After a break, I am resuming KGS bot tournaments. I have not yet decided if they will be monthly, as they used to be. The first one will be on April 5th, and is described below. They may include slow (12 hours each per game) and blitz tournaments. I am open to suggestions about their schedules etc.

The April 2009 KGS computer Go tournament will be next Sunday, April 5th the Asian evening, European morning and American night, starting at 07:00 UTC/GMT (08:00 BST)) and ending at 13:00 UTC/GMT (14:00 BST).

There will be only one division. It will be a 6-round Swiss with 19x19 boards and 29 minutes each of main time. It will use Chinese rules with 7.5 points komi, and a very fast "Canadian Overtime", of 25 moves in 20 minutes. There are details at http://www.gokgs.com/tournInfo.jsp?id=447.

Registration is now open. To enter, please read and follow the instructions at http://www.weddslist.com/kgs/how/index.html. The rules are given at http://www.weddslist.com/kgs/rules.html.

Please send your registration email (with the words "KGS Tournament Registration" in the title) to me at maproom at gmail dot com (converted to a valid address in the obvious way).
