My main point is:

 

Is ICCA for organizing championships and make them attractive, is it 
offering a service to its paying members ?

 If so:

 Why isn't it helping Marty to participate when a championship without 
Mchess would be less interesting.

 

In the moment there is a question if Goliath (Mr.Borgstaedt) and 
Heureka (Mr.Fischer) are participating with 2 different programs, or 
maybe they have quite similar programs and have a double-entry.

 

If so, the question is: is it senseful to exchange Heureka with 
Mchess?

 Does anybody remember the programs or programmers from JAKARTA ?
