Life In 19x19

I have notified the PGETC tournament management yearly for the last couple years that the rules on the webpage are outdated. I am afraid it is unlikely they will change it soon.

Updated pairing with winning probabilities according to GoR.

If anyone is interested in win probablilities for the players I have calculated it for the first round. Using the GoR before the rounds. I will update the players' GoR right before the next round and post the new probablilities.

Hello

Actually it this comment was made before I did performance calculations on a player-level. The analysis was done on average GoRs of the teams. Ireland should have been able to beat Cyprus.

I was just playing a game on KGS when my opponent left a game with an unfavourable position to start a new game with someone else. I was wondering if it would be possible to make it impossible for people to start new games when they have unfinished games where the opponent is online? Of course ...

Also I think that the issue is not over how membership fees and benefits have been in the past (where EGF had more sponsors) but how it is now.

Which implies that you want to be an EGF member when times are good (high sponsorship), but are not willing to stick by it when times are hard (low ...

Henric I think we agree on most parts of this issue. I also think that the raise in membership feew was needed to fund EGF after 2009. But I would still protest over the disproportional raise in membership fee for small and large countries. Also I think that the issue is not over how membership fees ...

I would tend to agree with Javaness on this topic. Mostly on the monitary aspects of the problem, though. I do not have enough knowledge of the inner workings of EGF to comment on that aspect.

But as from a small country (Denmark) I can say that we now pay 4 times as much per member as the larger ...

Hi,

Is there anyone that have kifu of the Belgium-UK matches?

I have almost all other matches from League B but did not have time to record those yesterday.

It is right that §3,5) is very clear:

§3,5) If mistakes in colours or time-settings are found within the first six moves the game should be stopped and restarted with correct parameters. After move seven the (wrong) settings are valid for the game. Wrong komi can be adjusted at the end of the ...
