I will write an article about the tournament, but it's a bit delayed, as I've had my hands full so far. From my point, it was a lot of bad luck combined with the inability to test with the new hardware. Oh, and the program was playing like sh*t.. :) At the end of the tournament things were working better and Deep Sjeng finished 4th in the blitz. But at that time, the main tournament was already over. From what I understand, Vincent wasn't able to test in advance at all, so I guess his problems were similar. PS. Fritz & Junior were running on 8 cpu Xeons. My Opteron may have been fast, it can't do miracles :) I hope for the next tournament we can get better hardware from AMD and turn some things around. -- GCP
