They know and almost all players in the final use computers.
I believe that only one of the players does not use computers.
using computers is allowed by the rules.

There are players who prefer not to use computers but almost
all of them were eliminated in previous stages.

The main reason that I win the competition is the fact that I
use more computer time per game then my opponents.

I decided not to play in other tournaments when the opponents play
in other tournaments so they have more games to play in the same time.

The result is that my programs outsearch the opponent
in a lot of games.
