EECS22L Chess Game Tournament Results and Scoreboard

EECS22L Chess Game Tournament

• When: 1:00~4:50 pm, Feb.12 (Tue)
• Where: EH1141
• Rules:
  • Every team plays their computer twice against all the others
  • 7 rounds, white vs. black and black vs. white
  • In every round, 6 games are played in parallel
  • Each team provides 2 program users and 1 observer
    • computer vs. player + player vs. computer
    • Program users will feed the program with their opponents' moves
    • The observer will keep an eye on the time Online Chess Clock
  • 15 minute maximum "thinking" time per player
  • Each game lasts max. 20 minutes
  • If a team uses more than 15 minutes, it will lose the game
  • Games may end in "white wins", "black wins", or "tie"
  • Opportunity for Extra Credit for the final chess program release:
    • For each chess game during the tournament, we will provide an incentive of 10 bonus points (attributed to HW5):
      • For a win by checkmate, the winning team earns 10 bonus points (0 for the loser).
      • For a tie, both teams earn 5 bonus points.
      • For an aborted game, e.g. due to illegal move or crash by one team's program, the surviving opponent team receives 5 points (0 for the team at fault).
    • Do the math! There's a total of 420 bonus points available. The best team can win up to 120 bonus points, but it most likely also pays off to just have a player that makes legal moves.
  • Team with the highest score is the winner of the tournament

  May the best team win!
