Subject: Two tournaments underway in the CM9k GUI

Author: Jason Kent

The first tournament is Mapi vs the default chessmaster (selective search = 9).
I'm starting out with 50 10 minute per side games.  Next I'll do bullet, and
standard last.

The second tourney includes the two engines above, Ruffian 1.05, Aristarch 4.41,
El Chinito 3.25, and the newest version of Thinker.

I don't want to come to quick conclusions, but I think it's interesting that the
default cm9k setting is leading in both tourneys.  I've hardly ever seen default
settings do well outside of the cm gui.  I'm thinking it may be because the
selective search is only 6?!  Making the Selective Search somwhere inbetween
9-12 seems to improve the engine a lot!
