I also do not support boycotting the tournament. Boycotting brutus is the right decision and I will never buy it even in case that it is going to be the best. Boycotting chessbase because chessbase supports brutus is also something to consider but I decided not to do it but I understand people who do it. If I sell my engine in the future then my preference will be every company that is not chessbase. I need to do a significant improvement for this target but it gets better. Uri
