Anybody heard of Rooster?

Post by CRoberson »

Its an engine by Alex Neuville. He has requested entry in the
up coming ACCA event and I've never heard of him.

Made a quick check of RWBC, WBEC, ChessWar, CCRL and CEGT and
saw nothing for it. Anybody heard of Rooster?

Recently Rooster was removed from Chesswar due to suspicion that it might be based on Olithink 4.xx.. No explanation from the author yet though.
