Here is my list:

Beowulf - Mighty warrior
Bigjump - ...and quick too
Buzz -with some electricity
Mediocre -...against Rybka
Brutus -...no mercy (or no brains)
Yoda -...with a bit of THE FORCE

Almost 6 Days up... 4 days remaining to finalise your predictions.

So far, members have finally made their predictions in the past few days. Shows that there's still some interest in engines rated around 2300.

There's no Bik Jump 2.0.

It's Bikjump 1.8 playing in this tournament.

9 days up and 1 day remaining to finalize your predictions.

Around 2450 games (49 rounds finished!)

So Tony, are you skipping this one? I thought you like engines of all ratings range...perhaps you 'd want me to delay some more so that you could test engines once your new comp arrives? :wink:
