Just for the fun of it, here's how I see the ICC tournament shaking out. Lots of wild cards here, and in any tournament anything can happen. But here's my projected order of finish: Ferret Xeon/450 x4 Crafty Xeon/400 x4 Nimzo Xeon/616 Shredder Athlon/700 Little Goliath LambChop Kryotech/1ghz Diep P/200 x4 Insomniac P3/500 PostModernist P3/450 EXchess P3/500 GnuChess P3/500 Amateur G3/500 Hossa P3/500 Grok Athlon/650 Bringer P3/500 Tinker P3/600 Galahad K6/400 Averno P2/350 Shrike P3/500 TSCP K6/350 Ferret has just set a new blitz high on ICC, and holds the standard record as well. I think the odds are good for a top spot. Little Goliath is just incredibly strong, so I think it will give the top guys a good run. Lambchop and Diep are strong, but not dominating. Insomniac is a wild-card, could be strong, might wimp out. The rest are pretty much a tossup, anything could happen. PM or Tinker could surprise. Comments? Will
