Oh well..... I just ran a 1-minute round robin blitz with 10 engines...

 1. Fritz 7          7.0
 2. Chess Tiger 14   6.5
 3. Hiarcs 7.32      6.0
 4. Junior 7         5.5
 5. Ruffian 1.0.1    5.5
 6. Shredder PB      5.0
 7. Crafty 19.01     4.5
 8. Nimzo 8          3.5
 9. Goliath Light    1.5
10. King Schwarz     0.0

I thought an engine-engine match would favour King Schwarz, since it doesn't
ponder, but my favorite engine has done badly yet again. Maybe it's because I
used an opening book? King Schwarz should play better without a book. Or maybe I
should reduce the time controls even more. A 5-second blitz tournament? There
must be some way I can prove that King Schwarz has a 2950 elo.....
