The '''Eighteenth World Microcomputer Chess Championship''' took place from August 19 to 23, [[Timeline#2001|2001]], at [[Maastricht University]], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maastricht Maastricht], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherlands The Netherlands] in conjunction with the [[6th Computer Olympiad]]. The WMCCC as well the Olympiad were held in Ad Fundum which is located on the base floor of the former [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maastricht_University#University_buildings_in_Jekerkwartier Jesuit Convent] (Tongersestraat 53), in 2001 home of the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration of Maastricht University <ref>[http://icga.leidenuniv.nl/icga/news/Olympiad/Olympiad/ 6th Computer Olympiad - Location]</ref> .
[[Junior|Deep Junior]], running on a [[Intel]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tualatin_%28microprocessor%29#Tualatin Dual PIII], won the overall tournament with the title ''World Microcomputer Chess Champion'', third placed [[Shredder]] was the best single processor engine awarded with the title ''Single-CPU World Microcomputer Chess Champion'', while [[Gromit|Gromit Chess]] became ''Amateur World Microcomputer Chess Champion''. The 18th World Microcomputer Chess Championship was the last Microcomputer event. On the triennial meeting of the [[ICGA]] during the [[WCCC 2002]], the members agreed to discontinue the WMCCC on behalf of a yearly [[World Computer Chess Championship]] cycle, since the micro distinction seemed no longer contemporary, considering multiprocessors.

The '''Eighteenth World Microcomputer Chess Championship''' took place from August 19 to 23, [[Timeline#2001|2001]], at [[Maastricht University]], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maastricht Maastricht], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherlands The Netherlands] in conjunction with the [[6th Computer Olympiad]]. The WMCCC as well the Olympiad were held in Ad Fundum which is located on the base floor of the former [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maastricht_University#University_buildings_in_Jekerkwartier Jesuit Convent] (Tongersestraat 53), in 2001 home of the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration of Maastricht University <ref>[http://icga.leidenuniv.nl/icga/news/Olympiad/Olympiad/ 6th Computer Olympiad - Location]</ref> .
[[Junior|Deep Junior]], running on a [[Intel]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tualatin_%28microprocessor%29#Tualatin Dual PIII], won the overall tournament with the title ''World Microcomputer Chess Champion'', third placed [[Shredder]] was the best single processor engine awarded with the title ''Single-CPU World Microcomputer Chess Champion'', while [[Gromit|Gromit Chess]] became ''Amateur World Microcomputer Chess Champion''. The 18th World Microcomputer Chess Championship was the last Microcomputer event. On the triennial meeting of the [[ICGA]] during the [[WCCC 2002]], the members agreed to discontinue the WMCCC on behalf of a yearly [[World Computer Chess Championship]] cycle, since the micro distinction seemed no longer contemporary, considering multiprocessors.
