hi dann,

nice to see that kind of subject header :-)
but i have tested muse much more thoroughly than you have, and can say with
certainty that it is NOT an elite engine. based on my results it should have a
WBEC rating of around 2420. however, i cannot resist posting a game that patrick
buchmann recorded during his test of muse... now that's what i call nice - not
just the result, but also because it really played a nice game!

the bottom line: muse sometimes plays quite nice games, but it also blunders
horribly from time to time. it's simply not a mature engine (yet, i hope).

cheers
  martin
