7th Annual ACCA Pan American Computer Chess Championships

Post by CRoberson »

The event web pages are up including the registration page - http://compchess.org/ACCAChampionships/ ... Champ.html . If you have an ICC account, please register by Nov 16. If you don't have an ICC account, please register by Nov 12 to give ICC time to create free temp accounts and test your account and setup.

To avoid the annual confusion: the ACCA holds two events per year. One is the WCRCC (World Computer Rapid Chess Championships) which is open to all authors/researchers world wide and the other is the Pan American Championships (this tournament) which is only open to those in North, Central and South America including Greenland and Antarctica.
