Hi all,

Finally the bullet tournaments it's finished.

Congratulations to all the programmers that accepted to share their engines, result of HARD WORK with me to organize this tournament, that it's a fail for me due to the time that i don't expected to spend on it.

I am very sorry again for what happening, not depending of me.

This the tournament was won by Ares of Joost Biujs.
Followed, and the words are just, by Damage of Bert Tuyt, Kingsrow of Edgar Gilbert and Scan of Fabien Letouzey.

Without forget GWD of Gijsbert Wiesenekker that's rising.

Once again, Congratulations to everybody. I'm waiting for IDames 9 for the next tournament that will be organize after the great tournament of Kryztof.

Sorry for this very bad tournament.

Hi Sidiki,

Thank you for organizing these tournaments! There must be a lot of work involved in playing many of these games by hand.

Because the neural-net of Ares is rather slow compared to patterns I didn't expect it to get a good score with 1 minute games. To my surprise it did better than expected.

When many players are of the same strength there is always some luck involved, just one lucky game can make the difference, next time the outcome will probably be totally different.

Hi Joost,

Thanks again for all. Yes don't easy to do it manually.
Yes the luck was for 1 win, if not there will have 4 1rst.

Congratulations again to everybody, Bert also for doing Horizon much better to leave the out-sider rank.
Mobydam also without forget the big return of GWD.

As promised i will be free for a while and i'm waiting for IDames 9 to run the tournament revenge.

This will be the name of the next tournament.

God bless all of you.

Friendly, Sidiki
