The January 2007 KGS computer Go tournament will be next Sunday, January
7th, in the European evening and American morning, starting at 17:00 UTC
and ending at about 23:00 UTC.
The Formal division will be six-round Swiss, and use 9x9 boards with 28
minutes sudden death, Chinese rules, and 7.5 points komi. The Open
division will be four-round Swiss, and use 13x13 boards with 43 minutes
sudden death, Chinese rules, and 7.5 points komi. There are details at
http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=262 and at
http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=263.
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.
