Did i miss anything. When you announced that? Anyway it seems that books
indeed play a critical role in the engines playing strength.
Again i have to say it's unbelievable the difference of the King's place.
5 more points out of 35 games = 14% more!
Where can i download the 35 new King's games with general.ctg?
And which tournament you will continue? For me the second is better.
