Thanks to Mr. Schroeder and Terry the match will continue normally without any delay, in the absent of Ed Panek and Myself for being away on vacation. Very soon you should be able to continue to submit your reply to Gambit Tiger II, since Mr Schroeder should hopefully have the move updated by then. For some unknown reason three of the participants with the strongest programs did not participated in the last two votes such as: Deep Fritz, Deep Junior and Deep Shredder. Now that give people and owner of other good programs a better chance to win the weekly prize and also the overall prize of the DGT Board. There are still some very strong humans participating and making very solid moves, and among the reamining participants there are still people using very strong programs escially in very long time control such as Rebel Century 3, Fritz 6, Shredder 5, Chess Academy 6.0, CM8K ,and even gambit Tiger 1, plus some winboard programs like Crafty 18.3 and Amy 0.7. Again this might be your best week to win a weekly prize. To my surprise the winboard programs are doing a great job in longer time control, they are scoring very good so far. Don't miss the opportunity to win a weekly prize an a chance to win the overall prize during the entire game for the most points accumulated which started last tuesday. Finally, for those that of you that think that you don't have a chance against the Beast Tiger II, the Web won the first game against Gambit Tiger 1. This simple fact demonstrate that the competition against the Web is of the very highest caliber, since most people are assisted by very good chess programs to avoid any serious blunder. I took a moment from my vacation to encourage you all to continue to send your votes, and to give Gambit Tiger II the ultimate challenge. http://www.rebel.nl/gt2-web.htm Pichard.
