The January 2008 KGS computer Go tournament will be this Sunday, January 6th, in the Asian night, European evening and American morning, starting at 17:00 UTC (GMT) and ending about 21:00 UTC (GMT).

The Formal division will be an 8-round Swiss with 9x9 boards and 13 minutes each sudden death. The Open division will be a 4-round Swiss with 13x13 boards and 28 minutes each sudden death. Both will use Chinese rules with 7.5 points komi. There are details at http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=352 for the Formal division, and at http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=353 for the Open.

Registration is now open. To enter, please read and follow, as usual, the instructions at http://www.weddslist.com/kgs/how/index.html. The rules are given at http://www.weddslist.com/kgs/rules.html.

Registration emails (with the words "KGS Tournament Registration" in the title as usual) should be sent to me at maproom at gmail dot com (converted to a valid address in the obvious way).

I apologise for making this announcement late. I had been suffering from a cold which was not at all serious, except that it greatly reduced my competence at any task requiring thought.
