Is the host up? I cannot connect.

Also, in case I will be able to connect, can you autojoin zurichess? I won't be at home when the contest starts.

Ditto on both counts. I am currently unable to connect (1 hour and 15 minutes before tournament time), nor will I be able to join Myrddin when the tournament starts.

I'll keep trying to join as often as I can. If I make it, can somebody ask HG to join Myrddin, please?

Many thanks in advance,
jm

Under linux I did this:

Code: Select all

$ at 20:55 <<EOF
> xboard -options
> EOF

This should start xboard at 20:55. Please autojoin zurichess.

Apparently they rebooted the host. The ICS was running a few hours ago, but not anymore.

I now started it up again.

What do the +- sign before the engine names mean ?
