The 2006 Slow KGS computer Go tournament will be next week, starting at
00:00 on Monday 18th UCT (GMT). It will be a five round Swiss, with
each game taking a full day (i.e. eleven hours fifty minutes each,
sudden death). Each game is scheduled to start at midnight in my UK
timezone, so the five rounds will occupy Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday.
With apologies for the short notice - I want to get this done before the
end of the year, so as to at least partly keep to promises made earlier.
You can regard it as a test slow tournament.
The rules are, 19x19 boards, Chinese rules, 7.5 points komi. Apart from
the long time limits, it will be like the previous KGS bot tournaments
that I have organised. The entrance requirements will be slightly
tighter than for the Open divisions of those, at my discretion - e.g., I
don't want several slightly modified versions of GNU Go playing, but I
will welcome a genuine GNU Go and SlugGo.
