25th Amateur Series Division 6

[Sven]

Hi Sven,

yes, the engines unload at the end of each game and reload for subsequent games if that's what you mean,

Engines sometimes have good runs or bad runs. This is not unique to Knockout,

Unfortunately GTBs are not used at this stage, only EGTBs and EGBBs.

Cheers,
Graham.

Thanks for the info. Yes, that was what I meant.

I have no doubt that Knockout will end up somewhere near the top by the end of the tournament. Good luck!
