For those of you who have not seen it yet, Erdo has created a Fun opening book in CTG format. To quote Erdo:
" It's only for Fun, not more "
When paired with Delfi, I find that I am getting the types of games I often play on Playchess, only offline. I have not tested it with other engines yet. Anyway I think others here might like it as well. Check it out on the Hiarcs website.

PS: I find it kind of nice to get away from the 2700 plus opening books for a change.
A fun opening book ...

Re: A fun opening book ...
Is this a "fun" book in the sense that it has a lot of gambit and unconventional lines? A book like that might make an interesting thematic tournament.
