Hi all, I'll reply to this with the bit of info I can provide. I participated on behalf of gnubg team in a past edition of computer olympics. Due to lack of participants (only Frank and me), the format was absolutely free, just some time constranits (having it over before a given time). Atmosphere is 100% relax.
I don't see any particular requirement beside: - having a non-prehistoric computer - knowing how to "operate" gnubg, but I'm sure Frank knows this :) Frank is a great person and a true backgammon passionate. We all know the title is purely symbolical: it's not a short session that is gonna decide which bot is the best. But it's a funny experience and you can always put a beer in the side pot to add some spice to the match :) I think there's some kind of fee to participate. When I participated, gnubg won and I've shipped the medal to one of the main developers (think it was Jon). MaX.
