I'm live at the icc server to answer all your questions. i play with
a telnet to the computer of bob (quad xeon), and i keep track of a
second notation at the icc server where you can follow me and my game
and all questions you wanna know i'll do my best to answer them.

I did this during the ipccc (german open organized by ulf lorenz),
average 2 dudes followed me. Mainly Bradly Woodward, who runs up
judgeturpin account and beadle account at icc server, and sometimes
people passing by like Steffen A. Jacob. All the other enthusiastic
computer dudes mainly busy winning a few egopoints for themselves at icc,
without a single interest in how all games were going at ipccc, although
i followed all boards and could give comment on those boards without
any problem.

Greetings,
Vincent
