Thank you very much for your contribution, Mig. For me the KC version of events
sounds technically a bit unclear. The internet went down. Why not use another
provider? Why not play from another place on a weaker machine rather than
forfeiting? Those decision could have been made and executed in minutes. For me
it simply sounds like KC grabbed the golden opportunity to throw Junior out of
the tournament. Junior beats Adams? Fine. But Junior destroying Kasparov, the
carefully built brand name of your whole enterprise?

On the positive side, don't you think Juniors excellent performance makes him a
great contribution to your content? Speaking for myself I find human vs computer
chess the most exciting event there is nowadays. Giving Junior the second chance
he deserves could eliminate the grave image consequences of last nights events.

Jürgen.
