Hi Kurt,
yes it is still early days. Hopefully how certain programs go in this tournament
could help you decide which ones to include in your next tournament.
For the final stage of Super Tournament III I'm going to optimise the powerbook
settings. I haven't really been impressed with the selection of openings using
the settings chosen for this qualifying stage.
Graham.
