Esports were already the fastest growing subsector of digital entertainment, and Covid-19 has only accelerated this trend. • The Esports audience is very valuable for advertisers because it is young, digital native and affluent.

  • Types of Dance Styles
    Types of Dance Styles International Standard Ballroom Dances Ballroom Dance: Ballroom dancing is one of the most entertaining and elite styles of dancing. In the earlier days, ballroom dancewas only for the privileged class of people, the socialites if you must. This style of dancing with a partner, originated in Germany, but is now a popular act followed in varied dance styles. Today, the popularity of ballroom dance is evident, given the innumerable shows and competitions worldwide that revere dance, in all its form. This dance includes many other styles sub-categorized under this. There are many dance techniques that have been developed especially in America. The International Standard recognizes around 10 styles that belong to the category of ballroom dancing, whereas the American style has few forms that are different from those included under the International Standard. Tango: It definitely does take two to tango and this dance also belongs to the American Style category. Like all ballroom dancers, the male has to lead the female partner. The choreography of this dance is what sets it apart from other styles, varying between the International Standard, and that which is American. Waltz: The waltz is danced to melodic, slow music and is an equally beautiful dance form. The waltz is a graceful form of dance, that requires fluidity and delicate movement. When danced by the International Standard norms, this dance is performed more closely towards each other as compared to the American Style. Foxtrot: Foxtrot, as a dance style, gives a dancer flexibility to combine slow and fast dance steps together.

    Chinese Chess - Travel Size 3D MODEL ONLY Makerwiz VIEW IN BROWSER updated 6. 2. 2021 | published 6. 2. 2021 Summary This is a full set of Chinese Chess suitable for travelling. We shrunk down the original design to 60% and added a new lid with "Chinese Chess" in traditional Chinese characters. We also added a new chess board graphics file suitable for printing on paper or laser etching/cutting onto wood. Enjoy! Here is a brief intro about Chinese Chess from Wikipedia: 8C 68 "Xiangqi (Chinese: 61 CB ; pinyin: xiàngqí), also called Chinese chess, is a strategy board game for two players. It is one of the most popular board games in China, and is in the same family as Western (or international) chess, chaturanga, shogi, Indian chess and janggi. Besides China and areas with significant ethnic Chinese communities, xiangqi (cờ tướng) is also a popular pastime in Vietnam. The game represents a battle between two armies, with the object of capturing the enemy's general (king). Distinctive features of xiangqi include the cannon (pao), which must jump to capture; a rule prohibiting the generals from facing each other directly; areas on the board called the river and palace, which restrict the movement of some pieces (but enhance that of others); and placement of the pieces on the intersections of the board lines, rather than within the squares."

  • A MIND SPORTS CENTRE for BENDIGO Discussion Document
    A MIND SPORTS CENTRE FOR BENDIGO Discussion document Contents: A. Mind Sports definitions B. Mind Sports Centre features C. Mind Sports Centre activities D. Alignment with City Planning Community Plan 2017-2021 All Ages All Abilities Plan Health & Wellbeing Plan E. Potential locations F. Extent of interest G. Next steps A. What are Mind Sports? Bridge, chess, draughts (checkers), go (weiqi) and xiangqi (Chinese chess) are recognised as sports by the International Olympic Committee, with mahjong and poker close behind. And then there are events such as the Mind Sports Olympiad held annually in the UK (https://msoworld.com/about/), which features over 60 games, including puzzles such as Sudoku and computer games such as Tetris. Wargaming with miniatures or online, and the whole range of multiplayer online or video games, may also be included. The breadth of scope of a Bendigo Mind Sports Centre could be anywhere along this spectrum. B. What would a Mind Sports Centre look like? At the most modest level, an ordinary (fairly large) hall or factory building could be refurbished to suit. At the most ambitious level, something like the Bendigo Stadium would allow the City to stage world-level competitions in the various disciplines. Features of such a Centre: Plenty of accessible parking, and accessible by public transport Wheelchair access and disabled toilets Multiple playing rooms for the different disciplines Good soundproofing, lighting, heating Catering facilities incorporated, so people can gather before or after events to socialise over a meal or a drink Secure storage for user groups (some groups have significant storage needs) Technology support would be a major component, especially if video games are included, or if the City decided to commit to developing a venue of international calibre for any of the disciplines.

H.J. van den Herik dr. ir. J.W.H.M. Uiterwijk dr. ir. P.H.M. Spronck dr. ir. H.H.L.M. Donkers Universiteit Maastricht Maastricht ICT Competence Centre Institute for Knowledge and Agent Technology Maastricht, The Netherlands March 2006 II Preface The title of my M.Sc. thesis is Analysis and Implementation of the Game Arimaa. The research was performed at the research institute IKAT (Institute for Knowledge and Agent Technology). The subject of research is the implementation of AI techniques for the rising game Arimaa, a two-player zero-sum board game with perfect information. Arimaa is a challenging game, too complex to be solved with present means. It was developed with the aim of creating a game in which humans can excel, but which is too difficult for computers. I wish to thank various people for helping me to bring this thesis to a good end and to support me during the actual research. First of all, I want to thank my supervisors, Prof. dr. H.J. van den Herik for reading my thesis and commenting on its readability, and my daily advisor dr. ir. J.W.H.M. Uiterwijk, without whom this thesis would not have been reached the current level and the “accompanying” depth. The other committee members are also recognised for their time and effort in reading this thesis.
