 I think it is more fair to have Pharaon 3.00b to play a 12 game match or
something with Delfi 4.5. When a tournament starts with a set of rules A, i find
it wrong while the tournament is running to change the set of rules to something
different.
 At the beginning you said that the first 5 will go to the final. Now this has
changed. Bad choice in my humble opinion.

>43.0	- Gandalf 5.1

 So after all, Gandalf 5.1 is out of the final, while before you rerun the
bad-opening games it was inside.

 Why not use the Judge II settings? After the stunning results it had, it would
be VERY interesting to have it play against S8, DF8, H9, DJ8,...etc to see how
it does with the big guys.
 And what are these Alliance settings?

How are you going to do that? I know that inside Chessbase GUI, Chessmaster
can't use it's own book.

Looking forward to the final. It would be difficult for all the engines.....
