VERY IMPORTANT- Concerning The Group Freeware RRs!

[geots]

A lull in the action- I am heading to get some sleep and I will post all updates to the RRs when I am back. But there is something that is very important as it looks like there may be a slight bit of it.

No freewares were left out- so no others to pick from. But I am going to run into a problem a couple of times- and I am handling it the way I think is best. There is a particular engine that won't run on the XP box. But when I checked it on the Intel i5- it won't run there either. It is a rather old engine.

So I have to either take another engine out of the RR he is in- punishing that author for someone else's mistake that doesn't concern his engine- or add another engine. Sort of a no-brainer. So I do the best I can- and pick an engine like Zappa 1.1 or Ruffian 1.0.5- ones that are as far away from their commercial counterparts as possible. But are also right in the median range for that group.

What can I say, it's not a perfect world. And I am trying to use good judgement in my decisions of what to add. It will only be in a couple of RRs that this happens. I do the best I can for all of you.

George,

I think a) Zappa 1.1 and Ruffian v1 were not commercial at the time, and
b) their commercial counterparts are no longer active projects (Ruffian 2 can't even be bought anymore).

In conclusion, it would be fun/interesting if you could include them.

I have every confidence in your judgement. In any case, it is your tournament so you can decide
