That is what they are really aiming for. Perhaps yes. If I would participate I would have to be a team with Adrien Regimbald, since he wrote Faile on which Sjeng is based. I don't object to this, but if I mention him as my 'teammate' I should also mention other people who have contributed parts of Sjeng. That 'team' would then consist of myself, Adrien Regimbald, Daniel Clausen, Dann Corbit, Lenny Taelman, Ben Nye, Ronald De Man, David Dawson, Georg von Zimmermann, Nubie, Eugene Nalimov and I would probably still have forgotten some people. I don't think this is really what you want... Actually, I would very seriously consider to participate since the tournament is at a good date for me, and I always wanted to go to a live event like this. However, there's a few practical problems: a) You need to be a CSVN member. How? Do I have to get out my purse again ? :( b) Leiden isn't too far from Gent I suppose, and I could probably even find my way to it with a good map (I really suck at stuff like that) or use the train (at least I'd have a good excuse for being late then). At first I considered getting the comp actually there, but that's kinda hard considering I don't have a laptop and my means of transportation is a motorbike. Marcel Van Kervick recommended me to leave the comp home, and use telnet/ssh to play the games there. That would be a nice solution, but I still need a comp for the telnet access then :-/ (I assume this is why you offer the telnet access in the first place? To be able to play at home?) c) Since the games are 2 x 2 consecutive days, I'd need a place to sleep. Hmm, I hope Leiden has some cheapo hotels :) d) There's probably stuff I have to add to my program to be able to deal with the situations that will come up during such a tournament...any hints? -- GCP
