Unfortunately i did not now anything about your engine at that point. I >see that there may be a little confusion about your engine and my account. well currently I'm considering if partecipate to cct-4. I'm willing but I think golem is not ready for this. But if I will I think there will be room for more than a little confusion ;-) >I am >willing to give you the handle/name if you want to have it but i dont know if >that is possible on ICC (of course you have to pay for it (to ICC / not to me) >). >The reason that this account has just a few games right now is that i was able >to convince some ICC responsibilities that, due to a engine change, all my old >games and points where deleted. > >The handle will be used for CCT4 just because I have an appropriate hardware. I not sure that is the right thing to do. Actually Golem play only on Fics and if you exclude the cc-t4 I have no plan to move to ICC. You are the first to use the account "Golem" in ICC so its your right to stay with it. Its a little bit confusing but not wrong. I think a lot of engine using the name ending with X have their name used by other ... this case is not too much different. > > >PS: BTW you should know about the account because we had a little discussion >about the old german UFA film called "Der Golem" (around 1910 / not sure about >the date) and about the subjet of what a Golem is! This film is the reson why i >choosed the name. Maybe you can remember this. Yes I know the movie. The golem myth is a old jewish legend. there are several version. the most famous book about golem is by Meyrink. the legend say that a jewish priest (Rabbi Lowe) was able to build up, with magical art, from unanimate matter, a servant that, a usual in this kind of legends, loose the control and the rabbi had to remove life from him. I chiced this name because my engine try very hard to "rebel", and i like to see a programmer similar to a magician ;-) good look for the tournament :-) glm
