( I am stilling missing the finesses of this text editor ... ) Directly at the end of round 8 Thorsten Czub ( operator of CSTal ) phoned me to give the information through for the internet. His game had been the longest of the round, and so he was unable to go from table to table to collect information about the other games. He wanted to tell me the results of all games, but suddenly the sheet with the handwritten results was no longer at the wall. He tried to get another copy or printout, but there was none available within a few minutes ( phone running ... ). Finally he got a sheet with the cummulative scores of the programs after round 8; I had an analogous list for round 7; and I knew the pairings for round 8 from ICC. So I was able to deduce the game results by substractions (hope- fully correct ). If you are in the tournament hall tomorrow ( Friday ) and maybe also on the other days you may help us by feeding Thorsten with relevant and interesting data. It is very difficult for him to operate CSTal and to play reporter at the same time. >Gambit Site: ... >> and the tournament results are written by hand on a small piece >> of paper which is stuck to the wall! >Results are written by hand during the round, when each game is >finished. >So you have instant-information.
