Read / Write Limits

[John Metcalf]

Hi,

Is there enough interest in read/write limits for a tournament, or a r/w
limit hill? Jon Newman proposed read/write limits in TCWN issue 10
(Winter 1991) and Bill Shubert ran the x-hill with a write limit of 500
from April 1992. Eric J. Schwertfeger wrote a tutorial:

Below is a round-robin of all the published x-hill warriors I can find.

John
