Hi Volker,

I used Spike 1.0 under Arena and had trouble with tablebase endgames.
I tried bith uci and wb and had same problem.

Problem occured in demo mode when I had Spike playing both white and black kbnk
or kqkbb endgames.
Sometimes (I think) black would not play the correct move from the tablebase.
When I selected Arena'a analysis function, Spike seemd to analyze to the correct
move, but in game play mode somehow the wrong move got played.

I tried at least 20 other uci and wb engines that worked fine.
(AnMon, Ant, Crafty, List, Naum, Pharaon,Quark, Ruffian, for examples)

I hope this information is helpful to you.

Regards,
John
