Is there any 10x8 engine competition being planned next year?

Best regards, Reinhard.

I just noticed on Open-Chess forum that you had a new SMIRF!

I have not decided about a new competition yet. I don't plan that far ahead. I also don't know if other people improved their engine. Perhaps I should work on mine...

[Modern Times]

Tried the server just now, seems to be massively laggy and unresponsive. Might be worth checking.

[Modern Times]

Seems OK now

My amnesia is a surprising thing ...
Capivara not participated in this tournament simply because I forgot to turn on the my computer today, and ...

I need a vacation, urgently ...

[smrf]

Well, current private version SMIRF MS-179d today should be able to compete much better in 10x8 chess variants. I purged some obvious bad details, nevertheless it still remains based on its initial ad hoc approach. I have no idea, whether there still are active 10x8 chess program developers.

[Greg Strong]

Good to see you back, Reinhard!

I'm still active, too, but not all that close to having something competitive...

[Evert]

Depends on what you call active.

I haven't had a great deal of time to work on Sjaak recently, but it's certainly not abandoned...
