The December 2006 KGS computer Go tournament will be next Sunday,
December 3rd, in the European morning and Asian evening,
starting at 09:00 UTC and ending at about 14:00 UTC.
Both divisions will be five-round Swiss, and use 19x19 boards with 28
minutes sudden death, Chinese rules, and 7.5 points komi. There are
details at http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=246 and at
http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=247.
Please note two important changes since the September event, brought
about by a major upgrade to the KGS server:
1.
The server is at a new address, goserver.gokgs.com (the old one was
goserver.igoweb.org).
2.
Clean-up at the end of the game is now supported. If your bot does not
support clean-up, it risks losing won games to a bot that does support
it. To avoid this, you should either arrange for your bot to support
clean-up, or for it to capture all dead enemy stones before it passes.
Registration is now open. To enter, please read and follow the
instructions at
http://www.weddslist.com/kgs/how/index.html. The rules are given at
http://www.weddslist.com/kgs/rules.html.
