What makes an internet tournament any less real or serious that any other tournament? I have participated in both types of tournaments, and they seem equally real to me. I can assure you that they were taken pretty seriously by most participants. Of course the internet tournaments are going to have a few teething problems, as they are a new way of doing things. But new does not always mean bad. I believe the CCT tournaments are an important way forward for computer chess, these tournaments will only become bigger and better. > >Thank you. > >-- >GCP
