I hope it will take place coming saturday.
My engine is in a terrible state lately, but it is always fun to watch it play.

Yes, there will be a blitz tourney this weekend:

Saturday 20 October, 3pm EST (21:00 CET)

Note that I have a new IP address, since I switched provider! So to connect you now need a different command:

winboard -zp -ics -icshost 83.163.204.254 -icshelper timeseal -fcp ENGINE.exe -fd ENGINEFOLDER -autoKibitz

(for UCI engines, add -fUCI).

Fear the Gaviota !! :D I'm sure Miguel or I will be there, although I'm not 100% sure at the moment.

I changed the IP-address to 83.163.204.254 but i'm not able to connect.
Is the server down? Or is there a problem with your router setup?

The ICS had migrated from internal IP 192.168.2.2 to ...2.3.

It should be fixed now, I adapted the router's port translation accordingly.

It still doesn't work. Maybe xs4all is blocking something?
What port does your ics use? Is it 23 or 5000?

Indeed, a few minutes after I redefined the NAPT tables, the router went dead again. And after the restart it had moved the ICS back to ...2.2! :shock:

I adapted the tables again, so it should work now.
