No Thorsten, sorry, but what you say is wrong!

If you look at the PGN's which I posted, you will see that the games have been
played on different days. This was *not* one series of games, but 5 different
small series of games.

The above is *not* an autoplayer issue! As I said in my original post, I see the
same thing happen over and over again when playing matches with other engines
using Winboard (NOT auto232) and although Winboard is set up to reload the
engines after *every* game.

Greetings,

Heiko.
