On-line engine blitz tourney results' website still active?

[MahmoudUthman]

I'm not sure if this is the correct sub-forum to ask in, if not my apologies.
back in 2017 or 2019 there used to be a website for the results of the On-line engine blitz tourney organized here, by one of the members of this site, I don't remember who it was, but the tourney itself used to be hosted by HGM IIRC, is the site still up, or if not any idea what it's URL was maybe there's an archived version somewhere?

I remember that there was a website with results from the online engine blitz tournaments, but it hasn't been updated in a long time, and I'm not sure if it still exists.

In October 2019, HGM experienced severe server issues, so I temporarily hosted the online engine blitz tournament until those problems were resolved. However, that temporary solution has turned into a permanent arrangement, and it seems HGM is no longer interested in it.

I still have all the results from the tournament, starting in October 2019 and continuing to the present. If you're interested, I can email them to you.

It still exists, because I did it ;)

True is though, I haven't updated it since long.

yeah, just found it from your footer, https://rwbc-chess.de/HGMT/HGM_tourneys.htm , stopped at the end of 2019 so I guess with the transition of management

That is a blast from the past. Crafty had its moment of glory on one occasion as did Gaviota.

I still have all the results from the tournament, starting in October 2019 and continuing to the present. If you're interested, I can email them to you.

Sure, I'd appreciate that, I pmed you my email

I mailed them, please let me know if you got them.
Somehow I missed the result from December 2020, I was able to restore it from talkchess, now it should be complete.

If you want to add the results from the last 4 years to your website I can mail them to you as well.

I could add them, but I don't promise about any time it will be integrated and also I am not sure, if I update the eternal table.
(this requires some extra work, but at least the Mahoon system was abolished, which complicated those stats, because I first
had to transform the results with some script into normal points.)
Can you send them in one txt file? Will it include the comments from you, posted together with each table?

I noticed with my specific search that a post about the May 2024 tournament is missing. Did it happen or was it cancelled?
In a quick check I fould all other results.

search.php?st=0&sk=t&sd=d&sr=posts&keyw ... =titleonly

[Joost Buijs]

Indeed, the tournament from May 2024 was skipped.

The results are in separate .txt files for each month because the tournament date is part of the filename, there is no date in the files itself. They contain no comments from me, only the tournament results. I will compress them into a single archive and mail them to you tomorrow.
