Keywords: Software
EPM, also known as El Pimp Masiin (pimp=Pairing In McMahon Pits and I'm sorry for the joke in the name) is a pairing program by Tapio Vuorinen. After trying several different pairing programs along the years, few of the Finnish tournament organizers decided they needed something better and I (Tapio Vuorinen) decided to deliver it. Main features include
EPM has been used to pair three tournaments so far. The software is currently frozen and will be rewritten "some day soon". The current version runs in text console and tested platforms include Solaris/Sparc, Linux/x86 and Cygwin. Windows' text console cannot be stretched big enough, sorry :-) Test runs have been promising, EPM can deliver pairings for tournaments with up to 2000 players in a reasonable time on a standard PC. MK Is it downloadable? Free or commercial? This is a copy of the living page "EPM" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
