It would have been interesting to have Cyclone 2.1 in there, being a "next generation" engine like Stockfish or Inert Thinker.

Go Thinker! Go!

This time engine Bright could be a dark horse.

I'm not interested in the results of private engines , I think testing Bright 0.3a would have been more interesting.

Bright 0.3a will be in my upcoming 10th Amateur Championship.
At present it's fighting for it's Division 1 survival because it's trailing E.T Chess 13.01.08 by 1.5-2.5 in a ten game promotion playoff.

I think Bright 0.3a might be little stronger than 0.4a unless a lot of engines have really improved a great deal.

[Ovyron]

Interesting, maybe that's why a new Bright hasn't been released yet? The last one released is the strongest one?

Not according to our 40/40 testing.
