I am using Arena 3.0

Currently and the last week 6 eng-eng matches (thus 12 x PD) are running on my quad, 6 x as UCI, 6 as WB.

I noticed 3 things:

1. Sometimes Arena hangs after a 3 fold repetition and I have to click "draw" to have the match to continue.

2. Arena restarts after 20 rounds. It's probably a preventive measure due to memory leaks either by Arena or by the engines that are playing.

3. After 2048 (continues) games Arena goes nuts, score display not correct any longer, suddenly starts to play from the start position.

And many more !
That's because I removed aReNa from all my PCs ! :lol:
===============================================
WinBoard of Maestro H.G. Muller is the native GUI for all WB engines !!!!!

Polyglot works also super on WinBoard with the UCI engines.

Well, I know they are some fans of ChessBase Fritzies ! :lol: In this situation use Wb2Uci. A better choice than aReNa !

Played over 10k games in Arena 1.1. with 100 diff. engines. No problems with Arena yet. Been using Arena for 12 years + no problems. I have tried a dozen GUI and fine that Arena is the most
dependable for eng.vs.eng. matches.
