So from these results we can obviously extrapolate that Chiron is MUCH better on LTC than Komodo.

[lkaufman]

If these results were based on 700 games each instead of 7 then I would have to agree with you.

Congratulations to Don and Larry!

[Graham Banks]

Congratulations to Don and Larry!

Yes - a convincing victory (on the crosstable anyway).

[Jesse Gersenson]

Congratulations!

Was Komodo MP used in all games of the blitz event?

[lkaufman]

I believe it was, but MP was only crudely implemented, "not ready for prime-time" as they say. Roughly speaking, I would say although we were using four cores we only got the benefit a normal engine would get with two. The tournament came a week too soon for us.

Congrats, looking forward to buying Komodo MP once it's out.
