Sting SF 4 is quasi ready to publish.
Sting always performs strongly in my 8 core tournaments.
Hope you've enjoyed some of the games.

Sting SF 4 seems to be the proper way for my ideas. Sting SF3 contains a serious bug. Sorry.

When do you think you might release Sting 4?
If it's in the next day or two, I'll put it into the tournament and replay the Sting games.

It is not to easy to do an engine which is able to solve some very difficult positions, on dual core, without dirty tricks and to save a very hight level of playing.
I know much more but it doesn;t mean that I can (or may) much more too.
I respect your work and it is better to continue the tornament with Sting SF 3.

No problem. Best not to release until you're happy to do so.
