Hi Ray,

I could prove that things stated above are well true. Could expose untrue words,
the fact that you tried to convince longstanding CEGT testers to join the new
group, what led to losing some testers resigning totally regarding both groups,
because of not wanting to be in between and could tell about secret actions. And
to what would this lead? To being banned because of a war of nasty words here
surely.

So let things rest in peace. My proposal still is to ignore completely the other
group, because things that happened were too heavy. Could we agree this?

I regret that I mentioned your post bombardment and will not mention your group
again for strictly personal reasons, when you can do the same.

Post as much as you want here. There will come the time when most people will be
fed up with this bombardment.


Here is what I just wrote in CEGT Forum:

Question to testers:

Hi all  ,

okay, we survived the crisis now and I think we have a more harmonious team as
ever before. There are also new testers. I am very happy that you continued to
support CEGT and the idea behind it.

I have a few questions...

1. this mass posting in CCC is somehow disgusting for me. I do not like this
sort of aggressive competition. Would it be okay for you when I post only once a
week a general overview for tournaments and all two weeks a new rating list
40/40? Mass is not class and we can make exceptions when there are new releases
we test quickly

2. what about a concept to distinguish ourselves? I mean we are already doing
this, more amateurs, more fun tournaments and we still have the time to test the
best with some thousand games and additionally can give support tournaments
especially for the authors interested in our work. Your thoughts?

Finally sorry for the quarrels in CCC. I tried to keep my mouth shut, but I am a
person always wanting to tell honestly about my feelings. One of my biggest
mistakes. You know how the split happened and will understand my bitterness. So
I promise to ignore and forget now.

German translation follows later.

Best Regards
Heinz
