There were not so many participants, probably due to vacation and the olympic games on television.
This time Nightmare was the lucky one, with Arasan, Stockfish (HCE) and Marvin on a shared second place.

Is this server open outside of tournaments? I got a new computer and am trying to get everything set up, but I never get a response and it times out before I get to the login prompt.

[CRoberson]

Will the next one be Sept 7 or Sept 14?

It wont be Sept 7, I have to talk to Lisebeth and Bart to set a date for the next one.
When I've got a date I will post it, and send you a mail too.

Sorry for my late response.

The server is currently not online. It used to be online 24/7, besides tournaments nobody seems to use it that's why it's turned off. This weekend I will put it back online.
