It seems first game today is at 2:30pm (GMT), not 10am. (Second game is
at 6:30pm.) Both John and I were sure it was this morning, and we both
turned up at 10am, so perhaps the change was made late (Nick isn't here
yet to ask). The games the rest of the week will be at 10am/2pm.

First game, at least, will use Many Faces. It may be running under 32
bits, meaning memory will be limited to 1.5Gb or 2Gb. Hardware being
used for the games today is i7-740QM, 4 cores at 1.7Ghz, used as 8
hyperthreaded cores.

Many Faces has shown good improvement on KGS since the Kanazawa
tournament in Sep 2010:

I spoke with John over breakfast and he said he hasn't played any
practice games other than those against Zen and Many Faces that were
posted here a month or two ago. He said he brought a couple of go books
with him but only got 12 pages in before decided to sleep on the plane :-)

Personally I'd have been doing some last minute cramming, but he seems
relaxed and confident.
