Omid, you need to _GROW UP_. No, you have not done a reasonable job in keeping things updated. But also, _NO_ it should not have been your job to do so. You are a participant. If you will simply read my post, I _clearly_ pointed the index finger at the ICGA. That is where the blame lies. These events have been poorly done for several years now, treated like a black hole where information flows in, but _none_ flows out. If you want to take responsibility for a poor organizational model. Fine. You did poorly. If you look more carefully at my comment, a participant should not be involved. This is a _professional_ event. Or at least it is supposed to be such. But from the outside looking in, it is amateur all the way... And no, I am not blaming you for that. But it is still a true description of the state of the WCCC. > >>and I don't think you get paid for your updates on the website > >No. In fact just today I paid 65 Euros for participation of Falcon and journal >subscription :) > > >>but I must admit the >>ICGA should have appointed someone who is not involved in the tournamend to >>maintain the website on a regular basis. >> >>regards Joachim >> >>P.S.: Am I right, that only 8 engines participated in the blitz tournament? > >Yes.
