Congratulations on winning the tournament.
Thanks for posting the results.

Some questions on the tournament.
What computer hardware did you use? Was it a dual processor?
What was the performance rating during this tournament?
How did you beat the top programs Damage (2nd) and Dios (3rd) but did not beat
last place TD King (9th)?
Where can we find the game moves and analysis of the games?
When is Buggy going to play a human player again?

Mark
