If you are entered in a tournament, please make sure that you have read the KGS tournament guide.
This is the Open division of the October 2008 KGS Computer Go Tournament.
It is open only to Go-playing programs, known as 'bots'. There is also a Formal division, with more restrictive entry requirements.
It will use 9×9 boards, Chinese rules, and a time setting of 18 minutes each plus Canadian overtime of 25 moves in 20 seconds.
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
The schedule should be convenient for Asians and Europeans. I hope that Americans and others will also compete, leaving their bots connected and running overnight. KGS Computer Go Tournaments have a variety of schedules, to suit all timezones.
Swiss style, Simultaneous Schedule.
There is no prize.
