Re: On-line engine blitz tourney September
Thanks to everyone for the replies. I intend to join the next event. But I have no online tournament experience. So please bear with me for some points of doubt.hgm wrote:Ah yes, forgot to mention that. Although in principle, when you would be there logged in as a guest under a sensible name I could upgrade the account on the fly. (It would just cause an annoying delay in the start of the tourney if I would have to do that for many people.)Maarten Claessens wrote:... and you need a (computer-)account to log in with on the server.
1. How to get an account
2. Time control
3. Own opening book needed? My winboard engine (nameless.exe) can load epd/pgn.
4. I hope winboard-4.4.4 will work and the following command is ok:
winboard -zp -ics -icshost winboard.nl -icshelper timeseal -fcp "nameless.exe" -fd "c:\MyChess" -autoKibitz
5. How much reserve time (beyond allowed time per move) is needed to avoid loss on time due to communication delay?
It would be an achievement . For that to happen I shall have to successfully join the tourney.And the idea of losing from Skipper can be unbearable

Send me a PM with your e-mail address,and I will create an account 'Nameless'.pkumar wrote:1. How to get an account
We usually play 5min + 1sec/move. The server will control this automatically.2. Time control
That is upto you. The ICS will just prompt WinBoard for moves, and WinBoard can get them from the GUI book or from your engine, and your engine can get them anyway it wants by itself.3. Own opening book needed? My winboard engine (nameless.exe) can load epd/pgn.
4.4.4? I am using 4.9.1! The command should work, but why use such a pre-historic version?4. I hope winboard-4.4.4 will work and the following command is ok:
winboard -zp -ics -icshost winboard.nl -icshelper timeseal -fcp "nameless.exe" -fd "c:\MyChess" -autoKibitz
If you use timeseal as -icshelper communication delay should not be counted against your engine's time; it measures time locally and sends it to the ICS. If your engine doesn't normally forfeit when playing games under WinBoard, it would not forfeit on the ICS.5. How much reserve time (beyond allowed time per move) is needed to avoid loss on time due to communication delay?

Re: On-line engine blitz tourney September
Well, 4.8.0 will do. I never got to publicly releasing a WinBoard binary of 4.9, which is mainly an XBoard improvement.
