaps Slowchess can fight it out with Naum and Thinker for 4th.

p.s. you should log on to ICC and play a few games of standard to get some sort of seeding. crafty, Arasan, and LearningLemming are often on recently and accepting games from all comers.

Hi Sam,

I was hoping that Slowchess would finish Top 3 in this _CCRL_ tournament.

I agree that it would be hard to get into Top 3 in ACCA's, I'd be delighted if it did indeed pull off. I'd challenge Arasan and Lemming at ICC just before the tourney, good luck!
