Bots disabled

Hi,
When I try to play a bot I get the message that the bots are disabled. I've looked around the forum to see if there is a reason for this but haven't found it.
Do you know why the bots are off and when they will be back online?
I have really started to like this game.
Thanks,
Michael

AFAIK the bots are disabled whenever there is a World Championship or World Computer Championship event game going on, and they will be turned back on when the game ends.

If I remember, I try to leave ArimaanatorFast running from my home computer during event games so that folks have at least one option rated over 1500. But it is only ~1750; for a really strong bot to run during an event game would require the developer to run it on his computer.
