Yes, remember that for Rybka 3, at least, running on 64bit on a quad is close to running on 32bit on an octal.

Oh, Come on! The list ain't that big, it's just a few minutes glance to recognize the engines that you have heard of.

Anyway, Around 3400 games finished (68 rounds finished) I guess I will post it when the 70 rounds is finished.

Btw, Are you going online in ICC, I didn't get a pm from you.

This is the results after 77/78 Rounds: (23/22 Rounds Left)

Code: Select all

Engine X is private engine, but its score will be discounted and it will be removed once the tournament is finished. 

BlackBishop and Madeleine have bugs in it, so their games will replayed.

Yoda's games will replayed now with the older version 1.30 (2.0 had bug in it)

NOW by Mark Lefler is leading, still a close competition.

Can someone send please me the older version Yoda 1.30? I found that I only have the latest 2.0 which had heavy bug in it.

Haha! Wasn't I the only one that put NOW on my predictions? (though, 6th place) If it wins I hope I get something 8-)

No, You're not alone on this, I think Kenny Dail also chose NOW as his 5th choice. :wink:

Still there's some tough competition between Pupsi and NOW.
