Rules
2009 KOE:
Time control 180+0
Hardware limit/requirement (KOE 2009 will be about deep engines
only = multi processors supporting engines. Hardware will be limited and
required as quads or 4 cores CPUs only. Overclocking is allowed and is up to
the operator whether or not to OC. Any quad can be used. Remote control is
allowed. ) Upgrade to faster quad during tournament is allowed.
14 engines - due to robin, two rounds, system. Tournament will
start last weekend in November = 29-30 November, will last till June 2009.
One round per week. So first round has to be played in week
29.November – 5.December and then so on. Game must be played in advance
if not possible on scheduled date.
Player may use any version of his engine.
Always player with white is responsible to contact opponent. (of
course black can do that first. White player should send email to opponent -
dated not later than first day of particular round it means for first round
last day to send email asking opponent to play game should be 29. November if
no respond from black or black got no email till Wednesday, TDs should be
notified. TDs may take action and or replace player who did not show up. TD
will set new date/time for game which is mandatory to both players on oncoming
Saturday or Sunday(with favour of cooperating player). TD has to be at that
time on server. If still missing one player TD will play that game or will
arrange someone with quad to play that game with particular engine. If TDs are
not able to arrange that match with proper engine then bye engine will be used.

Schedule will be posted on our www.kingofengines.co.uk
site as soon as all players set. KOE 2009 is organized without qualification
tournament, only invited players will participate KOE 2009. TD, me, will send
updated table (cbv file) every Monday to all players
For KOE players will be set email address like:

operator of junior, he or she will get email in his regular email box. To do
that we need your email address u want to use for KOE communication. All
players from 2008 should be familiar with this already used way.
Which engine who? First choice is to offer and invite players
from KOE 2008. Player from KOE 2008 has exclusive right to play KOE 2009 with
the same (if smp) engine. If wants to play with different engine he must find
one which is smp and not yet selected.
Players in game have to set Òsend move evaluationÓ
If player is disconnected during game – game should be
resumed from that position. If its not possible automatically then players do
that manually with approximately same time control as at dc point. If this is
not possible new date should be set – MUST BE IN SCHEDULED WEEK. If not
TD may take action to replace player. Game must be played from dc-ed position.
When set date time for game white player send email to TDs(junior@kingofengine.co.uk,

If player knows he cant play game as schedule set he must
arrange date/time for that game in forward. Opponent should cooperate in that
case.
