ugh i'm sorry, might have to drop out of the tourney :/

We may also just postpone our match for a few weeks

Ok, just send the new challenge when you're ready

@miminena, you alright?
If you want I'm happy to replay the same 8 moves in a new game, and follow on from there, please let me know

I added a few simple formulas in the spreadsheet to automagically compute the current score of the players.

sorry, I just realized you are still busy with the previous round. Feel free to refuse my challenge

@miminena, I just sent you a challenge.
If you want to play the two games in parallel feel free to send a challenge back

perhaps it might be a good idea to put all this in a spread sheet, where we can update as we go and not worry about being de-synced/bound by an exact schedule? That's a great idea! @miminena, can yo do that? Otherwise I can create and share a Google sheet (I had already tried with G Forms, but unfo...

@Awhailnah, are you still interested in playing? Please let me know

@Everybody I set up a simple Google Form to track the games, just the round number, the names of the players, the link, and the result once the game ends. You can find it here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeQ7oqwtuWEgQrVjoY5U6t_9xIBLmpgxZgYCDDLjs3CyLXzQg/viewform?usp=sharing I inserted ...

Since I played so poorly in the Press edition let's see if I can do a bit worse here :? G1: 1. UnknownHero - 178 2. VirtualBob - 196 [unbelievable] 3. Trigfea63 - 291 4. hellalt - 725 5. gimix - 1269 6. KingRishard - 1,896 7. DougJoe - 2,090 G2: 1. French_boi - 16,285 2. Wusti - 16,754 3. Hughganoug...

Just a couple of notes: Bots do not know, and have no possibilities to know, who he human player(s) is/are. The system knows that, and once there's no human survivor it forces a draw, but the bots don't. And since they are not designed to learn from the games they play (they just hold to what they l...

Hey Awhailnah,
when you want we can start our second round games

Good games, Dougjoe. It's a pity that a couple of blunders ruined your position, especially in the Caro-Kann game

Just a side note. Dougjoe and I are playing our two games at the same time. I mean, with a duration of two days per move it's not so much effort. But if I'm not wrong all the other participants are just playing one game. This will make this tournament last even longer. What do everybody think about ...

This thread is becoming a chat between us two
I moved before reading your post, now I sent a takeback request, feel free to accept or refuse it. Thanks!

Oops. I didn't exactly replay our game (there was a Knight move before f6). Sorry for that, but it doesn't change so much so I think we can continue if you agree
