Dates:
February 12&13 2004
or
March 12&13 2004

Site:
The Internet Chess Club (as always)

Rounds:
9 round swiss.

Time controls:

50 + 3

All games to be played in one weekend. 5 games on day 1, 4 on day two.

In the event of a tie situation:

There will be co-winners awarded.

1. No manually operated programs, and all programs must kibitz their evaluation,
and book moves/TB hits if possible. Providing as much information as possible
for the viewers and participants is key here. It should also be noted that 1-3
lines of text is sufficient. No need to scroll out an entire page :)

2. In the event of a disconnection, the party will be given 5 minutes to return
to complete the game and no more than 3 disconnections per game will be allowed.
On the third time, the game will be a forfeit.

3. Only the author or an approved operator (Author must email the TD in such
case to grant approval). There will be no clones allowed.

4. Participants can use any hardware they can bring. Participants choosing to
use remotely located hardware are recommended to have a suitable back up
solution in the event there is an uncorrectable malfunction.

5. No entries will be accepted 2 days prior to the start date of the tournament.
This is to ensure that advertising, websites, and any promotional tools are
accurate at start time. This is also to ensure partitipants have enough time to
test their program on the ICC servers to ensure it is able to play.
5a. In the event that there is a late withdrawl or uneven amounts of players,
the TD can substitute a program in place of the departing entrant to keep the
numbered entries the same. And to avoid a bye round.
