Hello everybody,
in the German Go scene an experimental team league
will start next week. Here are the most important
parts of the rules:
"Freestyle" means that a team may use any sort of help:
hardware and software, human expertise, books, ...
Teams may even use Go bots in autonomous mode.
Play is on KGS, in "Deutsches Eck".
Each team only has to give the name of the team leader
(and the name of its KGS accounts). Team leaders are
NOT asked to reveal their team structures.
Team matches are played at two boards. Komi = 7.0 and
Japanese rules. Thinking times 60 minutes base time
plus Byoyomi with 15 stones in 5 minutes.
Seven teams have registered. For some teams the
