Yikes!
I'm running a gauntlet with earlier versions of Sjaak and it seems there was a regression between 399 and 437 (for gothic anyway);


Well, it seems clear that there must be something wrong with this version. It even lost to ArcBishop now...

I am a bit queasy w.r.t. replacing Sjaak by a version that is prone to crashing, without any testing. I am using WinBoard's internal tournament manager now, and I am not completely sure if a crashing engine will somehow spoil the settings for later games (I did make an engine crash non-fatal, but it switches WinBoard back to -ncp mode, which is the logical thing to do outside a tourney). It would be good to test that, of course, but this does not seem the right occasion for doing so!

I will try to run some quick tests with 399 on the other core; I hope this will be conclusive before the next game Sjaak has to play.

The WB internal tourney manager allows me to play a dirty trick, btw, which I am using now. By already specifying a result for the games that were played in the qualifier, I can instruct WB to play a normal round-robin. It will then automatically skip those games. And I already copied them to the PGN for the second division. All it required was editing the tourney file after the tourney started, replacing the result string by

Code:
-results "* **  **      **"


which should skip the game pairs 1b, 2a and 3b (which in the tourney schedule were the ones already played). The first * is the game WB was already playing, but now it will simply think the other games are being played by some other WB instance, and skip them!
