Due to my incompetence in setting up wb2uci correctly, the above were in fact
played with CM8000 using its default settings. I am now putting the tournament
back onto its proper track using the CMFun settings (CMFun will run the gauntlet
against the other engines thus far).

Meanwhile: the scores so far with the other engines:

Hiarcs8 - Shredder 12-14
Hiarcs8 - Fritz    11.5-14.5
Shredder - Fritz   12.5-13.5

Fritz    27.5/52
Shredder 26.5/52
Hiarcs8  23.5/52
