I am not part of any engine team.

Of course, you are not part of anything. But I thought you'd never bother to do any research.

How come you found the WCCC message in Discord, but didn't find the Stockfish response in the very same Discord message?

BTW who is this 'I' in the quote 'I decided...''?

This was a difficult case to consider. In the end, I decided that the WCCCs would be a better competition with a Stockfish variant than without (especially given the special nature of this particular year's competition).

Great, if "Stockfish" finally plays at WCCC!

I do hope that Tornado isn't going to use a Stockfish net.

I've heard whisperings around the authenticity of Raptor.

I hope tornado will use stockfish net, would be appropriate for such a shitshow.

Those people never liked anyone outside their circle anyways, not hard to imagine how people this desperate for attention would eventually come together.
