No problem. Congratulations on Daydreamer's automatic promotion to Division 4. Should be interesting to see how it copes. 8-)

Cheers,
Graham.

Congrats, Aaron.

My last spot prediction, Rodin, showed a great improvement
and fought hard for the promotion. Last spot Mediocre 0.34
seems needing an overhaul.

Thanks, guys. I'm almost finished with a new version that will be stronger and add some nice new features. Seeing 1.5 performing well raises my expectations for 1.6 even higher.

I am working hard to improve Rodin. I will release a new version in a few months with I expect a little improvement. I am also happy with its result in this tournaments. This raises my moral :))
