Hi Jouni,

this is right, the problem in my tourney. But the most of the programmer have
big interest on my tourney and I can`t play with older versions.

I believe that all engine who I made updates are not more then 50 ELO stronger
than the older versions. It is a problem but not a big problem. A tournament
with so many games and 1 year tourney time is not better to organize. I tryed to
make my tourney interesting but I have only one machine ... for 50 eMails
dailey, my webpage and my tourney !

Jouni, what do you think about my extra rounds with new engines ?
Interesting or not to play now all games in Tourney A with Nimzo 8, The Crazy
Bishop and in Tourney B with LambChop 10.x (see for an example the extra round
from ZChess and Nejment).

Best
Frank
