WCCC will start soon

[Viz]

This is somewhat sad to read but is pretty expected.
After all this is all "shashchess" "project" is about.
It's to boost amchess ego by receiving praises like "wow it's so good in testsuites" and also having 55 variations of the same engine so one can luck out a VVLTC low exit book win vs master and having smth like "wow it's so cool, it scales so well, sf devs don't know what they are doing" and other BS.
Participating in WCCC for him is the same thing. It's there to show off as an "author", to chat with other devs, spectators, everything else. This is all while the best code he can write looks like this - https://github.com/amchess/ShashChess/b ... h.cpp#L485 .
So more or less individual that is really narcissistic, a compulsive liar and also completely talentless is trying to make himself looking not like one at least in his own eyes by computer chess. This is ofc pretty pathetic. Oh, and before any mod takes an action - everything I said is factually correct.

Well the WCCC is going very good for me too. I lost only two games against the world champions, got draw against strong engines and won against weaker engines like Ares and Tech. So I got 50 percent from the WCCC and I am very happy with the unexpected results of my engine Tornado.

The wifi didn't work (there's a conference with a few thousand people next door) so they laid cabled internet. Then some teams discovered the network is completely firewalled so the tournament machines aren't accessible.

I'm hoping 5G works or it will be a short tournament.

Yes, there was a very bad internet connection, it's a shame for a world chess champion chip where all needs remote play over the internet.
