It's a shame though Crafty also isn't playing. > >Sarah. Hello Sarah We intentionally did not let play Crafty in this tournament for several reasons: 1.) We wanted to have six participants in this tournament 2) Crafty is the most tested free engine and it's playing strength is well known. 3) Having a lot of games with the strong newcomers Aristarch 4.4 and List 4.61 and the latest version of Tao (fast) should be of general interest. 4) Junior 5 was included to have a comparison with an "old" commercial engine. 5) And with six engines only, we took Yace 0.99.56 and the not yet for public released Little Goliath 2000 v3.7 being as the strongest engines according to SSDF.
