Hi Richard,

OK, now I must see your work in detail too.
I added your engine in the group of opponents I am using in the future for Wasp testing.

OK, I am looking in version 2.3 and 2.2 too, plays games itself to "critical ECO lines" on my new chess board. To all what I check-out your engine gave me the right lines. A great style, often risky but that is fully OK :-)
means your engine is still under observation here.

Thanks for your program!!

Best
Frank

Does amoeba-nopopcount crash also?
What is your cpu?
I have an old mac mini I resurrected to compile amoeba. Unfortunately, It does not have the popcount instruction so I compile it blindly and I cannot test it myself.
