Personal notes and announcements of the webmaster |
May 07, 2004HCL Swiss starts on MondayThe first round of our HCL Swiss tournament will start on Monday, May 10th at 10:00 GMT. Please note that this tournament uses a new chess clock: you cannot accumulate more than 20 days on this clock, no matter how fast you play. Even if you have 19 days and 23 hours on your clock while making your move, you will have at most 20 days and 0 hours thereafter. Please let me remind you (for the last time) that chess engines (anything that "calculates" moves) are strictly forbidden here! Nobody can control that, nobody will even try to prove computer cheating here. I assume that "fair play" means something to everybody of us. BTW: did you pay the membership fee for yourself - or for your computer? The pairings of this tournament are made by Paul van Rooijen from the Netherlands. Good luck - and have fun!

IS THAT NOT TAKING ME FOR GRANTED? AS A FULLY PAID MEMBER I SAW THE AD BELOW ON MY PLAYCHESS PAGE AND WENT TO 'TOURNAMENTS' TO ENROLL. I GET THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE: "Open Tournaments in Class S of ACL Please try again later." ITS TYPICAL OF A BUREAUCRATIC ORGANISATION - NOT AN INTERNET CHESS SITE WHERE YOU PAY MEMBERSHIP! DONT ADVERTISE IT TO ME IF I CANT JOIN IN... PLAY IT WITHIN YOUR OWN 'CLUB' - WHERE I AM NOT FUNDING YOUR PLEASURE... TAKE OFF THE ADVERT IF IT IS OUTDATED - AND INFORM US BY ACTIVE EMAILS OF TOURNAMENTS SO WE DONT PERCEIVE THESE AS A CLOSED SHOP! PLAYCHESS IS LIKE A PREP SCHOOL WHERE YOU HAVE TO RUSH FOR YOUR TEXTBOOKS BEFORE THEY RUN OUT! THE AD...
