Michael, I will play the Turniermaschine Vancouver.
If you want I can take a 2nd chess compi.

Have you already asked all the previous participants whether they want to play this time? Maybe not everybody knows that a new round is going to start.

Hello, Michael, hello everyone,

after the doping scandal in the last tournament I was in the monastery.
After meditations I would compete with the Reflection Vancouver.

Cheers

I planned to play the Reflection Lyon program, but as some Lang machines are already going to be runned I'd prefer another TASC King: R30 V2.23

so long, Walter

Hi,

I tend to participate with the Magellan, unless I find a way to play with my Mysticum. But as is has i7 hardware it should be far to strong using modern engines. Maybe Michael has a suggestion which emulation it could run to stay in the Elo-range.

Greetings, Gerhard

Hi,

following suggestion:

Ricardo has no alternative, so he plays with Mysticum Aristarch (and wins?).

Gerhard plays with his alternative chess computer Magellan.

Would that be ok for you?

I'll play with Atlanta! (plastic feeling, but acceptable strength... :wink: )

10 so far - enough? Regards, Michael

Hi all,

It’s fine by me.

I could always use lczero on PicoChess (Raspberry Pi) which is working 😃

Just a joke, it is working but this is a dedicated chess computer tournament within a certain grade range.


Cheers,

Al

Hì,

this year we will have a tournament with 10 participants. Within the next two or three days I will issue the tournament table. If not done until now please post the name of your chess computer, ELO value and your Lichess alias. Each person plays one chess computer.

Thanks, Michael
