Group 59 decided, thanks to a leader's opponent, who finally resigned...Group 67 will be decided soon, one of the finalists will be timeout

When a player runs out of time, he/she should be autoflagged.

The current holdup is ridiculous.

Group of death: Group 3, honorable mention group 10.
Easiest group (relatively, of course): Group 8, honorable mention group 5 (especially after the withdrawals of hotrocks and clandarkfire).

Hotrocks didn't entirely withdraw, and wasn't entirely booted either. But 'a little chat' did take place concerning his modus operandi which led him, after a short reflection, to pursue other ventures 🙂

Did he admit the use of an chess engine??

Who said anything about 'chess engines'? I never mentioned 'chess engines'. Only the game moderators know anything about engine use, and I'm not a game mod. If I were to suggest someone was an 'engine user' in a public forum, I could be banned.

So, I do not confirm that the 'little chat' with Hotrocks ever mentioned 'engine use'. No, no, most certainly I do not confirm this. It was a private chat - after which Hotrocks reviewed his relationship with RHP.

Now you understand, yes? 🙂
