Yes and processed. But you did not contribute in week-5. I assume that's why you ask?Vinvin wrote:Hello Ed, didn't you get my answers for week 6th ?Rebel wrote:Week-7 up...

My proposal for next one:Dariusz wrote:I hope participate in next.
-Have people signing up weekly
-The people that sign up send a position themselves for others to solve
-The contest is held with the positions sent by the players.
-The contest is over whenever there's clearly a player with more point(s) than the rest
Now, it's on the interest of the players themselves to send the hardest positions that they can find, and the contest never runs out of positions.
It's also for the benefit of computer chess, and we may get in there positions specially designed for the competition that wouldn't have been created otherwise.
A problem is that it's a more exclusive competition, since SYE only required people to start their engines, here they're required to send positions, which is hard. Maybe give 1 point to those that send positions (as they solved their own position) but allow everyone to participate even if they don't send one?
Your beliefs create your reality, so be careful what you wish for.
