Maverick at WCCC 2015

Post by Steve Maughan »

Maverick is definitely the favorite to come last in this event Nevertheless it should be fun.

I've put up a pre-tournament video here:

I'll try to blog about it as the tournament progresses.

If possible I'll also try to set up a web meeting so anyone can follow my screen. I'll post the link later.

Very nice idea to stream your desktop and it looks great. :D
I didn't know that way is possible.

Any familiar people there ? For instance who is the operator of Komodo ?

Chatting does not seem to work on my computer.

Don't know if I am going to Leiden this week. Have seen enough computer chess games. Or is there enough to see there for visitors ?

Erogan Günes is the Komodo operator and Mark Lefler is there too.

Hans van der Zijden is the backup komodo operator, as far as I know.

Ray, I think Komodo's entering each of the contests (blitz and wscc included).
