Perhaps Paul
the one glimmer of hope I have is that the Engine in the Premiere will be Lang's Vancouver engine..and not the Spracklen engine..so I justify this to myself by rationalizing that.. in a way.. it is not a 100% Fidelity
still..its in the same Housing as the Mobile Master and it will be hard for me to look at the computer without being reminded of the traumatic events of 2009
ill tell you this....
if the Premiere does not at least score 50%(2.5-2.5) in this event.. I will have had enough..and it goes directly from the Tournament hall to...
Ebay Regards

As much as I'd love to participate in this tournament, I'm away from the 4th to the 23rd of November on a Transatlantic Cruise so can't make the date(s) suggested here,

Hi Al
the dates proposed are in August
you will be away from August 4th to November 23rd?
Wow
Thats Some Cruise Regards

This would be a good time to get your revanche!?
The only good competitor U2200 I have is the Master Chess. So I would like to play with that one. Or else the Brute Force.
U2100 I have more choice...
Waiting for others to vote or choose regards,
Paul
Hi Paul,
I think Ricardo only possesses the Master which he played with in the U2300 tournament in 2015. So if you don't mind I would reserve the Master for him so he can play in the tournament.
The Brute Force is a great choice too, it has been a long time since someone entered it. Pity that Sparc just missed the cut off. Or maybe your Dutch friends Hein etc.. have something special that they could loan you for this weekend
Best regards
Hi Nick,
It seems there are more Master Chess candidates (Milano Pro is a clone)...
But ok, since Steve is gonna win this tournament anyway I will serve as the underdog then with my Brute Force.
I would like to participate, but will be in the swiss mountains from August 1. till 14th without Internet access. Any date after August 14 is possible.
It is difficult for me to chose a machine, in the proposed range I have only a Senator and a Milano pro, but it would make a nice opportunity to aquire a machine fitting the range...

If you take a closer look at the Wiki list...
the Premiere has only 34 games played for that rating of 2190
a smaller number of games played than almost every other computer near its rating and one of the smallest number of games played on the entire list..this results in a possible swing in rating of +/- 106 Pts
I could be operating a computer really rated less then 2100

On a second look you will see a Vancouver 68020 12MHz with 2218 elo, and a Vancouver 68000 12MHz with 2179 elo. Your Premiere has a Vancouver 68000 16 MHz, and the Vancouver is considered Lang's best program, so what risc do you have, apart from

Being beaten up by my Brute Force regards,
Paul
It's not so bad Paul If I play with the Designer Mach IV that is only rated 11 points higher than you
Besides yours is a Morsch and my suspicion is that Morsch will do pretty well at 30 Minute game.
PS... Ricardo will argue till he is blue in the face that Master is different to Milano Pro
I will serve as the underdog then with my Brute Force.
