On-line engine blitz tourney September

[hgm]

The monthly on-line engine blitz tourney for September will take place on:

Saturday September 20, 3pm Boston time (21:00 Amsterdam time)

To connect:

winboard -zp -ics -icshost winboard.nl -icshelper timeseal -fcp ENGINE.exe -fd ENGINEFOLDER -autoKibitz

(for UCI engines, add -fUCI)

This is on the same ICS as last month's tourney, which is a different one from that used last year (which suffered a head crash of its HD). So if you did not participate recently, chances are that you need to apply for an account first.

...which is a different one from that used last year (which suffered a head crash of its HD)...

Must be very very very very low quality hardware since every month keeps crashing LOL

I don't know if I will be available, I need my account to be recreated. I'll write you a PM.

Thanks,
Natale.

Hi HGM, did you delete login names recently? I can't login with Barbarossa

[nionita]

Ok, I got it... Didn't read last line

Maybe next time...

Oh sorry, I forgot to look here before starting it.

Stockfish was playing on 1 core, but it was still enough to win. Not with a clean slate, however.

Micro-Max had a top day, beating Spartacus and drwaing Joker! (Playing on half a core, as it does not ponder. )

QBMonteCarlo was Folkert van Heusden's MC version of Queen Bee.

Can it be that I'm missing "POS" in this list? It is on-line?

[hgm]

Yes, it was on line, but I decided to try QBMC instead. If you want control over what plays in the tourney and what not, you should at least instruct me, and preferably be present when we start, so you can join them yourself.
