It was my pleasure, Nathan. I thoroughly enjoyed running it. Actually i believe the top 6 or 7 finishers really had just as good a chance as any to win it. You may want to consider changing the name from Little Thought to
"Lots Of" Thought. I was impressed with its play.

Best to you

Nice victory by Homer, I wish you had used the newer version of Hamsters as well.

I would have if it had not been so late into the tournament. And the author advised me at that point just to stay with his 0.0.6. Looking forward, however, to getting a chance to run the newer version/versions.
