You will find that after each game you must either switch the players manually
or start new game if same colors.

If you make a tourney between these two engines..chessmaster v winboard232c
(which is the lastest version), then while you may not get games 2,4,6, etc
you will get 1,3,5,etc. Then start a new tourney switch players around and
you'll get the games of the other player with the white pieces.

This at least saves the manual restart especially if your absent allday.
