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?

I think in their "two months of discussion", there has never been attempts made to consult proper SF authors for their opinions already tells a lot about the nature of WCCC.

Then such a relay of words are convinently twisted and subject to obmission as per expected.

For the record, this is what the discord message looked like:

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).

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

I've heard whisperings around the authenticity of Raptor.

Why do ICGA want any SF to participate in the first place? A walking reminder of their past failure?

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