Subject: ICC CCT Suggestion

Author: José Carlos

  I have a couple of suggestions. Let's see:

  I think we could agree a rule for next CCT's: use the classification of the
previous edition as initial rating, and 'new' programs should always go after
the 'veterans' of the tournament.
  This would sure make some 'unfair' seedings now and then, but it has the
advantage of being an objective criterium (no discussion and therefore
disagreement) and people would have just another reason not to miss it: keeping
the position for the next edition seeding :)
  As this tournament is begining to become a classic, we could have kind of a
rating of CCT. For example, we could give 15 points to the winner, 14 to the
second and so on until 1 point for the 15th. Sum the points in the n-last
editions and we'd have a CCT rating. Similar to F1 world championship.
  Winners of the tournament can get a title: ICC Master. So we have two ICCM's:
Crafty and Shredder.

  More suggestions soon :)
