How's the ChessGUI? I'm finding it difficult to install engines in it, it doesn't detect the protocols automatically. I'd have to make sure whether the engine is UCI/winboard 1 or 2 etc
I don't think I had noticed this problem in one of the earlier versions.
I'd vote for CM to win this one by a large margin.

Hi Swami,
I've had very few problems with ChessGUI so far. It is my second favourite GUI behind the Fritz GUI.
With regards to this tournament, the Chessmasters are top seeds, but I'd be surprised if there was runaway winner. Time will tell!
Well, that's good to know, For it to be your 2nd favourite, it must have made a great deal of improvements in the past few months .
I would like to report bugs and feature improvement in ChessGUI, Now I see that Arena is not actively being developed, I'd start testing ChessGUI from now on to see If it's Ok.
My picks for dark horse would be Slowchess or Naum. That'd be obvious.I know that it is tough chance but I'd really like to see Cyrano finishing in the top 2.

Seems to be a nice improvement over Cyrano 0.5, but still early days in the tourney.
I seem to recall that the CEGT testing originally suggested a 100 elo gain, although I'm unsure if that held.

Cheers, Graham.
Most definitely It is improved by a large margin, I have seen many tests on Cyrano and the leap in elo is confirmed.
