The monthly engine blitz tourney for February will be held
Saturday February 18, 3pm EST (21:00 CET)
As always, you can connect through
winboard -zp -ics -icshost 80.100.28.169 -icshelper timeseal -fcp ENGINE.exe -fd ENGINEFOLDER
with possibly
-fUCI added when your engine is UCI. Be there some 15 min in advance! It is your last chance to test your on-line setup before CCT!
See you Saturday!

I'll try and be there, but if not feel free to add the 4 *js bots to the tourney. They've been running for a while unattended so should be stable enough to play.

Did you forget the -autoKibitz option?

Oops, yes, I did!
So the full command is
winboard -zp -ics -icshost 80.100.28.169 -icshelper timeseal -fcp ENGINE.exe -fd ENGINEFOLDER -autoKibitz
(The
-autoKibitz option will make WinBoard kibitz your own engine's thinking output, which makes sure the ICS will recognize the kibitz format, so that the score/depth info will be included in the PGN games you request from it through the 'mailstored' command. In addition it will make opponent kibitz appear in the engine-output window, so that his PVs become available for you on the variation board. Although in blitz games there usually isn't enough time to study these.)
