All those engines that don't participate are scared of playing against Skipper. Losing from Skipper would be the ultimate disgrace.

Cool. Nemeton will likely play.

Is there an Android app with which I can log in to the winboard.nl server and follow games away from PC?

'Mobialia Chess', works nicely with FICS, I assume it will work with HGM's server as well.

Isn't the path to the server hard-coded?

If you can keep PC turned on, then you can use Microsoft Remote Desktop for Android. It works fine.

Cool!

I'd like to join with all the engines that I run. If possible. Else please let PuppetMaster join.

Thanks!

Your are right, all addresses are hardcoded. Pity, I didn't expect somebody to design something so stupid.

Hi H.G.,

I wanted to run Myrddin in this tournament but I'm not going to be home starting about 90 minutes before the first round. If I cornnect Myrddin can you include it in the tournament?

Many thanks in advance,

jm

Sure. If it is still logged in when we start. Make sure to use -keepAlive 3 or something like that as extra option, so the server won't log you out.
