The on-line engine blitz tourney for June will be held
Saturday June 18, 3pm EST (21:00 CET)
To connect, you can use:
winboard -zp -ics -icshost 80.100.28.169 -icshelper timeseal -fcp ENGINE.exe -fd ENGINEFOLDER -autoKibitz
(for an UCI engine, append -fUCI). If you insist on using Arena, be sure to test it the day before on this server; that it works on FICS or ICC is no guarantee hat it works on my ICS as well, as all these ICS are subtly different. In the past peopleusing Arena have had problems that their games would not start on command of the Tournament Manager, so the had to disconnect and restart by hand every game.

Re: On-line Blitz tourney June
should probably read -fd ENGINEFOLDER, so you have successfully tested whether your announcement is being read-df ENGINEFOLDER

Re: On-line Blitz tourney June
Ah, sorry, my fault. The registration is not automatic (the e-mail arrives on another machine than the one hosting the ICS), so I had to do it by hand. I remember seeing yor e-mail, but it must have slipped my mind actually doing it. (I was on holiday in Greece at the time.)
It should work now.

Hi HGM,
since you are in the mood of fixing things
Have you thought of a solution to the problem I mentioned to you lately, of some internet provider blocking the port one should use to connect to your ICS?
Cheers, Mauro

Re: On-line Blitz tourney June
Is there a git repository with the source code of Variant-ICS?
There are some useful commands on FICS and ICC that are apparently
not implemented on Variant-ICS (some of which icsdroneng uses).

Re: On-line Blitz tourney June
The sources can be found in my on-line git repository at http://hgm.nubati.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi , where I also keep the fairymax, xboard and polyglot sources. It is called capablanca.git there.
Note that the version there refuses to compile on Ubuntu 9.04 and later. Arun Persaud solved this for me, recently, so I could finally upgrade from my 8.04 (with all disastrous consequences upgrades normally give you, like suddenly non-working hardware...). But I did not push that patch (in a Perl script) yet to the repository.
I have not worked on the ICS for a long time. I also did not check out if there is an option to connect it to multiple ports. I guess it should be able to do this by port mapping, without the ICS even knowing, right? Just map external port 28 of my router to port 5000 of the machine on my LAN that runst the ICS, and it should work?
