I did notice that there were 3 separate tournaments, but I'll hereby revise my statements: ** Genius 6.5 ties for first place out of 10 engines, ahead of Junior 5, Century 3.2, Fritz 6, Chess Tiger 13, and Shredder 4! ** Chess Tiger 14 comes in solo LAST PLACE out of 10 engines, behind TheKing, Yace, and Crafty! Both are still pretty unusual results. On March 06, 2002 at 13:14:32, Mike S. wrote: >The reason for the surprising ranking of the complete list is the mode.
