Subject: Paris Results Round 7 Part II ( and News )

Indeed, Thorsten's report came so late because CSTal had also a very
long game.

There will be no rating for national teams in the WMCCC.

Frederic Friedel arrived in the tournament hall today ( Wednesday )
at 18.20  Paris time.

Both Alphas with 767 MHz are running stably .

In the tournament hall they have a "chair counter":
Operators have to sit on folding chairs. The problem is: When your
game becomes exciting and you are sitting only only the fore edge,
the chair will fold, bringing you down to the ground.

10 Persons had experienced this already, and everybody thought that
the number would stabilize at 10. But today a new operator ( don't
know which program ) became number 11.

By the way, from the tournament hall the participants can look
directly into the interior of the Bourse, and yesterday, when the
"Crash" was, it sounded as if in the football stadion 3 goals happen
directly after each other.

Thorsten will try to phone me again tomorrow around 12.00 Paris time.
