Hi George
At first glance, 5 more points out of 35 games seem to be much, but
14 % more sounds less convincing and such things can happen anyway.
We shall continue the [normal] tournament but each round will be
played by The King 3.23 skr with general.ctg too so that we have
a comparision after 70 games per engine (total 280 games). As I have
been away for some days the homepage is not yet updated. This will be
done this evening and also the games The King 3.23 skr general.ctg will
then be ready for download.
