I finished editing and cleaning up the topic Useful Information:
- added about ten of the most played templates with diagrams and clarifications to the rules; redrew some diagrams;
- at the beginning of the topic, I inserted articles on how to make saves, how to archive games, and how to attach saves to the forum. I think these articles will be useful not only for beginners but also for experienced players; we don't have many people on our forum who are good at compressing save files.
- with Vitaly's permission, I moved his article about the HMM3_Lighter program.
If you have any questions, noticed inaccuracies, errors, suggestions, etc., please contact me via ICQ or write here.
Thank you to everyone who helped develop the topic; special thanks to Lider1 and Wicc.
I hope that together we will continue to collect useful things.
Request to the organizers of the tournaments currently running and using links to this topic in their regulations: please update the links; I probably won't change anything else.
Announcement 2.
I propose that our holders of the "Season Winner" medals compete fairly and play a tournament after autumn ends. We will determine the very best - the Winner of Winners - the Tiger of 2010.
I am ready to run the tournament in any format decided by our respected players.
For example, we can play an End-of-Year Mini-Tournament of Four in December – a round robin among four winners from 2010 – with each playing one or two games against each other.
Or maybe other medalists will join?
