2012 6th Annual ACCA World Computer Rapid Chess Championship

Post by CRoberson »

Hello researchers/competitors..,

When do you want to have the 2012 WCRCC? We tried in August one
year and had our worst turn out. June and July seem to be the best.

Send me a response on when in June or July: which weekends are good
for you as well as which are bad.

So, far the emails say anytime is good. One said the weekend of June 23 is best.

There is still time to give your input.

The weekend for the tournament is still open and June 23 just became very bad beyond my control. So, it will not be that weekend.

Operators may not register a program. The author must do that and inform me of the operator.

June 23 was looking good, but that is no longer true. Add that to the US holiday on July 4th and the weekends of June 30 and July 7 are not good.

This leaves us with the weekends of June 16, July 14, July 21 and July 28.

Send your thoughts here or via email/PM.

We are down to the weekends of July 14/15 and July 21/22.
Send your thoughts here or via email/PM. I want to finalize the date in the next few days.

Thanks Charles.

For some reason I had it in my head that this was a USA only tournament!

I could have also have looked at the website ;)
