Test 2: If test 1 is a tie, add up the scores for each opponent you played against. This is called the "sum of opponents' scores". If you played tough opponents (high scores), you will get more credit than someone who played weaker opponents.

Test 3: If test 2 is also a tie, then you take each computer's point score after each round and sum them. So a computer who's rounds went: 1, 1, 0.5, 0 would have end-of-round scores of: 1, 2, 2.5, 2.5 and his total is 1 + 2 + 2.5 + 2.5 = 8.

The rate I believe there are three different awards being given at WMCCC. If test 1 was a tie, they will use tests 2 and 3 to pick the two best in that category and have them play one game to decide who to give the award to. >>of play for a play-off game will be all moves in one hour, or such other rate as >>the TD may specify, considering the time available to play the game. >> >> >>Helmut
