I guess it's possible it may not use the book correctly, but would assume engine output is engine output. Currently I've had Hiarcs 8 running in my lightning 1/1 tournament currently it stands with 505/818 with losing scores so far only against Fritz 7 and ChessTiger 14. It has a tie score with Gambit 18/36 and Deep Fritz and a small plus 18/35 against Hiarcs 7.32. Sarah.
