As yet there only has been one banning in this tournament...

And I do hope that people hiting at cheating will fill out fair play tickets...I certainly can't decide if a game was played with a computer

Not much point submitting an FPT because there's no one left to assess them.

The end of RHP as a credible playing forum too. The top of the player table is now a joke; lacks all credbility. Cohonas will be 'champion', as I've said before. We all know why.

Your prophesy has been proved right.

It's your turn when your engine says it's your turn

If thats indeed the case then its a free for all, thought there was some kind of bench were guru's sat and study games along the lines of what was advocated in a posts ages ago?

It is an RHP tradition. Take a look at the 2010 championship Tournament 8986.

My guess - a speculation because I don't know - is that TK has not been cleared by the Mods; that some disagreement then took place between Admin and the Mods; and the Mods have given up. If I'm right, the disagreement could only have been about one thing.

In my time here, games of the RHP champion have always been certified as 'engine-free'. Several 'winners' have been banned and not confirmed as Champion; in some years, runners-up too! The process can be lengthy, but never a year. Hence my speculation.

No need for speculation in the case of Cohonas though. And you don't need Mods to tell you why.
