Information regarding the tournament is posted, in length, at
http://63.229.137.20

Only portions of the event description has been posted here, which may cause
confusion.  The tournament may not appeal to everyone, but the rules were
designed by 10-12 interested posters (ICC (C)omputer accounts...) over the last
month.  I also posted here about a month ago asking for input as well.

So...  Sorry if you feel it is all a "joke" -- I guess it's like forgetting to
vote during election time and then complaining and being disappointed with your
new president.
