What? Undeservedly unknown?? In the world I live, you and Peter Berger are at least as famous and respected as Jeroen Noomen, Erdogan Günes and Sandro Necchi .. Tord Hi Tord Thanks for the kind words but Peter Berger (AFAIK) and myself as bookers are things of the past and so we will soon be covere...

Hi Dann Quite strange that you publish this post without taking into account what Vas said a few hours ago.

It would be nice to have utility for ... Most of these requested utilities already exist ... 1) running multi-engine tournaments with PGN output There are quite a few good ones. My present favorite is Pradu Kannan's PWBTM: http://www.prism.gatech.edu/~gtg365v/PSWBTM/ and ELO-rating; Bayeselo is per...

Rybka just blew a won endgame (R+P vs N+P) against Zap because she played without tablebases.
