So far, since Nov 2004, we are using the software Sevilla for the pairing and ranking purposes.
This is the 5th time (2004-1, 2005-1, 2006-2, 2007-0, 2008-1) we are going to test and use the software again (we use manual round robin system to handle internal competitions with reference to the Green Book issued by Asian Xiangqi Federation.)
In this coming event, we are using the first 10 records (No. 01 to No. 10) and last 7 records (No. 50 to No. 57) to control the 3名分龄奖 if needed. We use the gender (program) to indicate members of Bishan Xiangqi Club for the allocation of 3名会员奖. We use Category for 3名分区奖 and Team for the allocation of team prizes if required. From the 2006 experience, most of the prizes if not all will be given to the Top 20 over positions. By the way, Swiss-perfect is the standard software used by SIXGA, we may consider to change at a later date. Initially, we plan to invite 王兴南先生与陈团生先生 to handle this coming 碧山杯, but since only 3 teams join the team event, we have decided to handle it in the same way as in 2006 as all works are about the same except we need to compute the ranking for the three teams if needed. This time, we will capture the player name in Chinese too (For 2006 Central Singapore Bishan Cup, we captured names in English only).
