No one _needs_ to play in any tourney. Actually any program which is able to run at WBEC is automatically included. Chessbase only programs (just 3!) simply don't support other protocols except CB and they just don't care (regrettably) for users who don't like their GUI, or are in favour of a neutral GUI. This will probably never change, as long as they sell enough of their products. Zappa will be there, if it is ready, it is that simple. It is of course Anthonys matter only, if he prefers tourneys with multi CPUs allowed. Regards, Guenther
