Go up one level in this thread


Great news that the rules are finally up, I am very happy that they have gone
for 9 rounds instead of the 7 used for WCCC in 1999.  60 in 2hr seems like a
reasonable time control.

The time adjusting rule is a bit of a funny one, but it shouldn't have a major
impact.

A disappointment is that there is NO MENTION of any rules regarding the use of
opening books or GUIs.  For example, there is no rule that I can see which would
prevent me turning up and using the Shredder GUI and Shredder book.  I wonder
how many people will be using the Fritz book??

I am still waiting to hear from the organisors about whether they can supply me
with a PC.

cheers,
Peter
