*** RESULTS ***
After a hard-fought finals, NeuralNed is this year's Tiltyard Open champion! After dispatching General in the semifinals, NeuralNed had to play seven matches against QFWFQ to decide the victor. NeuralNed took an early lead in two games of Atari Go, QFWFQ won two games of Breakthrough, and the two split their matches of chess. Finally, NeuralNed prevailed in a game of Shmup to take the crown. These players were joined on day two by Galvanise, which had a promising day-one performance but was hampered by a bug during its semifinal matches of Gomoku. Congratulations to NeuralNed and its creator Ed Holland!

The 2016 Tiltyard Open will be held on Friday, December 9th and Saturday, December 10th. It will largely follow the format of the 2015 Tiltyard Open, but with a new set of games.
The tournament will be held on the Tiltyard website and once again is free for any general game player to participate, regardless of skill level. The only requirement is that players must be able to complete a full match without error on Tiltyard. (Participants are expected to resolve technical issues with connecting to Tiltyard before the competition starts.)
The first day of competition will start at 10 AM PST (6 PM UTC) and will run for a length of time not yet estimated. It will be the GGP-adapted Swiss format from the ggp-tournament library (github.com/AlexLandau/ggp-tournament). This means that all competitors will be playing matches throughout the day. This will include a variety of games, including games with one, two, and more than two players.
The second day of competition will start at noon PST (8 PM UTC) and will run for a length of time not yet estimated. This will be an elimination bracket of the top four players from the first day, featuring multiple matches and multiple games per round.
If you hope to participate, I’d appreciate if you would RSVP to alandau@cs.stanford.edu with your player name, author names, any affiliation you’d like to note (e.g. with a university or research group), and email address. This helps participants and spectators get a better sense of the competition. It also makes you eligible for a small award if you win.
For more details, you can see the explanations of the 2015 competition. Except as noted above, those details still apply: ggp.boards.net/thread/424/2015-tiltyard-open
